Chair Adhikari has been providing such amount of allowance monthly to senior citizens, the disabled and helpless people of refugee camps since long. The organisation has been running this programme continuously since long at the permission of the government with the objective of helping such people who have been living a difficult life in refugee camps.
On the occasion, Chair Adhikari urged the government to think seriously about repatriation of Nepali language speaking people, evicted from Bhutan and currently living in the refugee camps, to their country, their resettlement to third country or providing them with opportunity to live as a Nepali citizen.
