In the recent period, investment in the hotel sector in Birgunj has observed a tremendous growth. However, the hotel business here is booming not because of tourists but due to business meetings.<br /> <br /> Hari Pant, chairman of hotel and tourism entrepreneurs association of Birgunj, says hotels in Birgunj are sustaining their business because of the guests of business houses but not tourists. <br /> <br /> “The hotels so far have been operating their business depending on the guests of industries and their business activities. They now need to extend their service targeting tourists as well," he added.<br /> <br /> Diyalo Lords Plaza, a three-star hotel in Birgunj, was established with Rs 1 billion investment and is likely to receive a four-star status very soon. Anil Kumar Rungta, owner of Diyalo Lords Plaza, says he invested in the hotel believing Birgunj to become a tourist destination in future. <br /> <br /> Previously, VVIP guests travelling to Birgunj were to travel twenty six kilometers away to Hotel Ichhya, Simara in absence of posh hotels. But now Diyalo Lords Plaza is expected to make the stay of VVIP guests remarkable within the city.<br /> <br /> Hotel depended on industries<br /> According to Pant top ranking business entrepreneurs and auditors coming to Birgunj and nearby industrial areas are mainly the targeted customers of the hotels in Birgunj and the hotels are benefiting from the ongoing construction of new industries being established in Bara-Parsa industrial corridor. <br /> <br /> Risk<br /> Hotel entrepreneurs inform hotels in Birgunj have received more than Rs 20 billion investment. According to the entrepreneurs the hotel business in Birgunj will be at risk if they have to continue the business depending on the guest of the industrial sector.<br /> "We should work to find ways for brining tourists or else hotels won’t be able to sustain additional investment," Pant added. He further said that the hotels are already having tough competition for service charge. <br /> "In the hotel business we sell services rather than commodities which is why we are observing tight competition. In the last one year alone six new big hotels have opened here for," he added. <br /> <br /> Birgunj for marriages<br /> In recent time the number of people arriving Birgunj from India for marriage ceremony has increased. Due to the lack of hotels in Raxaul (the closest Indian border to Birgunj) most of the Indians come to Birgunj and conduct the marriage ceremony. Such events have become a good source of earning for the hotels which almost earn Rs 1 million per marriage. According to sources the hotels in Birgunj charge comparatively less than the hotels in major Indian cities . The Hotel and Tourism Entrepreneurs Association has plans to conduct promotional campaign from Betiya, Darbhanga, Motihari, Narkatiya, Patna in Bihar to Kolkata of Bengal. The association aims to conduct “Let’s Go Birgunj” promotional campaign in the region. <br /> <br /> Casino<br /> According to Pant, small scale hotels have also been benefitting from the casinos operated by big hotels in Birgunj. The customers of casinos have been using the services of small hotels for accommodation. Hotel Vishwa, Suraj and Diyalo Lords are operating casino business in Birgunj. <br /> <br /> Pant further informed that hotels in Birgunj have also profited from the 'no alcohol policy' of the Bihar government. People from Bihar regularly visit hotels in Birgunj for consuming alcohol after the ban.<br /> </p> ', 'published' => true, 'created' => '2019-05-12', 'modified' => '2019-05-12', 'keywords' => '', 'description' => '', 'sortorder' => '10417', 'image' => '20190512123044_Clipboard07-3.jpg', 'article_date' => '2019-05-12 00:00:00', 'homepage' => false, 'breaking_news' => false, 'main_news' => true, 'in_scroller' => false, 'user_id' => '20' ) ), (int) 2 => array( 'Article' => array( 'id' => '10665', 'article_category_id' => '1', 'title' => 'Internet and TV Service Providers Threaten to Shut Down Services', 'sub_title' => '', 'summary' => 'May 12: Television and Internet service providers’ have threatened to shut down television and Internet services across the country due to the hike in the rental fees by the Nepal Electricity Authority for using its poles.', 'content' => '<p> May 12: Television and Internet service providers’ have threatened to shut down television and Internet services across the country due to the hike in the rental fees by the Nepal Electricity Authority for using its poles.</p> <p> The state-owned Nepal Electricity Authority has asked the service providers to clear their dues by Tuesday, warning that it will cut off the wires from the poles if the y failed to clear the dues.

But now, the authority has decided to charge the service providers on the basis of the thickness and length of the fibres installed in its transmission poles. </p> <p> According to the new provision, the companies should pay Rs 300 per kilometer for the extension of their TV and Internet lines through 33 KV transmission line poles of the NEA. </p> <p> In January, the Internet Service Providers’ Association of Nepal (ISPAN) had expressed serious concerns regarding the NEA’s unrealistic and exorbitant hike in the fees it had been charging the Internet service providers (ISP) for using the NEA’s poles and fibres.</p> <p> Issuing a statement, ISPAN had said that the state-run utility hiked the fees more than 500 percent since the beginning of the current fiscal year.</p> <p> “We Internet service providers have been serving our customers across the country in an easy and acccessible way at affordable rates using the poles and fibres of the NEA,” said the statement, adding, “But lately, we are in great dilemma as the rates we have been charging to our customers are based on the old rate charged by the NEA.”</p> <p> ISPAN argued that the NEA’s decision would adversely affect the National Broadband Policy, which envisages providing Internet service at more affordable rates.</p> <p> As per the policy, ISPs had reached an understanding with the government to internally adjust the 13 percent communication service charge imposed by the Ministry of Communications and Information Technology in order to avoid increasing Internet charge. During the agreement, the government had complied with the ISP’s request that none of the government bodies would act in any way that would result in hike in the Internet charge, the statement said.</p> <p> </p> <p> </p> ', 'published' => true, 'created' => '2019-05-09', 'modified' => '2019-05-09', 'keywords' => '', 'description' => '', 'sortorder' => '10402', 'image' => '20190509012015_nea.jpg', 'article_date' => '2019-05-09 00:00:00', 'homepage' => false, 'breaking_news' => false, 'main_news' => true, 'in_scroller' => null, 'user_id' => '20' ) ), (int) 14 => array( 'Article' => array( 'id' => '10648', 'article_category_id' => '1', 'title' => 'Market Watch of May 8 ( Wednesday) ', 'sub_title' => '', 'summary' => 'Today market is negative including other market indices.', 'content' => '<p> <strong> Pic.

In the recent period, investment in the hotel sector in Birgunj has observed a tremendous growth. However, the hotel business here is booming not because of tourists but due to business meetings.<br /> <br /> Hari Pant, chairman of hotel and tourism entrepreneurs association of Birgunj, says hotels in Birgunj are sustaining their business because of the guests of business houses but not tourists. <br /> <br /> “The hotels so far have been operating their business depending on the guests of industries and their business activities. They now need to extend their service targeting tourists as well," he added.<br /> <br /> Diyalo Lords Plaza, a three-star hotel in Birgunj, was established with Rs 1 billion investment and is likely to receive a four-star status very soon. Anil Kumar Rungta, owner of Diyalo Lords Plaza, says he invested in the hotel believing Birgunj to become a tourist destination in future. <br /> <br /> Previously, VVIP guests travelling to Birgunj were to travel twenty six kilometers away to Hotel Ichhya, Simara in absence of posh hotels. But now Diyalo Lords Plaza is expected to make the stay of VVIP guests remarkable within the city.<br /> <br /> Hotel depended on industries<br /> According to Pant top ranking business entrepreneurs and auditors coming to Birgunj and nearby industrial areas are mainly the targeted customers of the hotels in Birgunj and the hotels are benefiting from the ongoing construction of new industries being established in Bara-Parsa industrial corridor. <br /> <br /> Risk<br /> Hotel entrepreneurs inform hotels in Birgunj have received more than Rs 20 billion investment. According to the entrepreneurs the hotel business in Birgunj will be at risk if they have to continue the business depending on the guest of the industrial sector.<br /> "We should work to find ways for brining tourists or else hotels won’t be able to sustain additional investment," Pant added. He further said that the hotels are already having tough competition for service charge. <br /> "In the hotel business we sell services rather than commodities which is why we are observing tight competition. In the last one year alone six new big hotels have opened here for," he added. <br /> <br /> Birgunj for marriages<br /> In recent time the number of people arriving Birgunj from India for marriage ceremony has increased. Due to the lack of hotels in Raxaul (the closest Indian border to Birgunj) most of the Indians come to Birgunj and conduct the marriage ceremony. Such events have become a good source of earning for the hotels which almost earn Rs 1 million per marriage. According to sources the hotels in Birgunj charge comparatively less than the hotels in major Indian cities . The Hotel and Tourism Entrepreneurs Association has plans to conduct promotional campaign from Betiya, Darbhanga, Motihari, Narkatiya, Patna in Bihar to Kolkata of Bengal. The association aims to conduct “Let’s Go Birgunj” promotional campaign in the region. <br /> <br /> Casino<br /> According to Pant, small scale hotels have also been benefitting from the casinos operated by big hotels in Birgunj. The customers of casinos have been using the services of small hotels for accommodation. Hotel Vishwa, Suraj and Diyalo Lords are operating casino business in Birgunj. <br /> <br /> Pant further informed that hotels in Birgunj have also profited from the 'no alcohol policy' of the Bihar government. People from Bihar regularly visit hotels in Birgunj for consuming alcohol after the ban.<br /> </p> ', 'published' => true, 'created' => '2019-05-12', 'modified' => '2019-05-12', 'keywords' => '', 'description' => '', 'sortorder' => '10417', 'image' => '20190512123044_Clipboard07-3.jpg', 'article_date' => '2019-05-12 00:00:00', 'homepage' => false, 'breaking_news' => false, 'main_news' => true, 'in_scroller' => false, 'user_id' => '20' ) ), (int) 2 => array( 'Article' => array( 'id' => '10665', 'article_category_id' => '1', 'title' => 'Internet and TV Service Providers Threaten to Shut Down Services', 'sub_title' => '', 'summary' => 'May 12: Television and Internet service providers’ have threatened to shut down television and Internet services across the country due to the hike in the rental fees by the Nepal Electricity Authority for using its poles.', 'content' => '<p> May 12: Television and Internet service providers’ have threatened to shut down television and Internet services across the country due to the hike in the rental fees by the Nepal Electricity Authority for using its poles.</p> <p> The state-owned Nepal Electricity Authority has asked the service providers to clear their dues by Tuesday, warning that it will cut off the wires from the poles if the y failed to clear the dues.

But now, the authority has decided to charge the service providers on the basis of the thickness and length of the fibres installed in its transmission poles. </p> <p> According to the new provision, the companies should pay Rs 300 per kilometer for the extension of their TV and Internet lines through 33 KV transmission line poles of the NEA. </p> <p> In January, the Internet Service Providers’ Association of Nepal (ISPAN) had expressed serious concerns regarding the NEA’s unrealistic and exorbitant hike in the fees it had been charging the Internet service providers (ISP) for using the NEA’s poles and fibres.</p> <p> Issuing a statement, ISPAN had said that the state-run utility hiked the fees more than 500 percent since the beginning of the current fiscal year.</p> <p> “We Internet service providers have been serving our customers across the country in an easy and acccessible way at affordable rates using the poles and fibres of the NEA,” said the statement, adding, “But lately, we are in great dilemma as the rates we have been charging to our customers are based on the old rate charged by the NEA.”</p> <p> ISPAN argued that the NEA’s decision would adversely affect the National Broadband Policy, which envisages providing Internet service at more affordable rates.</p> <p> As per the policy, ISPs had reached an understanding with the government to internally adjust the 13 percent communication service charge imposed by the Ministry of Communications and Information Technology in order to avoid increasing Internet charge. During the agreement, the government had complied with the ISP’s request that none of the government bodies would act in any way that would result in hike in the Internet charge, the statement said.</p> <p> </p> <p> </p> ', 'published' => true, 'created' => '2019-05-09', 'modified' => '2019-05-09', 'keywords' => '', 'description' => '', 'sortorder' => '10402', 'image' => '20190509012015_nea.jpg', 'article_date' => '2019-05-09 00:00:00', 'homepage' => false, 'breaking_news' => false, 'main_news' => true, 'in_scroller' => null, 'user_id' => '20' ) ), (int) 14 => array( 'Article' => array( 'id' => '10648', 'article_category_id' => '1', 'title' => 'Market Watch of May 8 ( Wednesday) ', 'sub_title' => '', 'summary' => 'Today market is negative including other market indices.', 'content' => '<p> <strong> Pic.

In the recent period, investment in the hotel sector in Birgunj has observed a tremendous growth. However, the hotel business here is booming not because of tourists but due to business meetings.<br /> <br /> Hari Pant, chairman of hotel and tourism entrepreneurs association of Birgunj, says hotels in Birgunj are sustaining their business because of the guests of business houses but not tourists. <br /> <br /> “The hotels so far have been operating their business depending on the guests of industries and their business activities. They now need to extend their service targeting tourists as well," he added.<br /> <br /> Diyalo Lords Plaza, a three-star hotel in Birgunj, was established with Rs 1 billion investment and is likely to receive a four-star status very soon. Anil Kumar Rungta, owner of Diyalo Lords Plaza, says he invested in the hotel believing Birgunj to become a tourist destination in future. <br /> <br /> Previously, VVIP guests travelling to Birgunj were to travel twenty six kilometers away to Hotel Ichhya, Simara in absence of posh hotels. But now Diyalo Lords Plaza is expected to make the stay of VVIP guests remarkable within the city.<br /> <br /> Hotel depended on industries<br /> According to Pant top ranking business entrepreneurs and auditors coming to Birgunj and nearby industrial areas are mainly the targeted customers of the hotels in Birgunj and the hotels are benefiting from the ongoing construction of new industries being established in Bara-Parsa industrial corridor. <br /> <br /> Risk<br /> Hotel entrepreneurs inform hotels in Birgunj have received more than Rs 20 billion investment. According to the entrepreneurs the hotel business in Birgunj will be at risk if they have to continue the business depending on the guest of the industrial sector.<br /> "We should work to find ways for brining tourists or else hotels won’t be able to sustain additional investment," Pant added. He further said that the hotels are already having tough competition for service charge. <br /> "In the hotel business we sell services rather than commodities which is why we are observing tight competition. In the last one year alone six new big hotels have opened here for," he added. <br /> <br /> Birgunj for marriages<br /> In recent time the number of people arriving Birgunj from India for marriage ceremony has increased. Due to the lack of hotels in Raxaul (the closest Indian border to Birgunj) most of the Indians come to Birgunj and conduct the marriage ceremony. Such events have become a good source of earning for the hotels which almost earn Rs 1 million per marriage. According to sources the hotels in Birgunj charge comparatively less than the hotels in major Indian cities . The Hotel and Tourism Entrepreneurs Association has plans to conduct promotional campaign from Betiya, Darbhanga, Motihari, Narkatiya, Patna in Bihar to Kolkata of Bengal. The association aims to conduct “Let’s Go Birgunj” promotional campaign in the region. <br /> <br /> Casino<br /> According to Pant, small scale hotels have also been benefitting from the casinos operated by big hotels in Birgunj. The customers of casinos have been using the services of small hotels for accommodation. Hotel Vishwa, Suraj and Diyalo Lords are operating casino business in Birgunj. <br /> <br /> Pant further informed that hotels in Birgunj have also profited from the 'no alcohol policy' of the Bihar government. People from Bihar regularly visit hotels in Birgunj for consuming alcohol after the ban.<br /> </p> ', 'published' => true, 'created' => '2019-05-12', 'modified' => '2019-05-12', 'keywords' => '', 'description' => '', 'sortorder' => '10417', 'image' => '20190512123044_Clipboard07-3.jpg', 'article_date' => '2019-05-12 00:00:00', 'homepage' => false, 'breaking_news' => false, 'main_news' => true, 'in_scroller' => false, 'user_id' => '20' ) ), (int) 2 => array( 'Article' => array( 'id' => '10665', 'article_category_id' => '1', 'title' => 'Internet and TV Service Providers Threaten to Shut Down Services', 'sub_title' => '', 'summary' => 'May 12: Television and Internet service providers’ have threatened to shut down television and Internet services across the country due to the hike in the rental fees by the Nepal Electricity Authority for using its poles.', 'content' => '<p> May 12: Television and Internet service providers’ have threatened to shut down television and Internet services across the country due to the hike in the rental fees by the Nepal Electricity Authority for using its poles.</p> <p> The state-owned Nepal Electricity Authority has asked the service providers to clear their dues by Tuesday, warning that it will cut off the wires from the poles if the y failed to clear the dues.

But now, the authority has decided to charge the service providers on the basis of the thickness and length of the fibres installed in its transmission poles. </p> <p> According to the new provision, the companies should pay Rs 300 per kilometer for the extension of their TV and Internet lines through 33 KV transmission line poles of the NEA. </p> <p> In January, the Internet Service Providers’ Association of Nepal (ISPAN) had expressed serious concerns regarding the NEA’s unrealistic and exorbitant hike in the fees it had been charging the Internet service providers (ISP) for using the NEA’s poles and fibres.</p> <p> Issuing a statement, ISPAN had said that the state-run utility hiked the fees more than 500 percent since the beginning of the current fiscal year.</p> <p> “We Internet service providers have been serving our customers across the country in an easy and acccessible way at affordable rates using the poles and fibres of the NEA,” said the statement, adding, “But lately, we are in great dilemma as the rates we have been charging to our customers are based on the old rate charged by the NEA.”</p> <p> ISPAN argued that the NEA’s decision would adversely affect the National Broadband Policy, which envisages providing Internet service at more affordable rates.</p> <p> As per the policy, ISPs had reached an understanding with the government to internally adjust the 13 percent communication service charge imposed by the Ministry of Communications and Information Technology in order to avoid increasing Internet charge. During the agreement, the government had complied with the ISP’s request that none of the government bodies would act in any way that would result in hike in the Internet charge, the statement said.</p> <p> </p> <p> </p> ', 'published' => true, 'created' => '2019-05-09', 'modified' => '2019-05-09', 'keywords' => '', 'description' => '', 'sortorder' => '10402', 'image' => '20190509012015_nea.jpg', 'article_date' => '2019-05-09 00:00:00', 'homepage' => false, 'breaking_news' => false, 'main_news' => true, 'in_scroller' => null, 'user_id' => '20' ) ), (int) 14 => array( 'Article' => array( 'id' => '10648', 'article_category_id' => '1', 'title' => 'Market Watch of May 8 ( Wednesday) ', 'sub_title' => '', 'summary' => 'Today market is negative including other market indices.', 'content' => '<p> <strong> Pic.

In the recent period, investment in the hotel sector in Birgunj has observed a tremendous growth. However, the hotel business here is booming not because of tourists but due to business meetings.<br /> <br /> Hari Pant, chairman of hotel and tourism entrepreneurs association of Birgunj, says hotels in Birgunj are sustaining their business because of the guests of business houses but not tourists. <br /> <br /> “The hotels so far have been operating their business depending on the guests of industries and their business activities. They now need to extend their service targeting tourists as well," he added.<br /> <br /> Diyalo Lords Plaza, a three-star hotel in Birgunj, was established with Rs 1 billion investment and is likely to receive a four-star status very soon. Anil Kumar Rungta, owner of Diyalo Lords Plaza, says he invested in the hotel believing Birgunj to become a tourist destination in future. <br /> <br /> Previously, VVIP guests travelling to Birgunj were to travel twenty six kilometers away to Hotel Ichhya, Simara in absence of posh hotels. But now Diyalo Lords Plaza is expected to make the stay of VVIP guests remarkable within the city.<br /> <br /> Hotel depended on industries<br /> According to Pant top ranking business entrepreneurs and auditors coming to Birgunj and nearby industrial areas are mainly the targeted customers of the hotels in Birgunj and the hotels are benefiting from the ongoing construction of new industries being established in Bara-Parsa industrial corridor. <br /> <br /> Risk<br /> Hotel entrepreneurs inform hotels in Birgunj have received more than Rs 20 billion investment. According to the entrepreneurs the hotel business in Birgunj will be at risk if they have to continue the business depending on the guest of the industrial sector.<br /> "We should work to find ways for brining tourists or else hotels won’t be able to sustain additional investment," Pant added. He further said that the hotels are already having tough competition for service charge. <br /> "In the hotel business we sell services rather than commodities which is why we are observing tight competition. In the last one year alone six new big hotels have opened here for," he added. <br /> <br /> Birgunj for marriages<br /> In recent time the number of people arriving Birgunj from India for marriage ceremony has increased. Due to the lack of hotels in Raxaul (the closest Indian border to Birgunj) most of the Indians come to Birgunj and conduct the marriage ceremony. Such events have become a good source of earning for the hotels which almost earn Rs 1 million per marriage. According to sources the hotels in Birgunj charge comparatively less than the hotels in major Indian cities . The Hotel and Tourism Entrepreneurs Association has plans to conduct promotional campaign from Betiya, Darbhanga, Motihari, Narkatiya, Patna in Bihar to Kolkata of Bengal. The association aims to conduct “Let’s Go Birgunj” promotional campaign in the region. <br /> <br /> Casino<br /> According to Pant, small scale hotels have also been benefitting from the casinos operated by big hotels in Birgunj. The customers of casinos have been using the services of small hotels for accommodation. Hotel Vishwa, Suraj and Diyalo Lords are operating casino business in Birgunj. <br /> <br /> Pant further informed that hotels in Birgunj have also profited from the 'no alcohol policy' of the Bihar government. People from Bihar regularly visit hotels in Birgunj for consuming alcohol after the ban.<br /> </p> ', 'published' => true, 'created' => '2019-05-12', 'modified' => '2019-05-12', 'keywords' => '', 'description' => '', 'sortorder' => '10417', 'image' => '20190512123044_Clipboard07-3.jpg', 'article_date' => '2019-05-12 00:00:00', 'homepage' => false, 'breaking_news' => false, 'main_news' => true, 'in_scroller' => false, 'user_id' => '20' ) ), (int) 2 => array( 'Article' => array( 'id' => '10665', 'article_category_id' => '1', 'title' => 'Internet and TV Service Providers Threaten to Shut Down Services', 'sub_title' => '', 'summary' => 'May 12: Television and Internet service providers’ have threatened to shut down television and Internet services across the country due to the hike in the rental fees by the Nepal Electricity Authority for using its poles.', 'content' => '<p> May 12: Television and Internet service providers’ have threatened to shut down television and Internet services across the country due to the hike in the rental fees by the Nepal Electricity Authority for using its poles.</p> <p> The state-owned Nepal Electricity Authority has asked the service providers to clear their dues by Tuesday, warning that it will cut off the wires from the poles if the y failed to clear the dues.

But now, the authority has decided to charge the service providers on the basis of the thickness and length of the fibres installed in its transmission poles. </p> <p> According to the new provision, the companies should pay Rs 300 per kilometer for the extension of their TV and Internet lines through 33 KV transmission line poles of the NEA. </p> <p> In January, the Internet Service Providers’ Association of Nepal (ISPAN) had expressed serious concerns regarding the NEA’s unrealistic and exorbitant hike in the fees it had been charging the Internet service providers (ISP) for using the NEA’s poles and fibres.</p> <p> Issuing a statement, ISPAN had said that the state-run utility hiked the fees more than 500 percent since the beginning of the current fiscal year.</p> <p> “We Internet service providers have been serving our customers across the country in an easy and acccessible way at affordable rates using the poles and fibres of the NEA,” said the statement, adding, “But lately, we are in great dilemma as the rates we have been charging to our customers are based on the old rate charged by the NEA.”</p> <p> ISPAN argued that the NEA’s decision would adversely affect the National Broadband Policy, which envisages providing Internet service at more affordable rates.</p> <p> As per the policy, ISPs had reached an understanding with the government to internally adjust the 13 percent communication service charge imposed by the Ministry of Communications and Information Technology in order to avoid increasing Internet charge. During the agreement, the government had complied with the ISP’s request that none of the government bodies would act in any way that would result in hike in the Internet charge, the statement said.</p> <p> </p> <p> </p> ', 'published' => true, 'created' => '2019-05-09', 'modified' => '2019-05-09', 'keywords' => '', 'description' => '', 'sortorder' => '10402', 'image' => '20190509012015_nea.jpg', 'article_date' => '2019-05-09 00:00:00', 'homepage' => false, 'breaking_news' => false, 'main_news' => true, 'in_scroller' => null, 'user_id' => '20' ) ), (int) 14 => array( 'Article' => array( 'id' => '10648', 'article_category_id' => '1', 'title' => 'Market Watch of May 8 ( Wednesday) ', 'sub_title' => '', 'summary' => 'Today market is negative including other market indices.', 'content' => '<p> <strong> Pic.
