For the first time, the federation is going to hold a general convention and industrial exhibition to promote industry, and preparations for it have been completed, informed the federation’s coordinator Bhagirath Sapkota.
The federation is holding its third national general convention on Chaitra 8 and 9.

Coordinator Sapkota also informed that the convention is being held with the aim of working for the benefit of industrialists and businessmen by creating an industrial environment in the country in the current difficult situation.
According to Sapkota, the federation is going to hold a general convention with elections at the Karki Banquet Hall in Babarmahal with the participation of about 3,000 industrialists and businessmen from all over the country.
Similarly, the federation is going to organize an industrial exhibition to market the products produced by small, medium and large industries in the country, informed the coordinator of the federation, Bhagirath Sapkota. ‘Due to the prolonged economic recession, the morale of industrialists and businessmen is currently declining,’ he said, ‘an industrial exhibition is being organized to create an industrial environment and stimulate economic activity in the country.’
The federation will invite industrialists from all over the country to the convention and exhibit the products they produce. He also informed that the venue will be made a gathering place for producers and buyers. More than 3,000 industrialists and businessmen from all over the country are expected to visit the exhibition.
The exhibition will feature products produced by small and medium farmers from East Mechi to West Mahakali, said Gopal Khanal, coordinator of the fair subcommittee. “We are setting up about 100 stalls at the fair, ranging from small, medium and large, from home-made to large,” he said, “where everything from jimbu, yarcha, silajit to eastern chhurpi, cardamom to tea and coffee found in Karnali will be on display.”
