Financial Analysis of Water Source Protection Work of Watershed Management

Abstract:
Water supply is critical in many areas of the Middle Mountains in Nepal. The major hardships in terms of the drinking water is being experiencing in the altitude at the winter season and in the rainy season effects the down stream due to the excess water. The water supply work is good in such situation its economic gain is of secondary importance while the first importance is to provide the safe services and care the people from difficulties. So that, activities implemented in the rural areas can be evaluated economically or financially to the measure the financial efficiency in terms of services. For the described situation, the research paper tries to evaluate the water source protection activity financially. This report basically reflects the different streams of costs and benefits for the targeted activity to review the financial benefits from the activity.
The study is based on primary and secondary data analysis. Primary data were collected from the field (Five Community Development Groups, Kanthekhola sub watershed management area of Baglung District). Methods were Participatory Rural Appraisal (Focus group discussion, semi structured interview, household visit and the direct observation of the construction works with CDG members. Secondary information were collected from different official reports, DSCO Baglung, District development committee Baglung, Baglung municipality and the five-year plan of the CDGs.
Financial analysis has carried out for the direct input and output of construction and benefit received from the water source protection work and agricultural practices (Home garden, Kitchen garden, Vegetable farming etc), for the calculation of Benefit Cost Ratio, Internal rate of Return and Net Present Value. Indirect input and return analyzed to check the service and the farmland benefits from the intervention. Basic statistical tools were used to analyze the socioeconomics and the evaluation of the best project. Strength, weaknesses, Opportunities and Limitations (SWOL) analysis is carried out in the field and documented.
On the basis of analysis it has shown that Water source Protection work has a huge advantage of health improvement and income generation. Viable option to maximize financial return is the replacement of conventional agriculture practice with the income generation activities like vegetable farming. The programme is equally beneficial to reduce the workload of people to the water collection for the domestic purposes. It is also worthwhile to conserve the soil and support to the environmental improvement by reducing the downstream defects in favour of the people's welfare. The profit is very attractive; investment on fruit tree plantation, kitchen gardening, and compost pit preparation started, income generation expected, the benefits are manifold as compared to the conventional agriculture.
Considerations for the improvement of the works might be welfare policies and special programs favourable to the people, awareness about the soil erosion and conservation, education of the positive effects of the downstream due to the intervention, explore the regional market for the vegetables, and design the integrated watershed management activities.

Civic Education for Consolidating Relationships between People and Local Self Governance

In the absence of civic education, youths across the nation are shying away from politics. Especially college goers in urban and semi-urban areas seem to have misunderstood politics. They take politics as a dirty game. There has been a growing trend among youths to be indifferent from politics and social activities. If this trend continues, sociologists fear that there will be an abyss in the country's politics. The abyss or the gap can debilitate democracy to a large extent.
Even though leaders of country's major political parties seem to be least bothered about democracy and the country's sovereignty; social activists, scholars and workers of different political parties here are deeply concerned about the national issues, democratic values and development. Setting aside their ideological differences, the local people here echoed their voice for development and democracy.
While presenting a working paper on "Civic Education for Consolidating Relationships between People and Local Self Governance" organised by the Nepal Foundation for Advanced Studies (NEFAS) recently, Shiv Raj Dahal underlined the need for generating massive awareness among youths.
Youths are the torch-bearers of the nation, if they become indifferent from politics; the mainstream politics fails to move towards right direction, he said.
When politics takes a wrong course, the chances of failure of democracy are higher. To be more precise, there is likelihood of dominance of regressive forces (wrong-hands) in politics which to a large extent can jeopardize democracy. And when democracy becomes weak, good governance cannot be expected, said Dahal while giving a brief outline of his working paper.
"This is high time for each and every citizen - especially youths across the nation to be aware of political development taking place in the country. If youths turn a deaf ear to the politics, that will be a disaster, he said.
Youth's participation in social activities would have a domino-impact in the social transformation. Hence, youths should be involved in different facets of society, he added.
Growing trend of going abroad for seeking employment and permanent residency (PR) shall make the national politics hollow. Hence, civic education is a must for social transformation and development.
However, youths should be provided with an ample opportunity for their economic uplift. Politics is based on economics. He said
Following Shiva Raj Dahal's presentation, Prof. Dr. Gunanidhi Sharma spoke about the economic aspect of civic education. He said more and more youths irrespective of their ideologies should be involved in productive and meaningful activities in the society. Economy of the nation is based on three components namely - state, private sector and cooperative.
If economics fails to support politics, there will be a dearth of participation, democracy, human dignity; he said adding that the country's politics has become more capital-(Kathmandu)-centric. Politics, guide economic activities and economic activities are the fundamental to the politics.
Presenting a gloomy picture of economic indicators, he said that per capita income in Nepal has just reached US$500, while neighboring countries like India and China have US$ 3500 and US$ 7500 respectively.
This tardy growth shows that we are failing in development process. Who is responsible for the failure as of now? They are the political actors who should be held responsible for tardy economic growth. If politics fails to take right course, country's economy cannot move a head, he said.
Our economy is based on remittance, but we have not calculated the cost side, he said.
Prof. Sharma, former vice chairman of the National Planning Commission said that the data system. Our data system is not reliable.
The poverty has come down to 25 per cent from a 32 per cent, but the reality is not different. Poor has become poorer and rich has richer. The gap has further widened in the recent years, he said.
Problem in economic governance has to be resolved to attract youths, he said.
It is the responsibility of the state to attract youths for social development. If we fail to address the problem in the economic governance, I doubt the country shall plunge into an abyss of violence and lawlessness, he said.
If the state fails to provide opportunities to the youths, obviously they tend to shy away. It is the responsibility of the state to create opportunities for the people in the society. Political actors, government should act honestly.
Prof. Sharma also spoke about the impact of Bilateral Investment Promotion and Protection Agreement (BIPPA) between Nepal and India. Sharma, the former vice chairman of the NPC strongly claimed that BIPPA will have more serious impact in the country's economy. The BIPPA has reinforced the 1950 Treaty between Nepal and India which is in the interests of India.
Prof. Dr. Ram Kumar Dahal, while talking about the need for political awareness said that youths should not be kept aside of politics. They should be a part of politics and social activities.
Prof. Dahal stressed the need for generating awareness among youths. They should be informed that politics is not a dirty game. They should be encouraged to do politics for the right cause. Young generation presume politics as a dirty game played idiots. This is totally a wrong concept. They should be given a message that politics is not a dirty game, but it should be guided by the right persons who are honest and integrity towards society, he said.
Prof. Dahal claimed that the civil society in our context is guided by political parties. If this trend continues, the problem will arise in making the parties alert and ultimately the political parties cannot take a right course. Leaders of political parties should go along with the people. They should embrace the feelings of people in true sense. Prof. Dahal further said that political leaders should act in such a way that they should be able to solve their problems at state level.
But it is a great irony that our leaders who get elected by the votes of these people completely ignore them. This is the main reason as why youths are shying away from politics. However, we cannot remain tightlipped. Someone has to initiate the process of educating youngsters. Hence, we should play a proactive role to bring youths into the mainstream of politics, he added.
Chandra Dev Bhatta, programme officer of Friedrich Ebert Stiftung (FES) highlighting objectives of the programme spoke about the prime objectives of the FES. He explained how first President of Germany Friedrich Ebert initiated the process of institutionalising social dialogue for the uplift the society. Without civic education, people cannot realize the essence of democracy. Civic education teaches people to be responsible and dutiful. Civic education teaches citizens to be good citizen.
Political dialogue, social dialogues among youths should be encouraged for social justice. If youths shy away who is going to take part in the politics for social change?
Bhatta, an expert in political economy, noted that politics has been distorted. Instead of becoming for the people, politicians have created distance from the people. By the people means it has been 'buy' the people and for of the people it has become 'off the people', he said.
Bhatta said that youths should be aware of all types of anomalies taking place in the society. Whatever the political ideologies they have, they should not lag behind for common cause.
Earlier Prof. Ananda Shretha, Chairman of the NEFAS highlighted the objectives of the NEFAS's campaign on civic education. No society can make progress without civic education, hence NEFAS, with the support of FES has been organising civic education programme across the nation. We expect that this type of civic education programme would be helpful in generating awareness among youths.
Besides, our programme would help accumulate opinions across the nation. This ultimately, helps us to put pressure on policy makers at the national level.
Urging participants to float their opinions, he said "Your opinion bears a lot of sense to formulate policy". We are organising this programme to collect your views; this in totality helps policy makers as what policy should be formulated.
From the chair, Mana Bahadur Khattri, lecturer of Dhaulagiri Multiple College (DMC) expressed view that such interaction programme would largely help to build opinion and galvanize relations between youths in the society.
Such programme would generate awareness among the youths. Hence, such civic education programme should be encouraged for youths.
Floor Discussion 
Hrishi Ram Sharma, a local intellectual and political activist said that political parties and their leaders should be cautioned with regard to development and democracy.
Today's youths need proper guideline for that they are in dire need of civic education. At a time when the values of civic education are dying down, such programme organised by the NEFAS would greatly contribute to generate awareness among youths.
Each year, an awful lot of youths are going abroad, if we fail to educate youths about the value of democracy, country's future will be in jeopardy.
Hence, we should make youths more aware about their rights and the values. If the current trend of going abroad continues, democracy cannot take a right course. The youths who are torch-bearers in the society cannot give anything to the society; Sharma said adding that "Dahal's working paper should be more specific about the role of youths' in capitalist model and socialist society.
Tek Bahadur K.C, district secretary of the UCPN- Maoists, said that local youths were very much aware of their rights. He cautioned not to misinterpret youths' role in national building process and social changes.
K.C said that left parties across the nation need real education in true sense. However, he raised an objection that the decision making process in the left parties is not governed by the centre alone. The left parties often make decision on the basis of opinion at the grassroots level.


Kazi Gaunle, a local social activist said that different people have different understanding. People in other countries have their own model of democracy. In the same way, we should have own model. Hence the paper should clarify as how youths could be mobilised for common cause in the society.
Prakash Poudel, Chairman of District Committee Nepali Congress said that the election should not be based on the caste, religion. This creates a sharp division among youths. Developmental activities should take place on the basis of reciprocity, he said.
This type of interaction on civic education would largely help in uniting youths in the society for development.
Bal Bahadur Lamichhane, Chairman of District Red Cross Baglung expressed grudges over the politicians and political parties. None of the political leaders are bothered about the deteriorating situation of law and order. The entire nation is on the verge of disintegration as the political parties and their leaders are squabbling over the political power. The true nationalism should be defined.
Mana Kumari K.C, a school teacher underlined the need to make common efforts to overcome social anomalies. The atmosphere of trust should be built among youths, she said.
Responding the queries of participants, Shiva Raj Dahal, the resource person of the workshop vowed to incorporate all sorts of opinions at the interaction programme.
Nepal is rich in resources. What we need is organisation capacity. To strengthen organisation capacity, civic consciousness must improve. Leaders should have skill, honesty and capacity.
Hence, everybody in the society should have an adequate sense of shouldering responsibility with a greater degree of honesty.
Prof. Dr. Gunanidhi Sharma, while responding the queries about the impact the BIPPA said that it was more regressive than that of the Mahakali Treaty. It would have greater impact in the country's trade and economy.
Prof. Ram Kumar Dahal, further said that political awareness among youths should be encouraged for that social dialogue is a must.
Finally Chairman of the programme Mana Bahadur Khatri, also underlined the need for social dialogue. Such programme would act a catalyst to bring the youths into a common forum.

The Pokhara- Baglung Highway, which was obstructed from Wednesday noon, has resumed shortly and so has the Maldhunga- Beni road stretch that was obstructed from Wednesday morning.
Vehicular movement resumed after an agreement among the relatives of the persons injured in the bus accident that took place at Dhikur Pokhari of Kaski four days back, the staff and the administration of Dhaulagiri Bus Entrepreneurs Committee was forged.
The relatives of the deceased will get compensation for their loss and the injured will get reimbursements of the treatment expenses, as per the agreement.
The vehicles en route to Myagdi and Mustang from Kathmandu and Pokhara that were left stranded due to the obstruction have already headed for their destinations following the agreement.
One person had died and fourteen others were injured in the bus accident that took place four days ago.  


From Pokhara, it is easy to get to Baglung. Considering the transport, the way from Pokhara could take between 2 and 5 hours. With a local bus, the road takes about 3-4 hours, depending on the hour and number of stops. The price is 500 Roupies. It is also possible to take a taxi for about 3000 Roupies. It’s easier to find a taxi when exiting Pokhara. It is usually very complicated to find a taxi in Baglung. The highway is called Gupi Shertsan Highway. The distance between the two towns is 72 km. The same road connects other 3 district capitals (Kushma, Beni, Jomson)

Leaving Pokhara, the road goes near to the famous Sarankhot mountain, then continues through Naudhanda, Nayapul (place where the trekking for the Annapurna base camp begins). Kushma, Baglung. We’ll see the river Modi on the way. It eventually meets Kalighandaki near Kushma, and this confluence creates a sacred place for the Hindu.

Tihar deprives Baglung hospital of doctors

The Dhawalagiri Hospital in Baglung district is without doctors as all the doctors there left on the Tihar festival leave.


Other doctors at the hospital also took leave and left for home after the Medical Superintendent at the Hospital Dr. Tarun Paudel left on a long leave.


There are 10 doctors at the hospital. But there is none at present due to the Tihar festival, according to an RSS report.
