    How to get NRN citizenship card from Nepal?

    This episode focuses on the process of obtaining the Non Residential Nepalese Citizenship Certificate from Nepal. This is from recent experience for someone holding an American Passport, however, this can be useful for non-American Nepalese citizens of other countries as well, as the process of getting the NRN citizenship is basically the same for all.

    For Nepalese-Americans, please, refer to https://us.nepalembassy.gov.np/nrn-id/ for the NRN ID that Embassy of Nepal in DC issues. The cost to get the NRN ID Card from Embassy of Nepal in DC is $520.00. Since, it says it is valid for 10 years, it probably is different than what you can get from your CDO's office. The Non Residential Nepali Citizenship certificate doesn't have a expiration date.

  • An Unsolved Murder Mystery

    In B.S. 2038, a gruesome murder of three young girls in Pokhara shook the nation of Nepal. This is a story about what led to the incident and what followed thereafter. Details of the incident were collected from various reporting of the incident in numerous media, and also from a book by Kishor Shrestha called "दरबार काण्डपछि दबाइएको अर्को हत्याकाण्ड" which I can't recommend enough.
