Impending Covid-19 second wave in Nepal shakes businesspersons’ confidence

On Thursday last week, the government issued a notice requesting restauranteurs and other nighttime business operators to close their businesses after 9 pm as the number of active Covid-19 cases is on the rise again.

Following the recent spike in Covid-19 cases in India, Prime Minister KP Sharma Oli, also on Thursday, urged the public to remain vigilant. He also warned of another round of lockdown.
