Udaypur, Oct 13: Chaudandigadhi Municipality of Udaypur district has provided financial assistance to the downtrodden Sada people as the festival spending. Each family is handed over Rs 3,000 Dashain expenses.
The Sada (Musahar) community is extremely poor, which finds it difficult to manage expenses on its own. Total 228 Musahar families received the Dashain spending under the social security schemes.
The municipality claimed that it is the first time that such programme was launched targeting the Musahar community. The amount was distributed to the extremely poor families with the aim of making it easier to celebrate the festival, according to chief administrative officer Roshni Devi Karki.
The money was handed over to 100 Sada families of Chaudandigadhi Municipality Ward No. 5, while 44 families of Ward No. 9, and 23 families of Ward No. 10. The municipality stated that the assistance would be provided to 61 Musahar families of Ward No. 2 as well.
Handing over the money, mayor Kaluman Lama viewed the programme was introduced by keeping in mind the poor economic condition of the Musahar community. Although little, the assistance would help restore happiness to them, Lama hoped.
After receiving the Dashain expenses, Shyam Kumari Sada reacted that they were very happy with the municipality’s support.
Similarly, Sarita Sada shared her plan to buy new clothes for children with the money she received. —-
