Namaste. I recently visited Nepal, our neighbouring country, which I used to think had the same kind of traffic and Automotive market as we have here in India. However, I was wrong; there is a lot about Nepal which makes it different from India. I sat in conversation with Ankit and Saurav from @NepalDrives to discuss everything about it.
