JUMLA: The master plan to develop Sinja valley as a religious, historic and tourist area is put on hold as no concrete efforts are made in this regards, complained local people. Sinja is the valley where the Nepali language originated and is listed on the UNESCO World Heritage site.

The 10-year master plan brought a decade ago by the Jumla Social Development Centrer remains neglected, according to Bhakta Bahadur Bogati, chairperson of the center.

The plan includes construction of four-lane road, embankments, a museum, a hospital, a center to treat snakebite patients and a college offering master’s degree program and conversation of the dilapidated temples.

The then District Development Committee had endorsed the plan. However, the respective ministry and sectors are yet to give the nod, said Bogati.

In lack of proper management, many religious sites, heritage, temples and structures have been in a dilapidated condition. Objects of cultural and historical importance, Pandav Cave, Birat Palace and Kanakasundari Temple are in the state of disrepair.

Likewise, Khas language and Sinja civilization is on the verge of disappear.
