Kathmandu, Aug 15
The
Millennium Challenge Account (MCA) Nepal clarified on Sunday that the land it
is acquiring to build a sub-station at Ratmate of Belkotgadhi Municipality-7 in
Nuwakot district would be the property of MCA-Nepal not the donor agency
Millennium Challenge Corporation (MCC).
“All the
lands acquired for the transmission line project funded under the MCC grant
support would be the properties of the MCA Nepal which is an agency under the
Ministry of Finance,” it said in a statement. “After the dissolution of the
MCA-Nepal, the substation, other structures build there and the land would be
handed over to the Nepal Electricity Authority or the agency chosen by the
government,” it added.
Expressing
the concerns about the news stories appeared in some media, MCA-Nepal said that
all properties would be registered in the name of it.
All the
works related to the substation will be conducted by MCA-Nepal as per the
Development Committee Act, 2013.
As per
the agreement with the MCC, no property will remain with the MCC.
