Government Proposes Rs 559.72 Billion to Rebuild 504 Disaster-Hit Projects

The government proposed NPR 559.72 billion for the reconstruction and rehabilitation of 504 projects damaged by floods and other disasters, forwarding the proposal in Kathmandu on October 14, 2026. The plan covers affected projects across the country, with the requested funding exceeding Rs 550 billion for work to address disaster-caused damage.

Proposal covers 504 damaged projects

The proposal sets out a combined reconstruction and rehabilitation plan for 504 projects. According to the information provided, the damage resulted from recent floods and other disasters, and the projects are located in different parts of the country. The stated amount is NPR 559.72 billion.

The proposal identifies the overall funding sought for the affected projects, rather than providing a separate allocation for each one. No project-by-project breakdown, list of locations or division between reconstruction and rehabilitation was included in the information available.

The government forwarded the proposal in Kathmandu on October 14. The reported request signals the scale of the funding demand associated with restoring the disaster-hit projects, but the available details do not specify a timetable for the work or when funds would be released.

Funding demand exceeds Rs 550 billion

The amount proposed is more than Rs 550 billion, placing the reconstruction and rehabilitation request at NPR 559.72 billion. The figure applies to the 504 projects together. The information does not state whether the amount has been approved, how it would be financed, or whether further assessments could change the proposed requirement.

The plan is described as addressing damage caused by floods and other disasters. Beyond that broad description, no specific disasters, project types or regions were identified in the summary. The proposal therefore presents a nationwide funding requirement without further detail on how the work would be prioritized or carried out.

Details on implementation remain unavailable

The proposal concerns both rebuilding damaged projects and rehabilitating them, but the available information does not explain what work is planned for individual projects. It also does not clarify whether all 504 projects would proceed at the same time or in phases. No statements from officials or other stakeholders were provided alongside the reported funding figure.

The report on the proposal is available from Ratopati. Further information would be needed to establish the project list, the proposed funding sources, approval status and implementation schedule. For now, the stated government proposal is NPR 559.72 billion for reconstruction and rehabilitation across 504 disaster-damaged projects.
