Kathmandu, April 22
Prime Minister KP Sharma Oli says the government will not open the border points with India anytime soon though the lockdown restrictions can be relaxed partially.
In his meeting with lawmakers of the ruling Nepal Communist Party representing the Sudurpaschim province in his official residence in Baluwatar on Wednesday, the prime minister said the border would not open till the impact of coronavirus outbreak would not come down. He says the model of lockdown, however, would change soon.
Another chairman of the party, Pushpa Kamal Dahal, was also present in the meeting, but he did not speak anything significantly.
The NCP parliamentary party’s deputy leader Subas Chandra Nembang and chief whip Dev Gurung were also present on the occasion.
The party leaders are planning to meet all federal lawmakers of the party this week.
