The Government of Nepal has decided to stop all advertisements from federal, provincial, and local bodies in private media outlets. The directive, issued by the Prime Minister’s Office to ministries, commissions, provincial governments, and local units, is aimed at promoting fiscal discipline, improving transparency in the dissemination of public information, and strengthening state-owned media platforms. A letter circulated on Wednesday stated that the move seeks to ensure frugality, transparency, and greater use of government-run media channels.
