Troubled Water| 31mins
Director: Govinda Nepal | Producer: Govinda Nepal
Focus Years: 2014 | Country: Nepal
Synopsis:
Government data shows Kathmandu Valley requires 280 million liters of water per day. Only 1/3rd of the demand is currently being met, yet 220 million liters is extracted from the ground daily. See what the faith of traditional dug wells and stone spouts will be. We heard about Melamchi 30 years ago when we were teenagers. We have grown old now, and water from Melamchi still has not come. What is the government doing? Just selling dreams? Making our issue a begging bowl? It's corrupt! It's time to ask why, even after 30 years, people cannot ask questions about Melamchi. KUKL supplies water extracting from the ground. No work has been done to conserve the source. If the situation continues, Kathmandu will dry up in 20-25 years.
