Kathmandu, April
8: The Ministry of Federal Affairs and Local Development has decided to remove
hoarding boards placed at various towns out of the Kathmandu valley.
The Ministry has
issued a circular a week ago asking the bodies concerned to remove hoarding
boards in Dhulikhel, Banepa, Dhangadhi, Siddharthanagar, Dharan, Biratnagar,
Birgunj and Ghorahi by this current fiscal year.
The move is
aimed at maintaining urban beauty and minimising the road accidents, Ministry's
Joint Spokesperson Narayan Prasad Pandey said.
Hoarding boards evoking erotic feelings will be removed first and others put up for commercial purpose and as advertisements will be removed under the second-phase. Earlier, hoarding boards placed at different parts of Kathmandu Metropolitan City and Lalitpur Sub Metropolis were removed.
