Nepalese urge higher currency limit for Indians to boost tourism
A prominent Nepali business organisation on Sunday urged the government to allow Indian tourists arriving via land route to carry up to the equivalent of USD 5,000 in Indian rupees, an increase from the current limit of Rs 25,000, to boost tourism in the country.
USD 5,000 equates to approximately Rs 4,25,000.
