KATHMANDU: Transport entrepreneurs have warned that they will not start booking bus tickets for Dashain from Sunday (September 23) as announced earlier if the government does not roll back its decision to hike fuel prices.

The Federation of Nepalese National Transport Entrepreneurs have expressed dissatisfaction at the continuous rise in fuel prices without adjusting public transportation fare, ‘adding financial burden on transport entrepreneurs’.

Nepal Oil Corporation had raised price of petrol by two rupees per litre and that of diesel and kerosene by three rupees per litre each with effect from Tuesday.
