Prime Minister Oli briefed about Land Commission’s work progress
The officials of the Land Problem Resolution Commission have apprised Prime Minister KP Sharma Oli about the progress of the work done by the commission so far.
Minister for Land Management, Cooperatives and Poverty Alleviation, Balram Adhikari was also present on the occasion.
Chairman of the commission, Hari Prasad Rijal, informed that a standard has been prepared to identify landless and the squatters who have not received housing and government land for the past 10 years, as well as those who have been living on government, public, and leasehold land for at least 10 years without proper arrangements.
The commission officials mentioned that it would be easier for the commission to pursue its work if the bill to amend some land-related laws in Nepal were passed.
Prime Minister Oli expressed the confidence that the bill under consideration in Parliament would be passed soon and instructed the commission to proceed with the identification of landless Dalits, squatters, and unregulated settlers in a planned and accelerated manner.
The government formed the commission on October 30 last year.
