ACHHAM, June 20: Standing committee member of the ruling Nepal Communist Party (NCP), Bhim Rawal, has said the government should construct the Upper Karnali Hydropower Project on its own.
Nepal government is capable enough to construct the project, he asserted during a program organized by NCP Accham at Binayak in the district on Wednesday. The GMR Company of India must not be handed over the responsibility for the construction, he underscored, pointing out the government's activeness to accomplish the project in time.
