Sui siti di informazione turistica ci sono ancora notizie vecchie di almeno 6 mesi (es su http://www.conscalcutta.esteri.it/Consolato_Calcutta/Menu/Il_Consolato/Il_Console/Messaggio/ troviamo:Il Nepal, affascinante Regno Himalayano che ospita molte delle vette piu’ alte del mondo, e’ stato per molti anni una delle mete piu’ ricercate ed avventurose del turismo internazionale. Dal 1996 il progressivo aggravarsi dello stato di guerra civile, causato dalla guerriglia maoista che mira a rovesciare la secolare monarchia nepalese, ha condotto ad un peggioramento delle condizioni di sicurezza nel paese ed ha aperto una crisi politica di difficile soluzione).
Oggi in Nepal invece è giorno di festa nazionale:
dal Kantipur on line:
Interim Legislature ratifies new statute, public holiday today
Kantipur Report
KATHMANDU, Jan 15 - The Interim Legislature on Monday night unanimously ratified the Interim Constitution of Nepal 2063 promulgated by the last sitting of the House of Representatives earlier.
On behalf of Prime Minister Girija Prasad Koirala, Home Minister Krishna Prasad Sitaula tabled the motion to ratify the Interim Constitution before the Interim Legislature. Following the tabling of the motion, NC parliamentarian Bal Bahadur Rai, who was chairing the first session of the Interim Legislature, asked the MPs to vote on the motion. Rai declared that the Interim Constitution had been ratified by the interim parliament as no 'nays' were heard during the voice voting.
The first sitting of the Interim Legislature concluded following the ratification of the Interim Constitution. The Interim Legislature could not name its speaker today. A vote to this effect is likely to take place on Jan 17, Wednesday.
Meanwhile, the government has declared a public holiday on Tuesday to mark the promulgation of the Interim Constitution.
According to Home Ministry, all government offices, schools and public institutions will remain closed today.
Likewise, Nepalese diplomatic missions abroad will also remain closed today to mark the promulgation of the Interim Constitution which replaces the 1990 constitution.
This is the country's sixth constitution.
