Kathmandu, 30 July (HS):- Nepal authorities initiated

stern action against the misuse of land which was given for construction of a

hospital, but used for Christian religious activities. Following complaints

from Dhangadi residents in Kailali district, the authorities demolished

the hall. At the same time the registration of the organisation which had

acquired the land on lease, was cancelled.

Dhangadi Municipal Council Mayor Gopal Hamal said the land was given to a Korean organisation ‘Let Me In’ to start a Skin

Hospital. The organisation runs Skin Hospitals elsewhere in Nepal. The

organisation, however, started religious programmes in the premises, without permission.

‘Let Me In’ was being conducted the parent Church organisation Nepal Life World

Mission’, also a Korean organisation. Registration of the parent organisation

was also cancelled.

Mayor Hamal also said that religious seminars on

Christianity and conversions of local people were being carried out in the

premises. The building was demolished after a detailed enquiry.
