POKHARA: Stakeholders and the local community have begun joint initiatives to ensure a safer and more tourism-friendly environment in Pokhara’s Lakeside area.

The Pokhara Tourism Council has partnered with multiple agencies and local representatives to enhance safety, security and overall visitor experience in the city’s main tourist hub.

Council Chairperson Taranath Pahari said the campaign is being implemented in coordination with the Ward Police Office, Tourism Police, Metropolitan Police, ward officials and tourism-related organizations.
