KATHMANDU: The bids for installing international-standard floodlights and constructing parapets at Tribhuvan University Cricket Ground in Kirtipur have been approved.

The Federal Secretariat Construction and Management Office under the Ministry of Urban Development approved separate companies’ bids for the projects on Thursday.

Vishan-Ishwari Joint Venture of Lalitpur secured the contract for installing floodlights at a cost of Rs 420 million, while BKOI-KCDC-BG JV, Tangal, won the parapet construction bid for Rs 430 million.

Following Prime Minister KP Sharma Oli’s directive to complete the ground’s upgrade within 300 days after assuming office on July 15, 2024, the government handed over the project to the Ministry of Urban Development due to legal hurdles that had stalled progress under Tribhuvan University’s jurisdiction.

The initiative gained momentum after Nepal secured a four-year recognition in the ICC Men’s World Cup League-2, drawing government attention to the need for better infrastructure at the cricket ground.
