[edit]

Synopsis

Two village development committees named as Dodhara and Chandani of Kanchanpur District are seen entirely apart even thourgh they are Nepalese Territory. In order to link these two VDCs with the national mainstream socially, culturally and economically it was necesary to construct a bridge over the Mahakali River, linking these VDCs with the rest part of the country. With the view of national integration and streamlining of the people residing over these two VDCs into the national mainstream,Government of Nepal initiated the construction of Dodhara-Chandani Mulitspan Pedestrian Bridge from the Fiscal Year 057/58.
