Way paved for construction of Gautam Buddha Intl Cricket Stadiu...
The construction of this stadium, which was initiated by comedian duo Sitaram Kattel aka ‘Dhurmus’ and Kunjana Ghimire aka ‘Suntali’, has been stalled due to financial problems. After Dhurmus and Suntali withdrew their hands from the construction of the stadium, they came under scrutiny many times due to the issue of expenses and outstanding debts. Currently, the metropolis is in charge of the stadium.
Bharatpur metropolis has announced a total budget of Rs 6.31 billion for the fiscal year 2023/24.
