The Road Division Office in Charikot has officially terminated 22 development and construction contracts in Dolakha that were left abandoned by contractors for a long time.
Contracts Terminated Due to Negligence
The Road Division Charikot, operating under the Ministry of Infrastructure Development, decided to cancel the agreements after the assigned builders failed to move the work forward. These projects had been stuck since the fiscal year 2079/80, causing significant delays in local development.
The office had sent multiple written notices to the contractors to start the work, but they did not pay any attention to those requests. Because the builders ignored repeated warnings, the division was forced to break the legal contracts to handle the situation.
Legal Action and Recovery of Costs
Following the termination of these contracts, the ministry has now started the process for legal action against the parties involved. The authorities plan to evaluate the total damage caused and the cost required to finish the remaining construction tasks. Once the amount is calculated, the contractors have to pay the money back within 30 days as a government due.
