Panchkhal children’s organization, wrote a photo and requested to stop the construction.
According to the children’s organization, the central office of the children’s organization held a meeting with the district administration chief after registering a letter with the mayor. Vice Chancellor of Kathmandu University P.D. Though Bhola Thapa and Prof. Manish Pokhrel, dean of Kathmandu School of Engineering, have repeatedly agreed to come to the meeting and resolve the issue, they did not come, said the president of the organization.
”Initially, we made repeated requests, both verbally and in writing, to stop construction,” she said. But they showed a very hepatic tendency.’
She said that the Dean of the Kathmandu School of Engineering, Prof. Manish Pokhrel, had
assured her that he would come for the discussion after seeing the home entry program of the university on social media on the occasion of saraswati worship.
The university has entered the newly constructed building of the School of Engineering and
School of Science on the land of the children’s organization on the occasion of Saraswati Puja on Sunday.
She said, ”How can photo of house entry of the building be published which was built on the property of children’s organization without any discussion.” I never imagined that educated people from such a prestigious institution would work in such a superstitious style. ‘
