110 million liters water a day from Melamchi Project being distributed in Kathmandu Valley

KATHMANDU, Dec 14: Of the 175 million liters of water brought from Melamchi River in Sindhupalchowk district under the Melamchi Water Supply Project, 110 million liters has been distributed in the Kathmandu Valley since December 9. 

Since the water was not regularly pumped into the new distribution network made by the Kathmandu Upatyaka Khanepani Limited (KUKL) Project Implementation Directorate regularly, it was taking time to adjust the sequencing in some of the valves of the distribution system. 

KUKL will distribute 120 million liters of water from Wednesday evening, informed KUKL's Spokesperson Prakash Kumar Rai.

Of the 10 tanks built for distribution of Melamchi water, eight tanks have been filled with water from the project. The tanks supplied with are located at Bode, Katunje, Khumaltar, Min Bhawan, Mahankal Chaur, Pani Pokhari, Anamnagar and Balaju. 

Water tanks in Kirtipur and Bansbari will be filled within four days, shared Spokesperson Rai.
