Easing lockdown outside hot-spots

Easing lockdown outside hot-spots

I am bit nervous over easing lockdown in the areas outside hot-spots as reported in today's (April 24/20) "The Kathmandu Post". Yes, the three weeks lockdown throughout the nation has created ups and downs in our lives. However, if the government is thinking to ease lockdown, it should think twice before making such decision. Are we in position to identify the hot-spots around the nation? Has the government been able to identify such areas so far? What will happen if the yet to be identified infected person(s) from hot-spots area move to other non hot-spots areas after easing lockdown? There could be other several means of transmission of deadly virus from hot-spots to non hot-spots. Hope, the high level commission will seriously look into these issues and concerns before easing lockdown.

2083/84 budget at a glance The Balen led government , which is almost two-thirds majority government secured in the March 2026 elections , has announced its annual budget 2,124.34 billion on May 29, 2026, as the largest budget in Nepal's history, representing a 25.2 present increase over the revised estimates of the current fiscal year 2082/83.

Causes of Self-Immolation: The underlying motivations for self-immolation vary significantly across different regions, cultures, and socioeconomic demographics. · Political and Ideological Protest: In Western nations and certain East Asian histories, self-immolation is highly associated with political statement.
