As Nepal sees a sharp rise in coronavirus infection cases amid the second wave, the American Government has put the Himalayan country on Level 4 Travel Advisory, the highest level issued by the Department of State.<\/p>\n
The current Level 4 Advisory asks US citizens to avoid traveling to Nepal or leave as soon as possible due to the ongoing health crisis in the country.<\/p>\n
Issuing the Advisory on Wednesday, the American Government has also advised US citizens in Nepal to exercise increased caution due to the potential for isolated political violence.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
\u201cPolitical demonstrations intended to be peaceful can sometimes escalate into violence and may be met with force by Nepali authorities,\u201d it said.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
The State Department also requested its citizens to read its COVID-19 page before planning any international travel.<\/p>\n
Earlier, on May 7, the US Government permitted the voluntary departure of family members of US government employees and non-emergency US government employees from Nepal.<\/p>\n
However, those who wish to leave Nepal are supposed to register with the US Embassy in Kathmandu and refer to the embassy\u2019s official website for flight information.<\/p>\n
