History of Char Bhanjyang Area Development Project
Over the years the servicemen and ex-service men of the British, Indian and Nepalese Army have contributed significant time, money and effort for the development of the villages within Char Bhanjyang. However a series of natural disasters in the 1990s coupled with the political unrest that began in early 2000s disrupted the normal life of these beautiful villages. The life in the village has been volatile. As a result most of the villagers migrated into the urban areas in search of a better life, greater opportunities and most importantly personal security. Those villagers who could not afford and did not wish to move remained in the village. In majority of cases they were poor and vulnerable.
Through the passage of time the political situation has much improved and it is reflected in the increased stability in the villages. Based on this fact the concept of Char Bhanjyang Area Development project was initiated by Hon Lt Chandra Bahadur Gurung. The main aim of the project is to assist those people who live in Char Bhanjyang in the field of Education, Health, Tourism, Agriculture, Nature conservation and Preservation of Culture
