KATHMANDU, Nov 14: Retrofitting of north, east and southern parts of Singha Durbar, the main administrative hub of the country, would be completed within a year.

Joint-Secretary of NRA, Rajuman Manandhar said that Infrastructure Engineering Research and Consultant Pvt Ltd has been assigned to carry out further study about the retrofitting of the west part of the building.
