Nepal Readies To Declare 4-Day Public Holiday For Upcoming CA Polls

Sources: Nepal News and Nepal public holidays. Nepal's Home Minister, Krishna Prasad Sitaula, has announced that the government is about to announce a four-day holiday keeping in view the election to the Constituent Assembly (CA) on April 10. No dates have been announced yet, but as Saturday is already the weekly day off in Nepal, and Sunday is a public holiday for Nepali New Year, it seems safe to assume that this 4-day public holiday declaration is actually the declaration of Friday, April 11, 2008, as a bridge public holiday.
