KATHMANDU: Prime Minister KP Sharma Oli will address the nation at 6 pm today, according to PM's press adviser Pramod Dahal.

Earlier, he was scheduled to address the nation on November 10, but due to lack of preparations, the scheduled programme was postponed.

It has been learned that PM Oli will address the nation over ongoing chaos in Tarai and shortage of essential goods including petroleum products.

The Prime Minister is expected to thank all the Nepali people for their support at such a critical time when essential supplies had been blockaded and to tell the people about his plans to make the country self-dependent.
