Kathmandu, Mar. 19: The government is set to tighten movements at southern transits with India in a bid to fight coronavirus (COVID-19).
A meeting of the national disaster risk reduction and management authority at Singha Durbar on Thursday took a decision in this regard.
On the occasion, Home Minister Ram Bahadur Thapa said preparedness against the infection is in place. "The situation has not reached the point like something of worse.
