Project narrative

In May 2017, the Chinese Government announced it would provide grant funding for the reconstruction of two middle schools that were damaged during the 2015 earthquake in Nepal: Bhairav Secondary School (also known as Bhairab Secondary School) in Rainas Municipality, Lamjung district, Province 4 and the Shree Ratna Rajya Secondary School in Bramhachi VDC-9 within Sindhupalchok District. Tibet Jinlong Construction Engineering Co. LTD. served as the general contractor for the project. China Tibet International Economic Service Center served as the project management agency. Guangzhou Wanan Construction Supervision Co.. LTD. served as the project supervision company. Architectural Reconnaissance and Design Institute of Tibet served as the project design company. Construction began on May 22, 2017 and ended on December 10, 2019. These two schools can accommodate 1,046 full-time students and 130 faculty members. Shree Ratna Rajya Secondary School alone can accommodate 630 students. Bhairav Secondary School consists of a four-story building with 68 rooms including classrooms, science and computer labs, library, art and music rooms, canteen and dorms for students and teachers. It can accommodate 416 students. Solar lights have been installed at different parts of the school area while a basketball court and parking lot have also been constructed. The Chinese Government provided a grant worth approximately 810 million Nepali rupees for the reconstruction of the Shree Ratna Rajya Secondary School and a grant worth approximately 830 million Nepali rupees for the reconstruction of the Bhairav Secondary School. Therefore, we have set grant commitment estimate to 1.64 billion Nepali rupees. For a third Chinese Government grant-financed school reconstruction project, see Record ID#53719. The Bhairab Secondary School is located in a village in Rainas Municipality, Lamjung district, Province 4.
