Farmers demand service center

Farmers of Duhabi in Sunsari district have asked the Ministry of Agriculture to reinstate the Agriculture Service Centre in Duhabi, state-owned news agency RSS reported Sunday.

The then Technical Assistant of the center Krishna Prasad Subedi once again reminded the secretary at the ministry of the demands of the people recently.

The demands also include restoring Subedi, an employee with excellent performance and popular with the farmers in Duhabi, to his post. He was transferred through political pressure first to Syangja and is now in the Okhaldhunga Agriculture Development Office.

Buildings and land worth tens of millions of rupees have become useless with the removal of the center, and the transfer of the employee has given a negative impact on the services, the farmers said. nepalnews.com June 29 09
