KATHMANDU - A bus carrying 43 Indian tourists and crew members plunged into a rain-swollen river in neighbouring Nepal on Friday (Aug 23), killing more than half of those on board, a Nepali armed police spokesperson said.
When Nepal’s new international airport opened last year in one of the country’s biggest cities, it was the type of landmark project expected to elevate the fortunes of one of Asia’s poorest countries while deepening its ties with China, which built and financed the project.
The bus veered off Prithvi Highway and rolled toward a fast-flowing river. Its roof was ripped open before stopping on the rocky bank just shy of the Marsyangdi’s rushing, murky water.
Move comes weeks after Prime Minister Khadga Prasad Sharma Oli was sworn into office following the collapse of the previous government.
KATHMANDU, Nepal (AP) — At least 14 people were killed, 16 other injured and several more believed to be missing after a bus carrying dozens of Indian pilgrims drove off a key highway Friday in Nepal, officials said.
KATHMANDU — Nepal lifted a ban on Chinese-owned TikTok on Aug 22, more than nine months after outlawing the popular video sharing app for disturbing "social harmony and goodwill".
Nepal’s government decided on Thursday to lift the ban it imposed on the video-sharing app TikTok last November for disrupting “social harmony”.
The new prime minister of Nepal, K.P. Sharma Oli, on Thursday overturned a ban on TikTok that his predecessor imposed in November, an apparent sign that the veteran politician intended to strengthen the country’s relations with China, its northern neighbor.
