Kathmandu, January 18

Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Cooperatives and Poverty Alleviation Chitra Bahadur KC today stressed on publicising the tourism sector from people’s level to invite more tourists.

Addressing an interaction organised by Nepal-Canada Friendship and Cultural Association on ‘Mountaineering Tourism: Nepal-Canada’ DPM KC pointed out the need to deliver the message that ‘Nepal is safe after quake’ to welcome more tourists in the country.

He added that no agreement should be made that would affect nationality and national integrity as Nepal had promulgated a new constitution as per the peoples’ aspirations.

DPM KC clarified that his party had not participated in the government merely to enjoy power and to implement federalism. Rather it had joined the government to implement the positive features of the constitution.

On the occasion, former Tourism Minister Yankila Sherpa urged the government to bring out new policies to attract more tourists.
