Keep in the list the names of all those responsible in Kath MahaNagarpalika (formerly Nagar Panchayat), and Physical Planning Ministry who authorized the construction or ignored the illegal construction after taking bribes. God forbid, if a devastating earthquak hits Kathmandu, we should find those people even into their graves and punish them. With all these haphazard constructions, and possibility of an earthquake closer, Kathmandu is like a timebomb ready to explode. Remember, in Gujarat a few years ago, more people were killed due to sub standard construction when an earthquak occured. There is still time to save Kathmandu from becoming a disaster.....must learn a lesson from a recent earthquake in the region.
