Best of 2021: Change begins at weddings

As the new season of auspicious dates for weddings rolls around every year, as per the Hindu calendar system, the demand for gold also escalates in the Nepali market. As per news reports, jewellers have failed to meet the demand, forcing many of the customers to return empty-handed, citing insufficient supplies.

Would this be the case if Hindu weddings were done without using any jewellery ? Of course, not! Generally, a large sum of money is spent on jewellery during weddings in Nepal since gold ornaments are considered a must for every Nepali Hindu wedding.
