The procurement process has proceeded, according to Bhushan Tuladhar, a member of the Joint Transportation Steering Committee. According to him, the tender would be assessed approximately a month and a half after it was opened.
The group comes to an agreement, and electric buses can be deployed within six months of that accord. “It has been delayed by two months owing to Corona,” Tuladhar explained. Following the evaluation of the tender, an agreement will be reached.” The building work would be carried out in phases, according to him, as per the agreement.
To pass the exam, the building business must first drive three buses on Nepalese streets. More buses will be added if the test is successful, according to Tuladhar. According to him, the agreement states that the firm would not only buy the bus but will also repair it for five years, with a delay of a few days because the package must include the procurement of replacement parts for maintenance.
