The winter is almost over in Nepal. So, there should be less demand for fuel now. That is why, the news of impending fuel crisis in Nepalese capital made me surprised.

Nepal is a poor country and cannot afford to maintain a healthy reserve of oil. Instead, it imports its oil from neighboring India. There is political unrest in southern plains region. Nepal is finding difficult to ensure smooth supply flow of oil being brought to the capital city. 

According to an AFP report, there is hardly any reserve of fuel in the capital city and many people are worried now.

Let us hope for the best. There has been protest for fuel in the past in Nepal.
