Kathmandu,
Jan. 14: If you are building a new house
within Kathmandu Metropolis, now you have to allocate some area and money for
planting trees.
The
Metropolis has implemented from today a new arrangement to plant at least two
trees while getting approval of the map of the new house to be built now
onwards. The new rule will be implemented from Tuesday as today is a public
holiday.
The
process of registration will begin only after there is area in map for planting
at least two trees before the residential building within the town to increase
greenery in the city and for making healthy.
After
the passing of the map the metropolis building and planting trees should be
done side by side. The Forest Office will recommend various species of plants
and metropolis will monitor. Certification of building will be given only after
inspecting the works.
Residential
houses already built should also plant trees if possible before the house
within two years and if not possible,
green plants should be planted in at least five flower pots in the verandah. If
not complied, the metropolis will charge fines.
Kathmandu
Metropolis Executive Officer Kedar Bahadur Adhikari said it will increase
beauty of the town and will make positive impact in environment.
