Sunsari, May 20: President Ramchandra Paudel has remarked that the importance and dignity of local government have become extensive and profound after the country turned into a federal democratic republic.<\/p>\n

Addressing the inauguration ceremony of Laukahi City Hall built in Koshi Rural Municipality of Sunsari today, he stressed on the need to strengthen activities in accordance with the norms, values and ideals of the federal democratic republic by expediting development works that meet the minimum basic needs and the demands of the people.<\/p>\n

“The interests and aspirations of the people, along with the objectives set by the Constitution and the system of governance, can only be fulfilled through peace, development and good governance. I hope you will pay special attention in this regard,” the Head of State said on the occasion.<\/p>\n

He mentioned that local governments are the closest government to the people and stated that providing services according to public expectations, making facilities available, and conducting development activities are important responsibilities of local governments.<\/p>\n

The President said, “In this context, the construction of such a modern and multi-purpose city hall in this rural area is highly commendable. This project is also a good example of cooperation among all three levels of government in development.”<\/p>\n

Highlighting that Koshi Rural Municipality, situated on the banks of the Saptakoshi River, is significant from both historical and religious perspectives, he recalled that a revolution for ushering in democracy took place at Kushahaghat of the Saptakoshi River, noting that this place is connected with the democratic movement.<\/p>\n

“Important religious sites such as Barahakshetra Dham, Ramdhuni, Pindeshwor, Dantakali, and Budha Subba Temple are located near the Saptakoshi River. Therefore, visiting this area has also given me an enchanting experience. Being significant from historical, geographical, and religious point of view, this place has great potential for tourism development, and I urge all concerned parties to develop it accordingly,” he said.<\/p>\n

President Paudel said that he felt happy to see that the settlement had been rebuilt and development activities were being carried out rapidly in this area where the community had been displaced when the Koshi dam broke in 2008 due to massive floods in the Koshi River.<\/p>\n

He said that he expects attention to be paid to making adequate pre-disaster management arrangements in this flood-affected risk-prone area through the cooperation of all three levels of government.<\/p>\n
