KAVRE: The Ministry of Culture, Tourism and Civil Aviation has granted permission to Phulchoki Adventure Pvt. Ltd. to commercially operate paragliding at Kushadevi area in Kavre.

Following this, the Civil Aviation Authority of Nepal (CAAN) has started the technical process, said the CAAN officials.

“We have got permission from the Ministry to operate commercial paragliding. We will operate it after the CAAN issues the paragliding operation directive,” said the company’s president Chhabi Lal Humagain.
