Kathmandu, Dec 16: Minister for Communications and Information Technology Rekha Sharma has said that the new generation should work for the preservation of Nepal’s custom, cultures and traditions.
Addressing the seventh general assembly of Madhyapaschim Literary Council here Saturday, Minister Sharma stated the new generation should remain proactive to end social ills and anomalies and to protect our cultures adding that change in the old political regime was possible due to active participation of youth.
“The way we united for regime change, we all are required to work with integrity for the strengthening of the system,” Minister Sharma added.
