Kathmandu, Jan 15: Makar Mela, the big religious fair that takes place every 12 years has been started in the historic, religious-cultural, touristic town Panauti today.    

Earlier a meeting of the District COVID-19 Control, Prevention and Management Centre (DCCMC) has directed the local levels not to organize any programmes or fairs with the participation of more than 25 persons owing to the high risk of the Novel Coronavirus infection.   

Following this directive, the religious fair has been started for a month from today. The religious fair takes place at Trivenighat area in Panauti Municipality-7.
