Kathmandu, May 6: The Ministry of Land Management, Cooperatives and Poverty Alleviation has directed the concerned individuals, organizations and agencies to immediately evict the land taken under usufruct and the structures built on it.
The Ministry stated that parties who previously had usufruct rights were given six months to convert the land into a lease as per the Section 21 (2) of the Government Land Registration, Use and Lease Policy (Second Amendment), 2079.
In this connection, the former Department of Land Reform and Management had published notices on 31 Jestha 2073 and 21 Baisakh 2074.
However, the Ministry has stated that the usufruct rights have legally expired automatically for individuals, institutions and agencies who did not apply to convert within the stipulated period.
The Ministry has informed all concerned to deposit any remaining amounts payable under the agreement into the government treasury and to vacate such land and structures built on it immediately.
