Pokhara is one example but this is the scenario of entire Nepal. Development goes unchecked regardless of the location and its impact on the surroundings. And most hotels are built with short term benefits.


Remember countless big/small hotels that popped along major highways especially Mugling. Imagine how much raw sewage and garbage are spewed into river Trishuli every day and at what rate???


I would very much like to study such impacts if get funded.


Haphazard development and urban sprawl are the results of improper planning and impact assessment studies.


But a country there is constact political strife between 22 parties with stupid leaders and the only thing they care about is KURSI and self development - who would care about the hotel/roads development and their impacts????


God save mother Nepal.
