The construction of Huaxin Cement Narayani’s plant at Dhading district, Nepal, has now resumed after a five-month stoppage due to floods. Incessant rains had damaged the construction site in mid-June this year.

"As soon as the festivals were over, 400 Chinese workers including technicians and 300 Nepali workers started working," said Pitta Bahadur Dallakoti, chairperson of Benighat Rorang Rural Municipality. "Management of the factory's physical structure, office buildings, and river is being done in the first phase."

The cement works represents an investment of NPR17bn (US$147.35m), with the company having aimed to start production from June 2020. The factory is expected to produce 60,000 sacks of cement daily.
