HIMALAYA: Rolpa cement soon in market

TULSIPUR: Rolpa district, which is regarded as one of the remotest areas of the nation, is now becoming self-reliant in cement production.

The first and the only cement industry of the district, the Rolpa Cement Pvt. Ltd. is to bring out its product soon, making the district self-reliant in cement. 

Company Manager Dinesh Dangi said the industry established three-year-ago plans to produce cement soon after Tihar festival. 

The industry is facing trouble as the government did not provide electricity it pledged and has been making extra expenditures for diesel generator, said Dangi. The industry established in Budhaguan-3 has been producing 500 tons of clinker daily. 

The industry established at a cost of Rs. 1.1 billion has a capacity of producing 200 tonnes of cement daily. It has given employment to 100 people and 150 will get jobs after its operation. 

The industrial site is 38 kms from Tulsipur of Dang and 17 kms from Kapurkot of Salyan district.
