Current news and informations on Nepal


Informations on current events in Nepal are best available through the website of NepalNews.Com.  On the access page, headlines are updated several times a day. Besides, this is the entrance website to numerous dailies, weeklies and monthlies from Nepal. Another entrance site to newspapers and journals is offered by Nepal Research.

Following some remarks on the newspapers offered through these websites (especially for beginners): Please inform yourself about the current events through the Kathmandu Post, Nepals leading English language daily or through the government owned Rising Nepal.

Among the other Nepali newspapers offered in the internet, Spotlight (an illustrated and analytical weekly) and The Telegraph (a good weekly with foreign orientation) must be mentioned. Kantipur is the best daily in Nepali language (required font can be downloaded).

You should also have a look at The People's Review, a weekly with critical and analytical articles. The same is true for The Nepali Times (sometimes in high standard English). Those interested in economic issues should read the monthly Business Age.

Who is looking for information on special topics should have a look at the numerous subsites of Nepal Research where you find a regularly updated evaluation of Nepals' English language press (partly also of Nepali papers). Newslook Magazine offers a similar Nepal related evaluation of the world press.

Those interested in radio information, may listen to the English news of Radio Nepal (also available in Nepali language). The required RealPlayer can be downloaded free of charge.
