I think we need to have a national seminar regarding Hetauda-Kathmandu tunnel to be sponsered jointly by National Planning commission and NRN and involve all political parties and environmentalists, geographers, etc etc who could assess pros. and cons. of the tunnel ( assume there are big chunk of so called environmentalists like we had for Arun hydro project who oppose the idea) . We also need to reassess the previous studies and surveys done by NPC and other private companies. We all know this project will not be materialized unless we involve multisectors and get the national political commitment from all parties. We need to motivate NRN and NPC. Let's ask people who have personal relationship with NPC and NRN to request them to organize the seminar.
