Kathmandu. According to the Supplementary Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) report of the Upper Trishuli-1 Hydropower Project, the project has been increased to Rs. It is estimated to reach 66.1 billion. The initial cost estimate of the project is Rs. From Rs 36.4 billion, it has now increased by 81.5 percent. <\/p>\n
Although the re-evaluation report has added construction cost along with the physical infrastructure, there are no more affected households.
