Kathmandu - Vice President Nanda Bahadur Pun has said the New Year 2077 Bikram Sambat (BS) will provide inspiration to all the Nepalis to demonstrate unprecedented national unity in the fight against COVID-19 pandemic. Extending best wishes to all the Nepalis on the occasion of the New Year 2077 BS today, the Vice President believed that the coronavirus pandemic would be contained within the initial few months of the New Year and the nation will again soon march ahead on the journey towards fulfilling the national aspiration, 'Prosperous Nepal, Happy Nepali'.
