Nepalese PM Oli to visit India on Sept 16-17: Foreign Ministry sources
Kathmandu, Aug 11 (PTI) Nepalese Prime Minister K P Sharma Oli is likely to pay an official visit to India from September 16-17, the Foreign Ministry sources said here on Monday. A wide range of issues, such as trade, tourism, information technology, connectivity, hydropower and border, will be discussed during the visit, they added. The Foreign Ministry is currently working towards finalising the agenda and itinerary for the proposed high-level visit, said the Foreign Minister's Press Advisor Ek Raj Pathak. On Monday, Foreign Minister Arzu Rana Deuba, who would be part of Oli's delegation, said that direct flights between Nepalgunj and Delhi will be on 'top" of her agenda during the upcoming visit to India. 'Direct air connectivity between Nepalgunj, a Western Nepal city, and New Delhi will be my top agenda," Deuba said at a meeting with political leaders, lawmakers and industrialists at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. 'If this happens, it will certainly change the face of Western Nepal," she said, adding that the government has already done the necessary groundwork to strengthen the necessary infrastructure in the area for the purpose. The people from around 25 districts of Western Nepal will benefit from the proposed direct flight between Nepalgunj and Delhi, Deuba said. Nepalgunj can be the gateway to Kailash-Mansarovar situated in Tibet if we start direct flights between Nepalgunj and Delhi, she added. The proposed flight between the two cities will benefit the people of both countries, she pointed out. Nepal shares a border of over 1,850 km with five Indian states – Sikkim, West Bengal, Bihar, Uttar Pradesh and Uttarakhand. Land-locked Nepal relies heavily on India for the transportation of goods and services. Nepal is also important for India in the context of its overall strategic interests in the region, and the leaders of the two countries have often noted the age-old 'Roti Beti" relationship.

Ather Rizta electric scooter launched in Nepal
Ather Energy has officially brought its family-oriented electric scooter, the Rizta , to Nepal. The launch signals a deeper commitment to the growing EV landscape in the country, with Ather continuing to expand its footprint beyond India. The Rizta marks Ather's second product in the Nepalese market, following the earlier success of the Ather 450 series. Designed with practicality and everyday comfort in mind, the Rizta is tailored for families and urban commuters looking for a spacious, feature-rich, and reliable electric ride. The scooter comes with a generous 56-litre storage capacity—offering 34 litres under the seat and an optional 22-litre front trunk. Ather has also paid attention to rider comfort, with a wide seat and roomy floorboard space. Safety features such as SkidControl aim to provide additional peace of mind, especially in challenging road conditions. Tech-savvy users will appreciate the 7-inch TFT display, built-in Google Maps navigation, Bluetooth call/music control, and other connected features powered by AtherStack Pro.

'Nepal was our first international market, and the response so far—especially to the 450 series—has been very promising. With the Rizta, we're entering a new segment aimed at family users who value comfort, safety, and convenience." Ather's expansion in Nepal has been swift and steady. Since its entry in November 2023, the company has established nine Experience Centres and six Service Centres across the country through its local partner, Vaidya Energy Pvt. Ltd. Ather has also installed 22 fast-charging points under its Ather Grid network to improve access to charging infrastructure. This launch also continues Ather's broader international ambitions. After debuting in Nepal, the company made its way to Sri Lanka in December 2024, where it now operates 19 Experience Centres and 9 Service Centres. Back in India, the company has built a wide-reaching network with over 400 Experience Centres and nearly 4,000 charging points nationwide. With the Rizta now available for test rides and purchase across its Nepalese Experience Centres, Ather is aiming to win over a wider audience looking for a practical and modern electric mobility solution.
