Data collection for displaced squatter families speeds up
Dedicated help desks have been set up on the western side of the stadium, where displaced families are filling out forms and submitting necessary information.
KATHMANDU: Authorities have intensified efforts to document families displaced after the removal of informal settlements across the capital, with registration numbers steadily rising.
As of now, a total of 3,111 affected families have registered their details at the Dasarath Stadium in Tripureshwor, where a centralized data collection drive is underway.
The initiative, launched on April 25 (Baisakh 12), is being jointly carried out by the Bagmati Civilization Integrated Development Committee and the Kathmandu Valley Development Authority.
Dedicated help desks have been set up on the western side of the stadium, where displaced families are filling out forms and submitting necessary information.
Officials say the process aims to build a comprehensive database to facilitate relief and rehabilitation planning.
To support affected residents, essential services have also been arranged within the stadium premises.
These include health check-ups, food provisions, and assistance for obtaining national identity cards.
The Kathmandu Metropolitan City (KMC) is overseeing the overall coordination and management of the operation, ensuring that immediate needs of displaced citizens are addressed alongside data collection efforts.
