Most of the agencies present in the country have established head offices in Kathmandu along with their support offices in the major cities in other provinces. However, Karnali Province could pose a challenge because of its ruralness. Jumla’s market although capable to provide adequate support within its locality, it would not sustain the needs of surrounding districts or areas. A proper channel to access the remote districts of Karnali Province from Birendranagar or Nepalgunj through airways should be planned beforehand. For more information on company contact details, please see the following link: 4.11 Additional Services Contact List. Accommodation Department of Tourism data shows that in total 1,101 accommodations (Star Hotel and Tourist Standard Hotel) with a total capacity of 39,833 beds are in operation in Nepal.

There is an abundance of hotels in Kathmandu as well as major tourist destinations like Pokhara, Chitwan and in gateway cities like Nepalgunj, Bhairahawa, Birgunj and Biratnagar. If one ventures further into districts, accommodation facilities are available at district headquarters but are rare in rural municipalities. Alternatives like homestay should be sought. Electricity and Power The Nepal Electricity Authority (NEA) was established on August 16, 1985 with primary objective to generate, transmit and distribute adequate, reliable and affordable power by planning, constructing, operating and maintaining all generation, transmission and distribution facilities in Nepal's power system, both interconnected and isolated. NEA purchases 2,190.05 GWH from Independent Power producers (IPPs) within the country and also imports from India. The total energy imported from India was 2,813.07 GWH as compared to 2,581.80 GWH in FY 2017/18, an increase by 8.96 %. Out of the total available energy, NEA’s own generation contributed 33.75%, whereas those imported from India and domestic IPPs accounted for 37.25 % and 29.00 % respectively.

  • Field Diary Birgunj ICD: Nepal's Largest Dry Port
    Field Diary Birgunj ICD: Nepal’s Largest Dry Port Sugam Bajracharya Research Fellow, Nepal Economic Forum About the Field Visit In collaboration with CUTS International, Nepal Economic Forum (NEF) conducted a field survey under the study ‘Enabling a Political-Economy Discourse for Multimodal Connectivity in the BBIN Sub-region.’ As a result, a team of enumerators from NEF visited the Birgunj Inland Clearance Depot (ICD), the Birgunj Integrated Check Point (ICP), and the surrounding city of Birgunj in December 2020. The objective of the visit was to make a ground-level assessment of the current scenario of the developments in port infrastructure, trade logistics, and the surrounding infrastructure that might play a pivotal role in the multimodal connectivity of Nepal and the BBIN sub-region. The visit also intended to hold stakeholder consultations to get a view of challenges in daily trade operations. Connectivity to Birgunj ICD and ICP The Birgunj ICD is located in the Parsa district of Province 2. The nearest city, Birgunj, is at a distance of 8 km from the dry port, and the nearest Simara airport is 23.4 km away. The ICP is located right next to the ICD at the Nepal-India border. The city of Birgunj is about 140 km south of Kathmandu and takes about four and a half hours to reach via the Kulekhani-Hetauda route. However, large vehicles like buses and trucks are only allowed to travel the Kathmandu-Birgunj route via the Prithvi Highway, which is about 300 km and takes approximately 8-10 hours. Therefore, a 15-minute direct flight from the Tribhuvan International Airport in Kathmandu to Simara Airport is the fastest option available to travel to Birgunj.
