Nepal Health Professional Council (NHPC) has published a notice announcing the postponement of licensing exam of all certificate, undergraduate, and graduate levels that had been scheduled for Ashadh 19, 2078 (July 3, 2021).
The decision was made based on the recommendation of the Examination Committee. As per the committee, it is not possible for examinees to travel to the capital owing to a country-wide lockdown in effect.
Nepal has been in lockdown since Baishakh 16, 2078 (April 29, 2021) as the second wave of COVID-19 rapidly spread across the country claiming many lives and instigating fear in the process.
