Kathmandu, August 31
The government of Nepal says it wants to hold another round of talks with Bhutan in its fresh bid to solve decades-long Bhutanese refugee problem.
Kathmandu says it is waiting for a new government to get elected in Thimpu to launch the fresh bid.
Minister for Foreign Affairs Pradeep Kumar Gyawali says Prime Minister KP Sharma Oli has told the chief of Bhutanese interim government that he is waiting for the new government to hold a discussion on some significant issues.
Oli and the Chief Advisor to the Bhutanese government, Dasho Tshering Wangchuk, had held a bilateral meeting on the sidelines of BIMSTEC summit in Kathmandu.
Some thousands of Bhutanese refugees are living in Nepal for nearly three decades. Most of them have migrated to various American and European countries.
