News Summary:

Nepal Telecom and the Public Service Broadcasting Institution (PSBN/Nepal Television) signed a cooperation agreement on August 22, 2026, aiming to ensure more effective telecommunication services and reliable information and news services for the general public. This agreement followed a government-appointed investigation committee's report on August 6, 2026, which uncovered widespread irregularities in the procurement of equipment and services for Nepal Television, submitting its findings to the Ministry of Information and Communications. Earlier on April 1, 2026, the government mandated that all public notices and advertisements be published and broadcast exclusively through state-owned media outlets, a directive issued by the Office of the Prime Minister and Council of Ministers to ensure fiscal discipline and enhance transparency. Previously, on May 18, 2025, Minister for Communication and Information Technology Prithvi Subba Gurung emphasized that public service broadcasters, including Radio Nepal and Nepal Television, should keep the public well-informed by producing news and programs in favor of citizens rather than political parties or the government, highlighting the importance of prosperity and national unity.
