			'sub_title' => '',
			'summary' => 'April 13: CG Impex (P) Ltd, the sole distributor for LG products in Nepal, has launched new refrigerators ranging from single door units to side-by-side refrigerators with InstaView Door-In-Door features. ',
			'content' => '<p>April 13: CG Impex (P) Ltd, the sole distributor for LG products in Nepal, has launched new refrigerators ranging from single door units to side-by-side refrigerators with InstaView Door-In-Door features.&nbsp; Issuing a press statement, the company said that the new line-ups of the double-door units are equipped with the features below.&nbsp;</p>

<p><strong>Linear Cooling</strong><br />
With linear cooling, the temperature gap between the different portions of the refrigerator is significantly reduced; thus, uniform cooling across the refrigerator can be achieved in LG refrigerators with linear cooling. Not just this, linear cooling helps retain freshness in food for up to 14 days, the company claimed.</p>

<p><strong>Inverter Linear Compressor</strong></p>

<p>Inverter linear compressor functions within a temperature range of &plusmn;0.5&deg;C, that&rsquo;s almost half the temperature variation as compared to the conventional compressor. Not just this, it saves 32 percent energy, reduces noise by 25 percent, comes with a 10-year warranty and is certified for a lifespan of 20 years.</p>

<h3>Door Cooling+&trade;</h3>

<p>LG Door Cooling+&trade; makes inside temperature more even and cools the refrigerator 35 percent faster than the conventional cooling system. This reduces the temperature gap between the inner part and the door side of the compartment; thus letting the foods remain fresh for long.</p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>

<p><strong>Smart Diagnosis&trade;</strong></p>

<p>With this feature, servicing an LG refrigerator is much easier and smarter. Customers just need to activate Smart Diagnosis&trade; and let the mobile application guide them through.</p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>

<p><strong>Auto Smart Connect&trade;</strong></p>

<p>Auto Smart Connect&trade; is a technology that helps connect the refrigerator to home inverter. Once the refrigerator is connected to the home inverter, every time the power goes off, it automatically takes inverter power to run the refrigerator without any manual supervision. LG refrigerators with this feature, consume power less than 2 CFL~ bulbs during power cut.</p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>

<p><strong>100V~290V LVS, Stabilizer-Free Operation</strong><br />
LG refrigerators perform optimally even in low voltage conditions. They operate within the range of 100~290V and can withstand voltage fluctuations making it virtually stabilizer free.</p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>

<p><strong>Ever Fresh Zone</strong></p>

<p>LG refrigerators are equipped with a special large fresh zone with Moist Balance Crisper and Humidity Controller that keeps vegetables fresh for longer.</p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>

<p><strong>2-Liter Bottle Storage</strong><br />
There is ample space to keep bigger 2-liter bottles in the refrigerator door.</p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>

<p><strong>Double Twist Ice Tray</strong></p>

<p>This feature in the LG refrigerators allows you to get easy access for ice when you need some extra.</p>

He found both fame and fortune with his supermarket and departmental store chain Bhat-Bhateni. In his early twenties, Gurung, a master&rsquo;s degree holder in economics, had a banking job at Nepal Bank Ltd and was stationed at Nepalgunj. In 1984, Gurung started Bhatbhateni Cold Store, a small retail grocery shop with an initial investment of NRs 35,000 which laid the foundation of his future as one of the successful businessmen in Nepal.&nbsp;</p>

<p style="text-align:justify">Gurung who was juggling the obligations of his banking job in Nepalgunj and his store in Kathmandu until 1992 finally gave up his banking career to fully focus on his business which he believed had immense possibilities. By that time, he already had expanded his cold store to the second floor of the building where he operated his cold store on the first floor. His hard work paid off and Bhat-Bhateni became a leading supermarket and departmental store of Nepal.&nbsp;</p>

<p style="text-align:justify">In the last decade, Bhat-Bhateni has been in a massive expansion spree and has opened 13 stores beginning from one at Maharajgunj of Kathmandu in 2008. These stores are located at various convenient parts of Kathmandu, Bhaktapur, Lalitpur, Pokhara, Chitwan, Dharan and Butwal. It is estimated that there is a daily combined footfall of more than 50,000 people in these stores making Bhat-Bhateni a leading retail chain of Nepal with an estimated daily annual turnover of USD 350,000. Min Bahadur Gurung has further diversified his business interest with investments in the 42 MW Mistri Khola Hydropower Project developed by Robust Energy and Chandragiri Hills Pvt Ltd.</p>

As the business thrived, Chachan Group transformed itself into a business group with several manufacturing units producing the same commodities that it once simply traded.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Today, Chachan Group imports spices, fertilisers, sugar, cement and coal and agro-equipments through its four different trading firms. The group started trading in coal in 2011.&nbsp; The group is also a manufacturer of different popular brands of cement such as Trishakti and Jay Bageshwari. The group produces cement through Narayani Cement Udhyog and Jai Bageshwari Cement. The latter was established three years ago.&nbsp;</p>

<p>The group is strongly focused on its cement industries and plans to establish several clinker plants. It has already bought limestone mines in parts of Udaypur, Palpa and Arghakhanchi district.</p>

			'content' => '<p style="text-align:justify"><img alt="" src="/userfiles/images/Clipboard49%2813%29.jpg" style="float:right; height:517px; margin:5px; width:100px" />It was in the late 19th century when Bhuramull Chaudhary opened a shop on Juddha Sadak (now New Road), on an initial yearly rental fee of Rs 200, to deal in textiles imported from various parts of India. Bhuramull Chaudhary was among the few privileged businessmen permitted to enter the palace of Rana Prime Minister Juddha Shumsher. He, along with his son Lunkarandas Chaudhary, carried items from his shop to the palace with the help of porters and arranged an open shop in the courtyard for the royals and the courtiers. This business operation used to function under the informal name of Bhuramull Lunkaran Das as the registration of private business firms was not required back then.&nbsp;</p>

<p style="text-align:justify">Young Lunkarandas took over the business after the demise of his father and went ahead with the business of exporting jute from Biratnagar to overseas markets including United States and Europe. His firms Bhuramull Lunkaran and Arun Impex also used to import fabrics from Japan and Korea.&nbsp;</p>

<p style="text-align:justify">After the success in textiles and jute trading, Lunkarandas established a number of pioneering industries and businesses in the 1960s and early 70s in the country. To name a few, Flooring and Furnishing Center, Modern Hosiery Industry Pvt Ltd, Nepal Spinning and Weaving Pvt Ltd, Arun Emporium, Arun Impex and Ratna Stainless Steel Pvt Ltd are companies started by him that are consideredto be the first companies in Nepal to start the modern businesses of flooring and furnishing, hosiery, synthetic yarn production, departmental stores and manufacturing of stainless steel utensils using Japanese technology, among others. Established in 1957, United Builders was another major business venture of Lunkarandas which constructed the Hotel Soaltee Crowne Plaza and Kathmandu-Trishuli road.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p>

<p style="text-align:justify">Binod Chaudhary, the elder among the three sons of Lunkarandas, has been taking the conglomerate to new international heights by establishing a vast business empire throughout the globe. With his efforts, the group in 1985 started production of Wai Wai instant noodles which used to be produced by Thai Preserved Food Factory Company. CG made every effort to turn the precooked brown noodles into an international Nepali brand. Today, Wai Wai has not only become the biggest brand in Nepal but is also the fastest growing Nepali noodles brand in India where its manufacturer CGFI claims to have a 27 percent market share. In a full swing to go global, Chaudhary Group over the last two years has forayed into the European and US noodles market with its flagship brand Wai Wai. The three Chaudhary brothers own and manage separate businesses but use the same CG banner.</p>

<p style="text-align:justify">After achieving big successes in Nepal, the group made its first international foray with Cinnovation Group in Singapore in 1990. Cinnovation is regarded as the first and only Nepali multinational company to step into the global business arena. It is a multidimensional business approach of the Chaudhary Group which has a wide range of interests in areas including hotels and resorts, wildlife and in-bound tourism, FMCG (food and beverage), real estate,cement and financial services. With 48 companies, Cinnovation has over 4,300 employees across the world.</p>

<p style="text-align:justify">Chaudhary Group now operates in all five continents of the world. It has 136 companies under its umbrella with a diversified business portfolio in sectors including FMCG, consumer electronics, financial services, hospitality and travel, automobile, education, health, energy, real estate and housing, biotech and agribusiness, among many others.</p>

<p style="text-align:justify">The Dugar family carries a 137 year old legacy in business. It all started when Chandan Mal Dugar started trading in fabrics at a &lsquo;haat bazaar&rsquo; (a weekly market organised locally) in Biratnagar. His son Lunkaran Dugar not only continued the trading business but also widened the business by stepping into agro products. The Dugar group charted new heights after the four sons of Lun Karan took over the business. Initially, the group had a presence in textiles and agro products, but later expanded to jute exports, steel, rice mills, among others.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Late Tola Ram Dugar and his younger brother Moti Lal Dugar have played major roles in the diversification of the business. After moving from Dharan to Biratnagar, Tola Ram and Moti Lal diversified the business into jute processing and made Biratnagar the base for the family business. According to Vivek Dugar, his father Moti Lal started the practice of making cash payments to farmers while buying raw food grains from them some six decades ago, which made a huge difference in the agriculture sector.</p>

<p style="text-align:justify">The group started a strawboard paper industry in 1966, ventured into rice and oil mills in Dhangadi and Birgunj, established a stainless steel utensil industry and in 1972 entered the automobile business. These initiatives are considered to be some of the key milestones in the Dugar Family&rsquo; business history.&nbsp;</p>

<p style="text-align:justify">At present, the legacy of Dugar&rsquo;s business is carried out by four groups, each helmed by the four brothers belonging to the third generation of the family. In 1962, the group separated into two groups - TM Dugar and HC Dugar. In 1991, the TM Dugar group separated into TM Dugar Group and KL Dugar Group. In 2015, Motilal Dugar separated from TM Dugar group and formed MV Dugar Group.&nbsp;</p>

<p style="text-align:justify">Among them, KL Dugar is a leading business house in the food industry with brands such as Dhara Oil and Gyan Rice. Similarly, Moti Lal has taken the automobile business to new heights after restructuring the family run business. In addition, the MV Group led by Moti Lal has plans for massive investment in the hydropower sector. Currently, three hydropower projects, totaling 157 MW and amounting to Rs 21 billion, are under construction as part of its plan to engage in projects totaling 500 MW.</p>

<p>&quot;We won&#39;t become developed after becoming rich but we will become rich after becoming developed,&quot; said Oli.</p>

<p>The target may seem ambitious but we are dedicated for the development, Oli said.</p>

<p>He requested the members of FNCCI for their support in the country&#39;s development.</p>

<p>&quot;Previously we were burdened with numerous factors mainly political instability which affected the country&#39;s development. But, at present, the scenario has already change and we have drafted our constitution and decentralized the authority to the local levels with durable government policies. Hence each and every individual must cooperate for development,&quot; Oli added.</p>

<p>PM Oli also informed that the latest agreements made with India focused on the development of the nation. He mentioned about his plans of utilizing the rivers for connecting with seas to conduct trade.</p>

<p>&quot;Railway expansion is almost sure but increasing import is our major concern,&quot; he said. Oli mentioned that FNCCI must focus on productivity and utilize the railways for exporting national products.</p>

<p>He also mentioned that national sovereignty, independence, democracy, political stability and diversity are the five pillars for the development for the country.</p>

			'content' => '<p>April 12: International conference on &quot;Identifying Challenges, Assessing Progress, Moving Forward: Addressing Impunity and Realizing Human Rights in South Asia&quot; hosted by the National Human Rights Commission of Nepal (NHRC) in Kathmandu concluded on Wednesday, April 11. The seven National Human Rights Institutions (NHRIs) representing South Asia reached to an understanding over a number of key issues, which is also included in the Kathmandu Declaration, reads a press statement issued by NHRC.</p>

<p>The conference witnessed the participation of the representatives of NHRIs in the South Asian region including Afghanistan, Bangladesh, Bhutan, India, the Maldives, Pakistan, Sri Lanka and Nepal. The human rights institutions of Malaysia, Mongolia, Myanmar, the Philippines and Jordan, attended along with the leading human rights activists and civil society members from the region.</p>

<p>During the conference, discussions were held on the issues of national security and human rights, migration and livelihood, rights of women and indigenous and marginalized communities.</p>

<p>In the session on Transitional Justice (TJ), a consensus emerged to entirely prioritize the participation of victims&rsquo; groups in the process from the start and the need to see that all four pillars of TJ &nbsp;- truth, reparations, justice and reforms - ensure that crises are not repeated. Also, the conference stood in firm support for the vetting of all security forces seeking promotions or intending to take part in UN peacekeeping missions and to exclude those under investigation.</p>

<p>The declaration issued after the end of the conference called on all South Asian states to review national security and counter-terrorism laws relating to the issue of impunity to ensure that they meet international norms and standards.&nbsp;</p>

<p>While the declaration recognizes the inalienable right of the states to call a state of emergency when national security is genuinely in peril, it also reiterates categorically that under no circumstances the use of torture or attacks on the right to life and the protection of civilians can be justified. All the signatories to the Kathmandu Declaration committed to remain vigilant to any attempts to improperly use national security as a justification for illegitimate restrictions of rights that in no circumstances can be suspended.</p>

<p>The conference discussed at length the issue of migration and stressed the importance of the right of freedom of movement, including in search of employment. &nbsp;While recognizing the economic benefits to migrant labor and the contribution of remittances to the economies of the region, it is increasingly clear that those who migrate for employment, particularly women, are frequently subject to serious abuses including under the Kafala system. The signatories therefore called on governments to bring about necessary legal and administrative measures to protect migrants&#39; rights, in both countries of origin and countries of destination.</p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>

<p>Chairperson of the National Human Rights Commission of Nepal, Anup Raj Sharma, said, &ldquo;Several themes recurred during the three consecutive days such as the need to reach out to civil society and improve the understanding of our work and how it can improve peoples&rsquo; lives practically.&rdquo;</p>

<p>The conference expressed deep concern at continuing gross violation of Human Rights in the region, such as the expulsion of Rohingha from Myanmar.</p>

<p>Expressing her satisfaction at the successful outcome of the meeting, Member of the National Human Rights Commission of Nepal Mohna Ansari said, &ldquo;Perhaps the most important outcome of the conference is the common understanding that only justice and respect for human rights can strengthen the political stability, which is required for prosperity. We also want to promote measures to defend the judiciary and police from political influence to maintain their independence.&rdquo;</p>

<p>The conference was inaugurated on April 9 by President Bidya Devi Bhandari, who stressed on the responsibility of the Nepal government is to endow justice to victims of human rights violations.</p>

<p>Udeep Baral, one of this week&#39;s Russia trip winner stated, &quot;It was completely unexpected.

I would like to thank Coca-Cola Nepal for making this dream trip come true.&quot;</p>

<p>Another winner of Russia trip, Anamika Khatri shared, &quot;When they contacted me to inform me that I was going to Russia to watch live World Cup 2018, I didn&#39;t believe them at first. I thought it was just a prank and I was like, me going to Russia? Impossible, and then after asking them 3 or 4 times, they convinced me that it was real and not a bluff. It is going to be my first trip out of the country and one of the moments I will never forget.&quot;</p>

<p>As of now, 19 winners for the paid Russia trip are yet to be announced. To participate in the campaign, one needs to look behind the label and type Coke &lt;Unique Code&gt; and send SMS to 37722. Winners are selected through lucky draw. The campaign will end on April 15.</p>

			'summary' => 'April 13: CG Impex (P) Ltd, the sole distributor for LG products in Nepal, has launched new refrigerators ranging from single door units to side-by-side refrigerators with InstaView Door-In-Door features. ',
			'content' => '<p>April 13: CG Impex (P) Ltd, the sole distributor for LG products in Nepal, has launched new refrigerators ranging from single door units to side-by-side refrigerators with InstaView Door-In-Door features.&nbsp; Issuing a press statement, the company said that the new line-ups of the double-door units are equipped with the features below.&nbsp;</p>

<p><strong>Linear Cooling</strong><br />
With linear cooling, the temperature gap between the different portions of the refrigerator is significantly reduced; thus, uniform cooling across the refrigerator can be achieved in LG refrigerators with linear cooling. Not just this, linear cooling helps retain freshness in food for up to 14 days, the company claimed.</p>

<p><strong>Inverter Linear Compressor</strong></p>

<p>Inverter linear compressor functions within a temperature range of &plusmn;0.5&deg;C, that&rsquo;s almost half the temperature variation as compared to the conventional compressor. Not just this, it saves 32 percent energy, reduces noise by 25 percent, comes with a 10-year warranty and is certified for a lifespan of 20 years.</p>

<h3>Door Cooling+&trade;</h3>

<p>LG Door Cooling+&trade; makes inside temperature more even and cools the refrigerator 35 percent faster than the conventional cooling system. This reduces the temperature gap between the inner part and the door side of the compartment; thus letting the foods remain fresh for long.</p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>

<p><strong>Smart Diagnosis&trade;</strong></p>

<p>With this feature, servicing an LG refrigerator is much easier and smarter. Customers just need to activate Smart Diagnosis&trade; and let the mobile application guide them through.</p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>

<p><strong>Auto Smart Connect&trade;</strong></p>

<p>Auto Smart Connect&trade; is a technology that helps connect the refrigerator to home inverter. Once the refrigerator is connected to the home inverter, every time the power goes off, it automatically takes inverter power to run the refrigerator without any manual supervision. LG refrigerators with this feature, consume power less than 2 CFL~ bulbs during power cut.</p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>

<p><strong>100V~290V LVS, Stabilizer-Free Operation</strong><br />
LG refrigerators perform optimally even in low voltage conditions. They operate within the range of 100~290V and can withstand voltage fluctuations making it virtually stabilizer free.</p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>

<p><strong>Ever Fresh Zone</strong></p>

<p>LG refrigerators are equipped with a special large fresh zone with Moist Balance Crisper and Humidity Controller that keeps vegetables fresh for longer.</p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>

<p><strong>2-Liter Bottle Storage</strong><br />
There is ample space to keep bigger 2-liter bottles in the refrigerator door.</p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>

<p><strong>Double Twist Ice Tray</strong></p>

<p>This feature in the LG refrigerators allows you to get easy access for ice when you need some extra.</p>

			'content' => '<p style="text-align:justify"><img alt="" src="/userfiles/images/Clipboard42%286%29.jpg" style="float:right; height:201px; margin:5px; width:100px" />Min Bahadur Gurung, the chairman and managing director of Bhat-Bhateni Group, is known for turning a small grocery store into a retail giant. He found both fame and fortune with his supermarket and departmental store chain Bhat-Bhateni. In his early twenties, Gurung, a master&rsquo;s degree holder in economics, had a banking job at Nepal Bank Ltd and was stationed at Nepalgunj. In 1984, Gurung started Bhatbhateni Cold Store, a small retail grocery shop with an initial investment of NRs 35,000 which laid the foundation of his future as one of the successful businessmen in Nepal.&nbsp;</p>

<p style="text-align:justify">Gurung who was juggling the obligations of his banking job in Nepalgunj and his store in Kathmandu until 1992 finally gave up his banking career to fully focus on his business which he believed had immense possibilities. By that time, he already had expanded his cold store to the second floor of the building where he operated his cold store on the first floor. His hard work paid off and Bhat-Bhateni became a leading supermarket and departmental store of Nepal.&nbsp;</p>

<p style="text-align:justify">In the last decade, Bhat-Bhateni has been in a massive expansion spree and has opened 13 stores beginning from one at Maharajgunj of Kathmandu in 2008. These stores are located at various convenient parts of Kathmandu, Bhaktapur, Lalitpur, Pokhara, Chitwan, Dharan and Butwal. It is estimated that there is a daily combined footfall of more than 50,000 people in these stores making Bhat-Bhateni a leading retail chain of Nepal with an estimated daily annual turnover of USD 350,000. Min Bahadur Gurung has further diversified his business interest with investments in the 42 MW Mistri Khola Hydropower Project developed by Robust Energy and Chandragiri Hills Pvt Ltd.</p>

As the business thrived, Chachan Group transformed itself into a business group with several manufacturing units producing the same commodities that it once simply traded.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Today, Chachan Group imports spices, fertilisers, sugar, cement and coal and agro-equipments through its four different trading firms. The group started trading in coal in 2011.&nbsp; The group is also a manufacturer of different popular brands of cement such as Trishakti and Jay Bageshwari. The group produces cement through Narayani Cement Udhyog and Jai Bageshwari Cement. The latter was established three years ago.&nbsp;</p>

<p>The group is strongly focused on its cement industries and plans to establish several clinker plants. It has already bought limestone mines in parts of Udaypur, Palpa and Arghakhanchi district.</p>

			'content' => '<p style="text-align:justify"><img alt="" src="/userfiles/images/Clipboard49%2813%29.jpg" style="float:right; height:517px; margin:5px; width:100px" />It was in the late 19th century when Bhuramull Chaudhary opened a shop on Juddha Sadak (now New Road), on an initial yearly rental fee of Rs 200, to deal in textiles imported from various parts of India. Bhuramull Chaudhary was among the few privileged businessmen permitted to enter the palace of Rana Prime Minister Juddha Shumsher. He, along with his son Lunkarandas Chaudhary, carried items from his shop to the palace with the help of porters and arranged an open shop in the courtyard for the royals and the courtiers. This business operation used to function under the informal name of Bhuramull Lunkaran Das as the registration of private business firms was not required back then.&nbsp;</p>

<p style="text-align:justify">Young Lunkarandas took over the business after the demise of his father and went ahead with the business of exporting jute from Biratnagar to overseas markets including United States and Europe. His firms Bhuramull Lunkaran and Arun Impex also used to import fabrics from Japan and Korea.&nbsp;</p>

<p style="text-align:justify">After the success in textiles and jute trading, Lunkarandas established a number of pioneering industries and businesses in the 1960s and early 70s in the country. To name a few, Flooring and Furnishing Center, Modern Hosiery Industry Pvt Ltd, Nepal Spinning and Weaving Pvt Ltd, Arun Emporium, Arun Impex and Ratna Stainless Steel Pvt Ltd are companies started by him that are consideredto be the first companies in Nepal to start the modern businesses of flooring and furnishing, hosiery, synthetic yarn production, departmental stores and manufacturing of stainless steel utensils using Japanese technology, among others. Established in 1957, United Builders was another major business venture of Lunkarandas which constructed the Hotel Soaltee Crowne Plaza and Kathmandu-Trishuli road.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p>

<p style="text-align:justify">Binod Chaudhary, the elder among the three sons of Lunkarandas, has been taking the conglomerate to new international heights by establishing a vast business empire throughout the globe. With his efforts, the group in 1985 started production of Wai Wai instant noodles which used to be produced by Thai Preserved Food Factory Company. CG made every effort to turn the precooked brown noodles into an international Nepali brand. Today, Wai Wai has not only become the biggest brand in Nepal but is also the fastest growing Nepali noodles brand in India where its manufacturer CGFI claims to have a 27 percent market share. In a full swing to go global, Chaudhary Group over the last two years has forayed into the European and US noodles market with its flagship brand Wai Wai. The three Chaudhary brothers own and manage separate businesses but use the same CG banner.</p>

<p style="text-align:justify">After achieving big successes in Nepal, the group made its first international foray with Cinnovation Group in Singapore in 1990. Cinnovation is regarded as the first and only Nepali multinational company to step into the global business arena. It is a multidimensional business approach of the Chaudhary Group which has a wide range of interests in areas including hotels and resorts, wildlife and in-bound tourism, FMCG (food and beverage), real estate,cement and financial services. With 48 companies, Cinnovation has over 4,300 employees across the world.</p>

<p style="text-align:justify">Chaudhary Group now operates in all five continents of the world. It has 136 companies under its umbrella with a diversified business portfolio in sectors including FMCG, consumer electronics, financial services, hospitality and travel, automobile, education, health, energy, real estate and housing, biotech and agribusiness, among many others.</p>

<p style="text-align:justify">The Dugar family carries a 137 year old legacy in business. It all started when Chandan Mal Dugar started trading in fabrics at a &lsquo;haat bazaar&rsquo; (a weekly market organised locally) in Biratnagar. His son Lunkaran Dugar not only continued the trading business but also widened the business by stepping into agro products. The Dugar group charted new heights after the four sons of Lun Karan took over the business. Initially, the group had a presence in textiles and agro products, but later expanded to jute exports, steel, rice mills, among others.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Late Tola Ram Dugar and his younger brother Moti Lal Dugar have played major roles in the diversification of the business. After moving from Dharan to Biratnagar, Tola Ram and Moti Lal diversified the business into jute processing and made Biratnagar the base for the family business. According to Vivek Dugar, his father Moti Lal started the practice of making cash payments to farmers while buying raw food grains from them some six decades ago, which made a huge difference in the agriculture sector.</p>

<p style="text-align:justify">The group started a strawboard paper industry in 1966, ventured into rice and oil mills in Dhangadi and Birgunj, established a stainless steel utensil industry and in 1972 entered the automobile business. These initiatives are considered to be some of the key milestones in the Dugar Family&rsquo; business history.&nbsp;</p>

<p style="text-align:justify">At present, the legacy of Dugar&rsquo;s business is carried out by four groups, each helmed by the four brothers belonging to the third generation of the family. In 1962, the group separated into two groups - TM Dugar and HC Dugar. In 1991, the TM Dugar group separated into TM Dugar Group and KL Dugar Group. In 2015, Motilal Dugar separated from TM Dugar group and formed MV Dugar Group.&nbsp;</p>

<p style="text-align:justify">Among them, KL Dugar is a leading business house in the food industry with brands such as Dhara Oil and Gyan Rice. Similarly, Moti Lal has taken the automobile business to new heights after restructuring the family run business. In addition, the MV Group led by Moti Lal has plans for massive investment in the hydropower sector. Currently, three hydropower projects, totaling 157 MW and amounting to Rs 21 billion, are under construction as part of its plan to engage in projects totaling 500 MW.</p>

<p>&quot;We won&#39;t become developed after becoming rich but we will become rich after becoming developed,&quot; said Oli.</p>

<p>The target may seem ambitious but we are dedicated for the development, Oli said.</p>

<p>He requested the members of FNCCI for their support in the country&#39;s development.</p>

<p>&quot;Previously we were burdened with numerous factors mainly political instability which affected the country&#39;s development. But, at present, the scenario has already change and we have drafted our constitution and decentralized the authority to the local levels with durable government policies. Hence each and every individual must cooperate for development,&quot; Oli added.</p>

<p>PM Oli also informed that the latest agreements made with India focused on the development of the nation. He mentioned about his plans of utilizing the rivers for connecting with seas to conduct trade.</p>

<p>&quot;Railway expansion is almost sure but increasing import is our major concern,&quot; he said. Oli mentioned that FNCCI must focus on productivity and utilize the railways for exporting national products.</p>

<p>He also mentioned that national sovereignty, independence, democracy, political stability and diversity are the five pillars for the development for the country.</p>

			'content' => '<p>April 12: International conference on &quot;Identifying Challenges, Assessing Progress, Moving Forward: Addressing Impunity and Realizing Human Rights in South Asia&quot; hosted by the National Human Rights Commission of Nepal (NHRC) in Kathmandu concluded on Wednesday, April 11. The seven National Human Rights Institutions (NHRIs) representing South Asia reached to an understanding over a number of key issues, which is also included in the Kathmandu Declaration, reads a press statement issued by NHRC.</p>

<p>The conference witnessed the participation of the representatives of NHRIs in the South Asian region including Afghanistan, Bangladesh, Bhutan, India, the Maldives, Pakistan, Sri Lanka and Nepal. The human rights institutions of Malaysia, Mongolia, Myanmar, the Philippines and Jordan, attended along with the leading human rights activists and civil society members from the region.</p>

<p>During the conference, discussions were held on the issues of national security and human rights, migration and livelihood, rights of women and indigenous and marginalized communities.</p>

<p>In the session on Transitional Justice (TJ), a consensus emerged to entirely prioritize the participation of victims&rsquo; groups in the process from the start and the need to see that all four pillars of TJ &nbsp;- truth, reparations, justice and reforms - ensure that crises are not repeated. Also, the conference stood in firm support for the vetting of all security forces seeking promotions or intending to take part in UN peacekeeping missions and to exclude those under investigation.</p>

<p>The declaration issued after the end of the conference called on all South Asian states to review national security and counter-terrorism laws relating to the issue of impunity to ensure that they meet international norms and standards.&nbsp;</p>

<p>While the declaration recognizes the inalienable right of the states to call a state of emergency when national security is genuinely in peril, it also reiterates categorically that under no circumstances the use of torture or attacks on the right to life and the protection of civilians can be justified. All the signatories to the Kathmandu Declaration committed to remain vigilant to any attempts to improperly use national security as a justification for illegitimate restrictions of rights that in no circumstances can be suspended.</p>

<p>The conference discussed at length the issue of migration and stressed the importance of the right of freedom of movement, including in search of employment. &nbsp;While recognizing the economic benefits to migrant labor and the contribution of remittances to the economies of the region, it is increasingly clear that those who migrate for employment, particularly women, are frequently subject to serious abuses including under the Kafala system. The signatories therefore called on governments to bring about necessary legal and administrative measures to protect migrants&#39; rights, in both countries of origin and countries of destination.</p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>

<p>Chairperson of the National Human Rights Commission of Nepal, Anup Raj Sharma, said, &ldquo;Several themes recurred during the three consecutive days such as the need to reach out to civil society and improve the understanding of our work and how it can improve peoples&rsquo; lives practically.&rdquo;</p>

<p>The conference expressed deep concern at continuing gross violation of Human Rights in the region, such as the expulsion of Rohingha from Myanmar.</p>

<p>Expressing her satisfaction at the successful outcome of the meeting, Member of the National Human Rights Commission of Nepal Mohna Ansari said, &ldquo;Perhaps the most important outcome of the conference is the common understanding that only justice and respect for human rights can strengthen the political stability, which is required for prosperity. We also want to promote measures to defend the judiciary and police from political influence to maintain their independence.&rdquo;</p>

<p>The conference was inaugurated on April 9 by President Bidya Devi Bhandari, who stressed on the responsibility of the Nepal government is to endow justice to victims of human rights violations.</p>

<p>Udeep Baral, one of this week&#39;s Russia trip winner stated, &quot;It was completely unexpected.

I would like to thank Coca-Cola Nepal for making this dream trip come true.&quot;</p>

<p>Another winner of Russia trip, Anamika Khatri shared, &quot;When they contacted me to inform me that I was going to Russia to watch live World Cup 2018, I didn&#39;t believe them at first. I thought it was just a prank and I was like, me going to Russia? Impossible, and then after asking them 3 or 4 times, they convinced me that it was real and not a bluff. It is going to be my first trip out of the country and one of the moments I will never forget.&quot;</p>

<p>As of now, 19 winners for the paid Russia trip are yet to be announced. To participate in the campaign, one needs to look behind the label and type Coke &lt;Unique Code&gt; and send SMS to 37722. Winners are selected through lucky draw. The campaign will end on April 15.</p>

			'summary' => 'April 13: CG Impex (P) Ltd, the sole distributor for LG products in Nepal, has launched new refrigerators ranging from single door units to side-by-side refrigerators with InstaView Door-In-Door features. ',
			'content' => '<p>April 13: CG Impex (P) Ltd, the sole distributor for LG products in Nepal, has launched new refrigerators ranging from single door units to side-by-side refrigerators with InstaView Door-In-Door features.&nbsp; Issuing a press statement, the company said that the new line-ups of the double-door units are equipped with the features below.&nbsp;</p>

<p><strong>Linear Cooling</strong><br />
With linear cooling, the temperature gap between the different portions of the refrigerator is significantly reduced; thus, uniform cooling across the refrigerator can be achieved in LG refrigerators with linear cooling. Not just this, linear cooling helps retain freshness in food for up to 14 days, the company claimed.</p>

<p><strong>Inverter Linear Compressor</strong></p>

<p>Inverter linear compressor functions within a temperature range of &plusmn;0.5&deg;C, that&rsquo;s almost half the temperature variation as compared to the conventional compressor. Not just this, it saves 32 percent energy, reduces noise by 25 percent, comes with a 10-year warranty and is certified for a lifespan of 20 years.</p>

<h3>Door Cooling+&trade;</h3>

<p>LG Door Cooling+&trade; makes inside temperature more even and cools the refrigerator 35 percent faster than the conventional cooling system. This reduces the temperature gap between the inner part and the door side of the compartment; thus letting the foods remain fresh for long.</p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>

<p><strong>Smart Diagnosis&trade;</strong></p>

<p>With this feature, servicing an LG refrigerator is much easier and smarter. Customers just need to activate Smart Diagnosis&trade; and let the mobile application guide them through.</p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>

He found both fame and fortune with his supermarket and departmental store chain Bhat-Bhateni. In his early twenties, Gurung, a master&rsquo;s degree holder in economics, had a banking job at Nepal Bank Ltd and was stationed at Nepalgunj. In 1984, Gurung started Bhatbhateni Cold Store, a small retail grocery shop with an initial investment of NRs 35,000 which laid the foundation of his future as one of the successful businessmen in Nepal.&nbsp;</p>

<p style="text-align:justify">Gurung who was juggling the obligations of his banking job in Nepalgunj and his store in Kathmandu until 1992 finally gave up his banking career to fully focus on his business which he believed had immense possibilities. By that time, he already had expanded his cold store to the second floor of the building where he operated his cold store on the first floor. His hard work paid off and Bhat-Bhateni became a leading supermarket and departmental store of Nepal.&nbsp;</p>

<p style="text-align:justify">In the last decade, Bhat-Bhateni has been in a massive expansion spree and has opened 13 stores beginning from one at Maharajgunj of Kathmandu in 2008. These stores are located at various convenient parts of Kathmandu, Bhaktapur, Lalitpur, Pokhara, Chitwan, Dharan and Butwal. It is estimated that there is a daily combined footfall of more than 50,000 people in these stores making Bhat-Bhateni a leading retail chain of Nepal with an estimated daily annual turnover of USD 350,000. Min Bahadur Gurung has further diversified his business interest with investments in the 42 MW Mistri Khola Hydropower Project developed by Robust Energy and Chandragiri Hills Pvt Ltd.</p>

As the business thrived, Chachan Group transformed itself into a business group with several manufacturing units producing the same commodities that it once simply traded.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Today, Chachan Group imports spices, fertilisers, sugar, cement and coal and agro-equipments through its four different trading firms. The group started trading in coal in 2011.&nbsp; The group is also a manufacturer of different popular brands of cement such as Trishakti and Jay Bageshwari. The group produces cement through Narayani Cement Udhyog and Jai Bageshwari Cement. The latter was established three years ago.&nbsp;</p>

<p>The group is strongly focused on its cement industries and plans to establish several clinker plants. It has already bought limestone mines in parts of Udaypur, Palpa and Arghakhanchi district.</p>

			'content' => '<p style="text-align:justify"><img alt="" src="/userfiles/images/Clipboard49%2813%29.jpg" style="float:right; height:517px; margin:5px; width:100px" />It was in the late 19th century when Bhuramull Chaudhary opened a shop on Juddha Sadak (now New Road), on an initial yearly rental fee of Rs 200, to deal in textiles imported from various parts of India. Bhuramull Chaudhary was among the few privileged businessmen permitted to enter the palace of Rana Prime Minister Juddha Shumsher. He, along with his son Lunkarandas Chaudhary, carried items from his shop to the palace with the help of porters and arranged an open shop in the courtyard for the royals and the courtiers. This business operation used to function under the informal name of Bhuramull Lunkaran Das as the registration of private business firms was not required back then.&nbsp;</p>

<p style="text-align:justify">Young Lunkarandas took over the business after the demise of his father and went ahead with the business of exporting jute from Biratnagar to overseas markets including United States and Europe. His firms Bhuramull Lunkaran and Arun Impex also used to import fabrics from Japan and Korea.&nbsp;</p>

<p style="text-align:justify">After the success in textiles and jute trading, Lunkarandas established a number of pioneering industries and businesses in the 1960s and early 70s in the country. To name a few, Flooring and Furnishing Center, Modern Hosiery Industry Pvt Ltd, Nepal Spinning and Weaving Pvt Ltd, Arun Emporium, Arun Impex and Ratna Stainless Steel Pvt Ltd are companies started by him that are consideredto be the first companies in Nepal to start the modern businesses of flooring and furnishing, hosiery, synthetic yarn production, departmental stores and manufacturing of stainless steel utensils using Japanese technology, among others. Established in 1957, United Builders was another major business venture of Lunkarandas which constructed the Hotel Soaltee Crowne Plaza and Kathmandu-Trishuli road.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p>

<p style="text-align:justify">Binod Chaudhary, the elder among the three sons of Lunkarandas, has been taking the conglomerate to new international heights by establishing a vast business empire throughout the globe. With his efforts, the group in 1985 started production of Wai Wai instant noodles which used to be produced by Thai Preserved Food Factory Company. CG made every effort to turn the precooked brown noodles into an international Nepali brand. Today, Wai Wai has not only become the biggest brand in Nepal but is also the fastest growing Nepali noodles brand in India where its manufacturer CGFI claims to have a 27 percent market share. In a full swing to go global, Chaudhary Group over the last two years has forayed into the European and US noodles market with its flagship brand Wai Wai. The three Chaudhary brothers own and manage separate businesses but use the same CG banner.</p>

<p style="text-align:justify">After achieving big successes in Nepal, the group made its first international foray with Cinnovation Group in Singapore in 1990. Cinnovation is regarded as the first and only Nepali multinational company to step into the global business arena. It is a multidimensional business approach of the Chaudhary Group which has a wide range of interests in areas including hotels and resorts, wildlife and in-bound tourism, FMCG (food and beverage), real estate,cement and financial services. With 48 companies, Cinnovation has over 4,300 employees across the world.</p>

<p style="text-align:justify">Chaudhary Group now operates in all five continents of the world. It has 136 companies under its umbrella with a diversified business portfolio in sectors including FMCG, consumer electronics, financial services, hospitality and travel, automobile, education, health, energy, real estate and housing, biotech and agribusiness, among many others.</p>

<p style="text-align:justify">The Dugar family carries a 137 year old legacy in business. It all started when Chandan Mal Dugar started trading in fabrics at a &lsquo;haat bazaar&rsquo; (a weekly market organised locally) in Biratnagar. His son Lunkaran Dugar not only continued the trading business but also widened the business by stepping into agro products. The Dugar group charted new heights after the four sons of Lun Karan took over the business. Initially, the group had a presence in textiles and agro products, but later expanded to jute exports, steel, rice mills, among others.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Late Tola Ram Dugar and his younger brother Moti Lal Dugar have played major roles in the diversification of the business. After moving from Dharan to Biratnagar, Tola Ram and Moti Lal diversified the business into jute processing and made Biratnagar the base for the family business. According to Vivek Dugar, his father Moti Lal started the practice of making cash payments to farmers while buying raw food grains from them some six decades ago, which made a huge difference in the agriculture sector.</p>

<p style="text-align:justify">The group started a strawboard paper industry in 1966, ventured into rice and oil mills in Dhangadi and Birgunj, established a stainless steel utensil industry and in 1972 entered the automobile business. These initiatives are considered to be some of the key milestones in the Dugar Family&rsquo; business history.&nbsp;</p>

<p style="text-align:justify">At present, the legacy of Dugar&rsquo;s business is carried out by four groups, each helmed by the four brothers belonging to the third generation of the family. In 1962, the group separated into two groups - TM Dugar and HC Dugar. In 1991, the TM Dugar group separated into TM Dugar Group and KL Dugar Group. In 2015, Motilal Dugar separated from TM Dugar group and formed MV Dugar Group.&nbsp;</p>

<p style="text-align:justify">Among them, KL Dugar is a leading business house in the food industry with brands such as Dhara Oil and Gyan Rice. Similarly, Moti Lal has taken the automobile business to new heights after restructuring the family run business. In addition, the MV Group led by Moti Lal has plans for massive investment in the hydropower sector. Currently, three hydropower projects, totaling 157 MW and amounting to Rs 21 billion, are under construction as part of its plan to engage in projects totaling 500 MW.</p>

He made such remark during the 52nd Annual General Assembly of the Federation of Nepalese Chamber of Commerce and Industry (FNCCI).&nbsp;&nbsp;</p>

<p>&quot;We won&#39;t become developed after becoming rich but we will become rich after becoming developed,&quot; said Oli.</p>

<p>The target may seem ambitious but we are dedicated for the development, Oli said.</p>

<p>He requested the members of FNCCI for their support in the country&#39;s development.</p>

<p>&quot;Previously we were burdened with numerous factors mainly political instability which affected the country&#39;s development. But, at present, the scenario has already change and we have drafted our constitution and decentralized the authority to the local levels with durable government policies. Hence each and every individual must cooperate for development,&quot; Oli added.</p>

<p>PM Oli also informed that the latest agreements made with India focused on the development of the nation. He mentioned about his plans of utilizing the rivers for connecting with seas to conduct trade.</p>

<p>&quot;Railway expansion is almost sure but increasing import is our major concern,&quot; he said. Oli mentioned that FNCCI must focus on productivity and utilize the railways for exporting national products.</p>

<p>He also mentioned that national sovereignty, independence, democracy, political stability and diversity are the five pillars for the development for the country.</p>

			'content' => '<p>April 12: International conference on &quot;Identifying Challenges, Assessing Progress, Moving Forward: Addressing Impunity and Realizing Human Rights in South Asia&quot; hosted by the National Human Rights Commission of Nepal (NHRC) in Kathmandu concluded on Wednesday, April 11. The seven National Human Rights Institutions (NHRIs) representing South Asia reached to an understanding over a number of key issues, which is also included in the Kathmandu Declaration, reads a press statement issued by NHRC.</p>

<p>The conference witnessed the participation of the representatives of NHRIs in the South Asian region including Afghanistan, Bangladesh, Bhutan, India, the Maldives, Pakistan, Sri Lanka and Nepal. The human rights institutions of Malaysia, Mongolia, Myanmar, the Philippines and Jordan, attended along with the leading human rights activists and civil society members from the region.</p>

<p>During the conference, discussions were held on the issues of national security and human rights, migration and livelihood, rights of women and indigenous and marginalized communities.</p>

<p>In the session on Transitional Justice (TJ), a consensus emerged to entirely prioritize the participation of victims&rsquo; groups in the process from the start and the need to see that all four pillars of TJ &nbsp;- truth, reparations, justice and reforms - ensure that crises are not repeated. Also, the conference stood in firm support for the vetting of all security forces seeking promotions or intending to take part in UN peacekeeping missions and to exclude those under investigation.</p>

<p>The declaration issued after the end of the conference called on all South Asian states to review national security and counter-terrorism laws relating to the issue of impunity to ensure that they meet international norms and standards.&nbsp;</p>

<p>While the declaration recognizes the inalienable right of the states to call a state of emergency when national security is genuinely in peril, it also reiterates categorically that under no circumstances the use of torture or attacks on the right to life and the protection of civilians can be justified. All the signatories to the Kathmandu Declaration committed to remain vigilant to any attempts to improperly use national security as a justification for illegitimate restrictions of rights that in no circumstances can be suspended.</p>

<p>The conference discussed at length the issue of migration and stressed the importance of the right of freedom of movement, including in search of employment. &nbsp;While recognizing the economic benefits to migrant labor and the contribution of remittances to the economies of the region, it is increasingly clear that those who migrate for employment, particularly women, are frequently subject to serious abuses including under the Kafala system. The signatories therefore called on governments to bring about necessary legal and administrative measures to protect migrants&#39; rights, in both countries of origin and countries of destination.</p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>

<p>Chairperson of the National Human Rights Commission of Nepal, Anup Raj Sharma, said, &ldquo;Several themes recurred during the three consecutive days such as the need to reach out to civil society and improve the understanding of our work and how it can improve peoples&rsquo; lives practically.&rdquo;</p>

<p>The conference expressed deep concern at continuing gross violation of Human Rights in the region, such as the expulsion of Rohingha from Myanmar.</p>

<p>Expressing her satisfaction at the successful outcome of the meeting, Member of the National Human Rights Commission of Nepal Mohna Ansari said, &ldquo;Perhaps the most important outcome of the conference is the common understanding that only justice and respect for human rights can strengthen the political stability, which is required for prosperity. We also want to promote measures to defend the judiciary and police from political influence to maintain their independence.&rdquo;</p>

<p>The conference was inaugurated on April 9 by President Bidya Devi Bhandari, who stressed on the responsibility of the Nepal government is to endow justice to victims of human rights violations.</p>

I would like to thank Coca-Cola Nepal for making this dream trip come true.&quot;</p>

<p>Another winner of Russia trip, Anamika Khatri shared, &quot;When they contacted me to inform me that I was going to Russia to watch live World Cup 2018, I didn&#39;t believe them at first. I thought it was just a prank and I was like, me going to Russia? Impossible, and then after asking them 3 or 4 times, they convinced me that it was real and not a bluff. It is going to be my first trip out of the country and one of the moments I will never forget.&quot;</p>

<p>As of now, 19 winners for the paid Russia trip are yet to be announced. To participate in the campaign, one needs to look behind the label and type Coke &lt;Unique Code&gt; and send SMS to 37722. Winners are selected through lucky draw. The campaign will end on April 15.</p>

			'summary' => 'April 13: CG Impex (P) Ltd, the sole distributor for LG products in Nepal, has launched new refrigerators ranging from single door units to side-by-side refrigerators with InstaView Door-In-Door features. ',
			'content' => '<p>April 13: CG Impex (P) Ltd, the sole distributor for LG products in Nepal, has launched new refrigerators ranging from single door units to side-by-side refrigerators with InstaView Door-In-Door features.&nbsp; Issuing a press statement, the company said that the new line-ups of the double-door units are equipped with the features below.&nbsp;</p>

<p><strong>Linear Cooling</strong><br />
With linear cooling, the temperature gap between the different portions of the refrigerator is significantly reduced; thus, uniform cooling across the refrigerator can be achieved in LG refrigerators with linear cooling. Not just this, linear cooling helps retain freshness in food for up to 14 days, the company claimed.</p>

<p><strong>Inverter Linear Compressor</strong></p>

<p>Inverter linear compressor functions within a temperature range of &plusmn;0.5&deg;C, that&rsquo;s almost half the temperature variation as compared to the conventional compressor. Not just this, it saves 32 percent energy, reduces noise by 25 percent, comes with a 10-year warranty and is certified for a lifespan of 20 years.</p>

<h3>Door Cooling+&trade;</h3>

<p>LG Door Cooling+&trade; makes inside temperature more even and cools the refrigerator 35 percent faster than the conventional cooling system. This reduces the temperature gap between the inner part and the door side of the compartment; thus letting the foods remain fresh for long.</p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>

<p><strong>Smart Diagnosis&trade;</strong></p>

<p>With this feature, servicing an LG refrigerator is much easier and smarter. Customers just need to activate Smart Diagnosis&trade; and let the mobile application guide them through.</p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>

<p><strong>Auto Smart Connect&trade;</strong></p>

<p>Auto Smart Connect&trade; is a technology that helps connect the refrigerator to home inverter. Once the refrigerator is connected to the home inverter, every time the power goes off, it automatically takes inverter power to run the refrigerator without any manual supervision. LG refrigerators with this feature, consume power less than 2 CFL~ bulbs during power cut.</p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>

<p><strong>100V~290V LVS, Stabilizer-Free Operation</strong><br />
LG refrigerators perform optimally even in low voltage conditions. They operate within the range of 100~290V and can withstand voltage fluctuations making it virtually stabilizer free.</p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>

<p><strong>Ever Fresh Zone</strong></p>

<p>LG refrigerators are equipped with a special large fresh zone with Moist Balance Crisper and Humidity Controller that keeps vegetables fresh for longer.</p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>

<p><strong>2-Liter Bottle Storage</strong><br />
There is ample space to keep bigger 2-liter bottles in the refrigerator door.</p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>

<p><strong>Double Twist Ice Tray</strong></p>

<p>This feature in the LG refrigerators allows you to get easy access for ice when you need some extra.</p>

			'content' => '<p style="text-align:justify"><img alt="" src="/userfiles/images/Clipboard42%286%29.jpg" style="float:right; height:201px; margin:5px; width:100px" />Min Bahadur Gurung, the chairman and managing director of Bhat-Bhateni Group, is known for turning a small grocery store into a retail giant. He found both fame and fortune with his supermarket and departmental store chain Bhat-Bhateni. In his early twenties, Gurung, a master&rsquo;s degree holder in economics, had a banking job at Nepal Bank Ltd and was stationed at Nepalgunj. In 1984, Gurung started Bhatbhateni Cold Store, a small retail grocery shop with an initial investment of NRs 35,000 which laid the foundation of his future as one of the successful businessmen in Nepal.&nbsp;</p>

<p style="text-align:justify">Gurung who was juggling the obligations of his banking job in Nepalgunj and his store in Kathmandu until 1992 finally gave up his banking career to fully focus on his business which he believed had immense possibilities. By that time, he already had expanded his cold store to the second floor of the building where he operated his cold store on the first floor. His hard work paid off and Bhat-Bhateni became a leading supermarket and departmental store of Nepal.&nbsp;</p>

<p style="text-align:justify">In the last decade, Bhat-Bhateni has been in a massive expansion spree and has opened 13 stores beginning from one at Maharajgunj of Kathmandu in 2008. These stores are located at various convenient parts of Kathmandu, Bhaktapur, Lalitpur, Pokhara, Chitwan, Dharan and Butwal. It is estimated that there is a daily combined footfall of more than 50,000 people in these stores making Bhat-Bhateni a leading retail chain of Nepal with an estimated daily annual turnover of USD 350,000. Min Bahadur Gurung has further diversified his business interest with investments in the 42 MW Mistri Khola Hydropower Project developed by Robust Energy and Chandragiri Hills Pvt Ltd.</p>

As the business thrived, Chachan Group transformed itself into a business group with several manufacturing units producing the same commodities that it once simply traded.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Today, Chachan Group imports spices, fertilisers, sugar, cement and coal and agro-equipments through its four different trading firms. The group started trading in coal in 2011.&nbsp; The group is also a manufacturer of different popular brands of cement such as Trishakti and Jay Bageshwari. The group produces cement through Narayani Cement Udhyog and Jai Bageshwari Cement. The latter was established three years ago.&nbsp;</p>

<p>The group is strongly focused on its cement industries and plans to establish several clinker plants. It has already bought limestone mines in parts of Udaypur, Palpa and Arghakhanchi district.</p>

			'content' => '<p style="text-align:justify"><img alt="" src="/userfiles/images/Clipboard49%2813%29.jpg" style="float:right; height:517px; margin:5px; width:100px" />It was in the late 19th century when Bhuramull Chaudhary opened a shop on Juddha Sadak (now New Road), on an initial yearly rental fee of Rs 200, to deal in textiles imported from various parts of India. Bhuramull Chaudhary was among the few privileged businessmen permitted to enter the palace of Rana Prime Minister Juddha Shumsher. He, along with his son Lunkarandas Chaudhary, carried items from his shop to the palace with the help of porters and arranged an open shop in the courtyard for the royals and the courtiers. This business operation used to function under the informal name of Bhuramull Lunkaran Das as the registration of private business firms was not required back then.&nbsp;</p>

<p style="text-align:justify">Young Lunkarandas took over the business after the demise of his father and went ahead with the business of exporting jute from Biratnagar to overseas markets including United States and Europe. His firms Bhuramull Lunkaran and Arun Impex also used to import fabrics from Japan and Korea.&nbsp;</p>

<p style="text-align:justify">After the success in textiles and jute trading, Lunkarandas established a number of pioneering industries and businesses in the 1960s and early 70s in the country. To name a few, Flooring and Furnishing Center, Modern Hosiery Industry Pvt Ltd, Nepal Spinning and Weaving Pvt Ltd, Arun Emporium, Arun Impex and Ratna Stainless Steel Pvt Ltd are companies started by him that are consideredto be the first companies in Nepal to start the modern businesses of flooring and furnishing, hosiery, synthetic yarn production, departmental stores and manufacturing of stainless steel utensils using Japanese technology, among others. Established in 1957, United Builders was another major business venture of Lunkarandas which constructed the Hotel Soaltee Crowne Plaza and Kathmandu-Trishuli road.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p>

<p style="text-align:justify">Binod Chaudhary, the elder among the three sons of Lunkarandas, has been taking the conglomerate to new international heights by establishing a vast business empire throughout the globe. With his efforts, the group in 1985 started production of Wai Wai instant noodles which used to be produced by Thai Preserved Food Factory Company. CG made every effort to turn the precooked brown noodles into an international Nepali brand. Today, Wai Wai has not only become the biggest brand in Nepal but is also the fastest growing Nepali noodles brand in India where its manufacturer CGFI claims to have a 27 percent market share. In a full swing to go global, Chaudhary Group over the last two years has forayed into the European and US noodles market with its flagship brand Wai Wai. The three Chaudhary brothers own and manage separate businesses but use the same CG banner.</p>

<p style="text-align:justify">After achieving big successes in Nepal, the group made its first international foray with Cinnovation Group in Singapore in 1990. Cinnovation is regarded as the first and only Nepali multinational company to step into the global business arena. It is a multidimensional business approach of the Chaudhary Group which has a wide range of interests in areas including hotels and resorts, wildlife and in-bound tourism, FMCG (food and beverage), real estate,cement and financial services. With 48 companies, Cinnovation has over 4,300 employees across the world.</p>

<p style="text-align:justify">Chaudhary Group now operates in all five continents of the world. It has 136 companies under its umbrella with a diversified business portfolio in sectors including FMCG, consumer electronics, financial services, hospitality and travel, automobile, education, health, energy, real estate and housing, biotech and agribusiness, among many others.</p>

<p style="text-align:justify">The Dugar family carries a 137 year old legacy in business. It all started when Chandan Mal Dugar started trading in fabrics at a &lsquo;haat bazaar&rsquo; (a weekly market organised locally) in Biratnagar. His son Lunkaran Dugar not only continued the trading business but also widened the business by stepping into agro products. The Dugar group charted new heights after the four sons of Lun Karan took over the business. Initially, the group had a presence in textiles and agro products, but later expanded to jute exports, steel, rice mills, among others.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Late Tola Ram Dugar and his younger brother Moti Lal Dugar have played major roles in the diversification of the business. After moving from Dharan to Biratnagar, Tola Ram and Moti Lal diversified the business into jute processing and made Biratnagar the base for the family business. According to Vivek Dugar, his father Moti Lal started the practice of making cash payments to farmers while buying raw food grains from them some six decades ago, which made a huge difference in the agriculture sector.</p>

<p style="text-align:justify">The group started a strawboard paper industry in 1966, ventured into rice and oil mills in Dhangadi and Birgunj, established a stainless steel utensil industry and in 1972 entered the automobile business. These initiatives are considered to be some of the key milestones in the Dugar Family&rsquo; business history.&nbsp;</p>

<p style="text-align:justify">At present, the legacy of Dugar&rsquo;s business is carried out by four groups, each helmed by the four brothers belonging to the third generation of the family. In 1962, the group separated into two groups - TM Dugar and HC Dugar. In 1991, the TM Dugar group separated into TM Dugar Group and KL Dugar Group. In 2015, Motilal Dugar separated from TM Dugar group and formed MV Dugar Group.&nbsp;</p>

<p style="text-align:justify">Among them, KL Dugar is a leading business house in the food industry with brands such as Dhara Oil and Gyan Rice. Similarly, Moti Lal has taken the automobile business to new heights after restructuring the family run business. In addition, the MV Group led by Moti Lal has plans for massive investment in the hydropower sector. Currently, three hydropower projects, totaling 157 MW and amounting to Rs 21 billion, are under construction as part of its plan to engage in projects totaling 500 MW.</p>

<p>&quot;Previously we were burdened with numerous factors mainly political instability which affected the country&#39;s development.

			'content' => '<p>April 12: International conference on &quot;Identifying Challenges, Assessing Progress, Moving Forward: Addressing Impunity and Realizing Human Rights in South Asia&quot; hosted by the National Human Rights Commission of Nepal (NHRC) in Kathmandu concluded on Wednesday, April 11. The seven National Human Rights Institutions (NHRIs) representing South Asia reached to an understanding over a number of key issues, which is also included in the Kathmandu Declaration, reads a press statement issued by NHRC.</p>

<p>The conference witnessed the participation of the representatives of NHRIs in the South Asian region including Afghanistan, Bangladesh, Bhutan, India, the Maldives, Pakistan, Sri Lanka and Nepal. The human rights institutions of Malaysia, Mongolia, Myanmar, the Philippines and Jordan, attended along with the leading human rights activists and civil society members from the region.</p>

<p>During the conference, discussions were held on the issues of national security and human rights, migration and livelihood, rights of women and indigenous and marginalized communities.</p>

<p>In the session on Transitional Justice (TJ), a consensus emerged to entirely prioritize the participation of victims&rsquo; groups in the process from the start and the need to see that all four pillars of TJ &nbsp;- truth, reparations, justice and reforms - ensure that crises are not repeated. Also, the conference stood in firm support for the vetting of all security forces seeking promotions or intending to take part in UN peacekeeping missions and to exclude those under investigation.</p>

<p>The declaration issued after the end of the conference called on all South Asian states to review national security and counter-terrorism laws relating to the issue of impunity to ensure that they meet international norms and standards.&nbsp;</p>

<p>While the declaration recognizes the inalienable right of the states to call a state of emergency when national security is genuinely in peril, it also reiterates categorically that under no circumstances the use of torture or attacks on the right to life and the protection of civilians can be justified. All the signatories to the Kathmandu Declaration committed to remain vigilant to any attempts to improperly use national security as a justification for illegitimate restrictions of rights that in no circumstances can be suspended.</p>

<p>The conference discussed at length the issue of migration and stressed the importance of the right of freedom of movement, including in search of employment. &nbsp;While recognizing the economic benefits to migrant labor and the contribution of remittances to the economies of the region, it is increasingly clear that those who migrate for employment, particularly women, are frequently subject to serious abuses including under the Kafala system. The signatories therefore called on governments to bring about necessary legal and administrative measures to protect migrants&#39; rights, in both countries of origin and countries of destination.</p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>

<p>Chairperson of the National Human Rights Commission of Nepal, Anup Raj Sharma, said, &ldquo;Several themes recurred during the three consecutive days such as the need to reach out to civil society and improve the understanding of our work and how it can improve peoples&rsquo; lives practically.&rdquo;</p>

<p>The conference expressed deep concern at continuing gross violation of Human Rights in the region, such as the expulsion of Rohingha from Myanmar.</p>

<p>Expressing her satisfaction at the successful outcome of the meeting, Member of the National Human Rights Commission of Nepal Mohna Ansari said, &ldquo;Perhaps the most important outcome of the conference is the common understanding that only justice and respect for human rights can strengthen the political stability, which is required for prosperity. We also want to promote measures to defend the judiciary and police from political influence to maintain their independence.&rdquo;</p>

<p>The conference was inaugurated on April 9 by President Bidya Devi Bhandari, who stressed on the responsibility of the Nepal government is to endow justice to victims of human rights violations.</p>

I would like to thank Coca-Cola Nepal for making this dream trip come true.&quot;</p>

<p>Another winner of Russia trip, Anamika Khatri shared, &quot;When they contacted me to inform me that I was going to Russia to watch live World Cup 2018, I didn&#39;t believe them at first. I thought it was just a prank and I was like, me going to Russia? Impossible, and then after asking them 3 or 4 times, they convinced me that it was real and not a bluff. It is going to be my first trip out of the country and one of the moments I will never forget.&quot;</p>
