In a recent development, the Nepali government has announced a nationwide lockdown to curb the spread of COVID-19. The lockdown will be effective starting tomorrow and will last for two weeks. This decision comes as the number of COVID-19 cases in the country continues to rise steadily.
During the lockdown, all non-essential businesses and services will remain closed. People are advised to stay at home and only go out for essential needs such as groceries and medical emergencies. The government has assured the public that essential services such as supermarkets, pharmacies, and hospitals will remain open to cater to the needs of the citizens.
Ramesh Khatri, a representative of Kansai Nepal News, expressed his concerns about the impact of the lockdown on the economy.

Khatri emphasized the importance of the government providing support to those affected by the lockdown to mitigate the economic impact.
