The most reliable scope of investment in Nepal is in Hydro Power. The second richest country in water resources has a lot more to do in hydro power. There are so many evergreen rivers as well as streams with enough current to produce electricity flowing throughout the year. The water flowing through these rivers is just a waste till date. The big companies of the world have been eyeing upon the investment in hydro power in Nepal. Only the political scenario has been the disturbing factor. If only all those flowing river water is utilized Nepal would be one of the richest countries in the world just by selling electricity. There are very less hydro power projects till now and this is disappointing. Investment in Hydro Power in Nepal should be made open to every one so as to expand its scope. On contrary to the water resource of Nepal, there are over 75% of areas where people still depend on lamps. Using kerosene oil to light those lamps is more expensive than electricity. The lack of oil mines in Nepal is the reason for the expense. The only encouraging factor in investment in hydro power in Nepal is the expatriates. They are willing to invest and hopefully the government will make suitable environment for them in the near future.
