Mayor Prakash Adhikari said the local government had previously issued public notices multiple times and held interactions with the people responsible for encroaching upon public land with a request to voluntarily remove illegal structures. "We are compelled to bulldoze the structures as our calls for cooperation went unheard."
Mayor Adhikari stressed that public land must be under government protection and its use for personal interests is not permitted.
