Mongar Dzongkhag Administration awarded the contract for the installation of fire alarm and smoke detection systems to Ugyen Trading House, a Thimphu-based firm. A total of 20 units were successfully installed at Mongar Dratshang, with the works completed on 8th May, 2026, over approximately three weeks. The newly installed system is expected to significantly enhance fire safety by enabling early detection and timely response in the event of a fire disaster. To ensure effective operation, hands-on training was provided to Royal Bhutan Police (RBP) personnel, who will be responsible for round-the-clock monitoring.
A Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) was formally signed among Mongar Dzongkhag Administration, Rabdey Dratshang, and the RBP, outlining the agreed Standard Operating Procedures (SOP).
The project was funded by the Royal Government of Bhutan (RGoB) at a total cost of Nu. 0.84 million.
