A press statement issued by the alliance says that the minister assured that the government aid will be deposited directly to the bank accounts of flood-hit tenant farmers.</p> <p>On August 27, the Ministry of Agricultural Development (MoAD) announced Rs 1.25 billion flood recovery package. According to the government’s estimates, the flooding last August caused damages worth Rs 5.84 billion to the agricultural sector, affecting 140,646 hectares of land and severely damaging 37,757 hectares of standing crops.</p> <p>Following the decision, some MoAD officials had stated that the flood victims would have to show proof of land ownership or a written tenancy agreement in order to receive compensation for crop damage. </p> <p>This would have been impossible for many tenant farmers, since most lack any written agreement with the landowner, relying instead on informal, verbal agreements. The lack of formal documentation for tenancy might have resulted in many tenant farmers being denied compensation, reads the statement.</p> <p> </p> <p> </p> <p> </p> ', 'published' => true, 'created' => '2017-10-16', 'modified' => '2017-10-16', 'keywords' => '', 'description' => '', 'sortorder' => '6510', 'image' => '20171016125123_third alliance.jpg', 'article_date' => '2017-10-16 00:00:00', 'homepage' => false, 'breaking_news' => false, 'main_news' => true, 'in_scroller' => false, 'user_id' => '16' ) ), (int) 6 => array( 'Article' => array( 'id' => '6726', 'article_category_id' => '1', 'title' => 'EU Transfers Rs 4.8 Billion Grant for Earthquake Reconstruction', 'sub_title' => '', 'summary' => 'October 16: The European Union (EU) has provided the Government of Nepal with a grant of 40 million euros (NRs 4.8 billion) for reconstruction.', 'content' => '<p>October 16: The European Union (EU) has provided the Government of Nepal with a grant of 40 million euros (NRs 4.8 billion) for reconstruction.</p> <p>Issuing a press statement on Monday, the EU said this is the second tranche of the 105 million euro support for Nepal-EU Action for Recovery and Reconstruction (NEARR) programme and follows an earlier disbursement of 50 million euros made in July 2016.</p> <p>The statement said that the grant was released against a set of performance indicators and provides the means to accelerate reconstruction efforts.</p> <p>“Budget support uses country owned-mechanisms to give money directly; it reduces transaction costs, strengthens government systems and fosters self-reliance,” reads the statement.</p> <p>The EU also congratulated the Nepali authorities and all stakeholders involved for the progress made so far in advancing reconstruction under the coordinating role of the National Reconstruction Authority (NRA). </p> <p>“It is important that the current momentum be maintained and indeed increased in the time ahead so as to "build back better" for the benefit of the Nepali people including the most vulnerable," said EU Ambassador designate Veronica Cody.</p> <p>The EU expressed its belief that the decentralization under way in Nepal will provide opportunities to involve the newly elected local governments in accelerating reconstruction.</p> <p>“Since the education sector was the public sector most severely affected by the earthquakes it is vital that specific attention is paid to rebuild safer schools as quickly as possible,” the statement said.</p> <p>The EU said it will remain engaged to contribute to these tasks through measures which are complementary to the NEARR programme – notably the NEARR Technical Assistance Facility and the accountability initiative with Transparency International Nepal – as well as through the ongoing policy dialogue and a new budget support programme in the education sector. </p> <p> </p> ', 'published' => true, 'created' => '2017-10-16', 'modified' => '2017-10-16', 'keywords' => '', 'description' => '', 'sortorder' => '6509', 'image' => '20171016124031_eu.jpg', 'article_date' => '2017-10-16 00:00:00', 'homepage' => false, 'breaking_news' => false, 'main_news' => true, 'in_scroller' => false, 'user_id' => '16' ) ), (int) 7 => array( 'Article' => array( 'id' => '6725', 'article_category_id' => '1', 'title' => 'Haphazard Construction of Roads hits Trekking in Annapurna', 'sub_title' => '', 'summary' => 'October 15: Haphazard construction of roads has affected the trekking routes in Annapurna Conservation of Area.', 'content' => '<p>October 15: Haphazard construction of roads has affected the trekking routes in Annapurna Conservation of Area.</p> <p>Earlier, it used to take almost a month to explore the whole area, but now with the construction of motorable roads, it does not take much for one to travel through the area.
