Here is the sad thing about #watercrisis in #Kathmandu
Drinking water comes once a week for 5-6 hours which has to filled up in a tank for most households. The #Melamchi project that was supposed to provide water to the valley took more than 23 years to complete. Problem is population has tripled & climate disasters have interrupted operations which has resulted in intermittent supply.
Should we still target for #megaprojects to solve these types of urban water crises? I'm not so sure anymore
