Introduction

The Constitution of Nepal (2072) established a federal system with federal, provincial, and local levels, clearly defining the responsibilities of each. Under this provision, provincial-level duties such as electricity, highways, physical management of government offices, and other infrastructure-related tasks fall under the province’s jurisdiction.

Under this provision, provincial-level duties such as electricity, highways, physical management of government offices, and other infrastructure-related tasks fall under the province’s jurisdiction. Following the restructuring of the Karnali Province ministries in 2078, responsibilities related to physical infrastructure, transportation, and urban development were assigned to the Ministry of Physical Infrastructure and Urban Development. According to the revised work division of 2078/09/13, this ministry oversees provincial roads, transportation, housing, office construction, and urban development plans, along with monitoring, evaluation, coordination, and research. The Infrastructure Development Office, Rukum, operates road projects, multi-year plans, bridges, the People’s Housing Program, and building works in Rukum District. It is one of the ten Infrastructure Development Offices established across Karnali Province.
