Dhulikhel Municipality has submitted a report of the four completed goals of the Millennium Sustainable Development Goals to the United Nations. Last April, the city released a report that it has achieved four goals out of 17 sustainable development goals: education, health, poverty alleviation and safe drinking water. Mayor Ashok Byanju handed over the 2022 report under Sustainable Development Goals to Curt Garigan, head of the UN’s Sustainable Urban Development Department, at the office in Thailand on Monday. "The report of 2022 under the Sustainable Development Goals was submitted to the association, it should be considered a matter of pride," he said. He addressed the meeting of the high-level political platform on sustainable development attended by representatives of 163 countries at the association's office in New York in the first week of July and informed about the four goals achieved by Dhulikhel among the sustainable development goals.

In the published report, it is claimed that Dhulikhel is the first city in South Asia to publish a 'voluntary review report' indicating that four indicators of sustainable development goals have been met. After the election of local levels, the city's poverty level has decreased from 14 to 4 percent, the city has provided drinking water (one house-one tap) to 84 percent of the local residents' homes. For quality education, the city has provided free education for local residents studying up to graduation level, as well as other local levels of Kavrepalanchok and other districts. 

The city was recently announced as the fifth among 15 cities in the world and the first in Asia to achieve zero carbon emissions. Dhulikhel had previously implemented the 'Fossil Fuel Non-Proliferation Treaty' campaign for the first time in South Asia. Under the agreement, Dhulikhel has been giving first priority to sustainable development and healthy and clean environmental work with the aim of developing its city area as a tourist city.
