KATHMANDU: Amid increasing coronavirus cases, the Immigration Department has warned people against visiting foreign countries unless absolutely necessary.
Issuing a travel advisory on Wednesday, the department said, “Those who are planning to travel from Nepal to countries where there is a risk of infection from the new variant are requested not to travel except in extreme cases.”
