Narrative

Full Description

Project narrative

In 2017, the Chinese Government agreed to reconstruct Durbar High School — also known as Bhanu Secondary School — in Ranipokhari within Kathmandu. It has a total construction area of 4200 square meters, with more than 40 classrooms. The school, founded on 1853, was previously damaged by the 2015 earthquake. The school will be reconstructed with a RMB 55 million million grant from the Chinese Government. Shanghai Construction Engineering Group Co., Ltd. is the contractor responsible for construction. China Aviation Planning and Design Institute prepared the school design. The construction project officially started on August 3, 2018. It was expected to last 20 months. The project was ultimately completed on January 19, 2020. This project was part of post-earthquake 25 China-aided recovery projects. For the umbrella project, see Record ID#43970.
