Baglung–Industrial villages are to be developed in two local governments for the promotion of entrepreneurship through the use of local resource, skills and technology.

Baglung municipality and Tarakhola rural municipality have come up with the concept of developing industrial village in line with the national goal of ‘One local level, one industrial village’.

The government has approved the concept for developing industrial village following preliminary feasibility study in both the areas, said Baglung municipality mayor Janak Raj Poudel.

“The industry ministry has called for signing Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) to this effect next week”, he said, adding, “Industrial village is sure to be established. We will start necessary preparation this year”.

Industrial villages are to be established with the investment and coordination among all three tiers of federal, state and local governments.

It may be noted that the state government had recommended the federal government for approval for the establishment of industrial village as per the demand of local level. The local level needs to make the land available for industrial village. Baglung municipality has managed land at its ward-13, Kalakhola for the purpose. “Almost 85 ropani public land is already available there and we will purchase additional if needed”, said mayor Poudel.
