Nepal is home to a wide range of natural resources which often become a source of dispute among different stakeholders. The paper explores the conflict associated to Natural resources which covers classes of interest group, disagreements, public protests, physical assaults, and the filing of cases in courts. It has been prepared by collecting data from primary and secondary sources when unstructured observation, focus group discussion and interview with respondent were conducted for primary data and books, journals were used for secondary data. The Balakhu village was selected purposively to study of condition, use pattern of natural resource in the village.
