Namaste 🙏
I hope you do not mind this use of the list, but I am looking for advice on obtaining a research visa in Nepal. 

I am working with a PhD student (from the UK) who is currently in Kathmandu (on a tourist visa) and they are trying to obtain a research visa through the Centre for International Relations (CIR) at TU. However, the CIR has apparently been closed for some time (I think due to strikes) and the student is having no luck.  

I just wondered if anyone on this list might have any advice or ideas on this?

We really appreciate your help, many thanks indeed,

Sam
