KATHMANDU: Prime Minister KP Sharma Oli has inaugurated newly constructed Dharahara on Saturday.
Prime Minister Oli inaugurated Dharahara by releasing an inscription amidst a program organized at Sundhara where Dharahara is located this morning.
Oli went up to the veranda on the 20th floor of Darahara through the lift and viewed the scene of the Kathmandu Valley after showing flower petals as part of the inauguration of Dharahara which is known as Bhimsen Tower.
