Dang’s Tulsipur city is growing significantly with people searching for opportunities and better facilities, but at a risk of unorganised urbanisation. Local representatives have come to the conclusion that quality services cannot be provided to city dwellers without systematic data and plans made based on them.

Anita Kusari, a previous resident of Banphikot rural municipality-8 in Rukum, has been living in Tulsipur of Dang for three years now. Her husband is employed in the USA. Her two sons, nephew, and sister-in-law live in a rented house in Tulsipur-6. She migrated to Dang for better education opportunities for her children and enrolled the four in a nearby boarding school. However, she feels the opportunities and facilities in Tulsipur have not met her expectations.
