Everest ‘traffic jam’
KATHMANDU: Mountaineering experts warned on Tuesday that potentially dangerous levels of overcrowding were expected on Mount Everest after four climbers died as “traffic jams” clogged up the world’s tallest peak. Some 200 people will attempt to scale the 8,848-metre summit this weekend.
State honours
KATHMANDU: Two hundred and seventy people from all walks of life were on Tuesday given state honours for their special contribution to the country. This is the first time that the government decided to award different personalities after the country was declared Republic in 2007.
