SINDHULI: Chairman of Nepal Communist Party (NCP), Pushpa Kamal Dahal has claimed that government would be successful to ensure economic prosperity with tourism development.
Chairman Dahal said it while launching Visit Nepal Year 2020 amidst a programme here on Wednesday. Nepal has planned to bring in 2 million tourists in 2020, he said, adding that investment would be augmented in the tourism potential of Nepal’s religious, historic and natural heritages.
Nepal is famous as a place of wisdom and holiness as per the mythology. “Nepal’s Pashupati Temple and historic Sindhuligadhi are world famous,” he reminded. According to the former prime minister, Nepal has adequate facility to accommodate 2.5 million tourists. Even the remote places as Rolpa, Rukum have tourism potential. The guerilla trail was being developed as tourism destination.
The Visit Nepal Year 2020 would be effective mechanism to realize the national goal of ‘prosperous Nepal: happy Nepali.’ The Visit Nepal Year would not only help bring in foreign tourists but also promote Nepal in the global arena, the Chairman hoped. On a different note, Chairman Dahal said government was serious on addressing the border encroachment issues. “We’re ready to make any sort of sacrifice for the protection of nation’s territorial integrity,” he stressed.
The Chairman further said, “We don’t want an inch of others’ land nor do we concede to.” Diplomatic channels were mobilized to solve Nepal-India border dispute. Problems subsisting for long will be solved, he argued.
