KATHMANDU: Shridhar Khatri has been appointed as Nepali Ambassador to the United States.
President Bidya Devi Bhandari appointed Khatri on Sunday on the recommendation of the government in accordance with Article 282 of the Constitution.
The government had decided to recommend Khatri as ambassador on October 28 last year and the parliamentary hearing committee had approved the nomination on December 7.
However, Khatri’s appointment had been on hold as the agreemo from the US was not received. With the US sending the agreemo to Nepal, Khatri has been appointed the Nepali Ambassador to the US.
