Kanchanpur : The Kanchanpur-based Amar Community Forest has constructed an embankment at the cost of Rs 6 million for the control of swollen rivulet.
The community forest located in Bedkot municipality-8, Rautela built the embankment with a length of 1,000 metres along the Trishuli and Rautela rivulets.
It was shared that the forest did this from the amount received from the sale of wood, fodder and gravels.
