- Nepal Faces Internet Outages Over Payment Dispute with Indian Firms | Vantage with Palki Sharma
Nepal has been facing widespread internet outages due to payments owed to Indian companies, affecting millions of people. Broadband providers owe more than 20 million dollars to vendors in India but they have not been able to transfer the money. Nepal's government has refused to give the necessary approval to transfer the funds out of the country, saying that the internet providers must first pay outstanding taxes - a dispute that dates back years. Countering this claim, private internet providers say that the legal framework governing their businesses exempts them from those taxes. As per a report released by the Nepal Telecommunication Authority last year, Nepal has over 10 million subscribers to private internet companies.

Bruh! As a nepali this wasn't even governmental issue. Its just that Nepali private isp wasn't able to pay to indian isp due to foriegn exchange glitch. It was fixed within 5-6 hour and payment was transferred. And also internet wasn't cut off. It was just slow.
oh, alright. Okay
Hah ok 😐
another exaggerated news!
If Plan A can't or doesn't work, I think Nepal should move to Plan B. I'm sure all Nepali knows what is Plan B. Every country should has Plan B in case Plan A can't or doesn't work.
It was not a glitch. Its a complicated issue, including taxes.
Lots of fake news in comment. Real Nepali here. Our private ISPs haven't paid tax to the government. They have formed an alliance (a literal cartel) to fight the government and not to pay tax. Billions of rupees are not being paid to the government by these criminals and their organization. So the government hasn't approved them to convert Rupees to USD to pay for the Internet they are bringing from Indian companies like Airtel and TATA. Hence they are unable to pay to Indian companies and that is why the Indian companies have cut the Internet. Real culprits are our privately owned ISPs. Don't believe anything else regarding this issue.
Acha ok 🙏 got it. 🇮🇳
And most Nepalese freeloaders are blaming India for this hahaha ,maybe you are a madhesi .
Hope they make timely payments that's a huge amount.
As per Kathmandu post, services have been restored when nepal pvt operators promised to act responsibly
We have Chinese internet don't worry... Meanwhile indian are beggers in Nepal..
Those who are saying china will come
So what they want free internet 🛜 from india ? Free 😮
They need khujliwal 😂😂😂
So basically Nepal is not willing to pay for India internet services, which gives access to internet almost for nothing (₹15) and now nepal isn't willing to pay even that money and now blaming India? Go ask Chinese internet you'll get for just ₹31 (almost double the price of India) , idk wtf were u even taking while typing this comment.
@@Benzene-xw7oq bro government has nothing to do, the way miss Palki presents the news makes it sound like Nepali gov didn't pay but in fact it's about private broadbands companies that didn't pay to Indian private isp.
@@Benzene-xw7oqdon't believe propoganda. Isp in nepal have not paid government tax so government has stopped remit money to india for the payment of bill.
@@0davidmillol!nepal govt is issuing new 100 Nepali rupee note in which they will show disputed india territory as their territory
I can predict that the bots and India bashers are already going berserk in the comments section! Just like the finger pointing done when India recently started USING IT'S SHARE OF WATER OF THE INDUS WATER TREATY, this story too has nothing to do with Geo-politics and all to do with NON-PAYMENT TO A SERVICE PROVIDER! As if service providers are supposed to operate charitably!
But many Nepalese are blaming India for not giving them internet for free 🤷🏻♂️
Nepal has been paying 240% custom tax to India for vehicles please let this stop and it's painful 85% people are originally from India who've been immigrants, we should act as real good neighbours but why India is still looting it's own good neighbour well Britisher already left India please Indian government think of it positively don't suck our bloods ,we need eachother and together we'll be better!🙏
@@purnimasubba5418import custom tax is applied on imported cars is by your own Nepali govt. Lol u even under import export ? 😂 the Indian govt. Earn tax already after sell in India ! And also on export the sell price in India (which already include Indian tax ) that price get 240 % custom duty by your govt.😂 just to save ur own forex reserves
20 million dollars
Governments should sort it out
Government has nothing to do, this is a B2B payment.
@@user-bs2cd9od1j Lol. You know that, In Nepal nobody is allowed to pay in dollars without governments approval. The amount is huge. Its problem with the government. They are not issuing the permission to pay in dollars.
@@atheist215How to make Nepalese freedom disappear for the low, low price of 20 million dollars.
@@judewarner1536 LOL. Dude first go & check the real news first haha. There were & are many ISP's who's Internet is & was working fine in Nepal. Its just of those ISP's whose payment is halted as those ISP's haven't paid the rental fees of electricity poles that they use of NEA of Gov of Nepal, that's why their International Payment is in Halt by Government until they pay the remaining fees to Government.
Nepalese want everything for free .
You pay for services nothing is free
Nepali don't want to pay ,they are saying china will feeed them for free 😂😂 .They don't know how Chinese thermal power plant stopped power in Pakistan after payment was delayed.
@@pritsingh9766 If you don't know anything then don't speak about it internet was slow not entirely cutdown and payment was denied by government because isp have not payed certain tax to government
Now China will give them internet😂😂😂..Nepal is such a country which switches like pendulam
Length of pendulum = pie^2/g 😮
Pendulums don't switch, they swing! There is major flaw in your argument! 😂
Yeah they switched by issuing new 100 rupee note ,in which they will show disputed india territory as their own
Every country should have Plan B in case Plan A can't or doesn't work. Nepal really needs Plan B to secure herself.
Nepal has Internet from China too. Infact it was the Chinese Internet that was working via Nepal Telecom.
Still majority of bandwidth comes from Indian provider and we pay that in US dollar.
As an Indian love Nepal a lot, after all it's our Dhevbhoomi!
But felt odd of how Nepalese in comments section are demanding freebies (seems it doesn't matter who provides - India or China) without any embarrassment.
Better be self-sufficient guys and make your economy strong, instead of depending on freebies and debt.
Learn something from current situation of Srilanka and Pakistan.
Why do you Iove these shamIess ppl? They have always betrayed us ,they helped British, they are now helping Chinese and now they want India to give them internet for free ,maybe wake up and stop loving these kind of people, they will even seII Hinduism for Chinese money.
Namaskar, miss palki...

Why india give free internet 🛜

Look at these comments; You say Nepali, Indian, Pakistani, Bangali but infact it is us !! We south asian we are always tend to put oneself first that is shit 💩 Not all but majority influence dominant that region's identity
Don't care about mousIems or your "south asians" but Nepalese asking India to give them internet for free shouldn't be justified
Nepal and Pakistan has connection issue 😂😂😂😂
Yes,
They are your friend only till the time you keep on offering things for free, the moment you say no, they're behaving totally opposite.
I've spent over a decade in Nepal so I'm well aware of their mentality.
They don’t even think of their family or children if they get little benefit.
Bro we are not Indians who Beg, leaving parents may be in Indian culture not ours. You taking about free ask your government how much did your government took free money from Europe and US. Losers Crying in comment, and Indian beggars coming to nepal is permanent
After living so many years in Nepal, still talking negative about Nepalese 👏👏 sick indian mentality. You are talking about free offering lol 😂 India earns billions from Nepal every year by exporting goods. If Nepal stops importing from India, half of india business will die 😂 even the water that indian people drink comes from the Himalayas of Nepal 😂
Nothing comes free in this world but the world is becoming weird
Thank you mam ❤
Nepal thinks they're entitled to special treatment from India just because they're Hindu dominant country.
Kuch bhi bakwass kar rahe ho.
It's a simple payment issue, there is absolutely no need to do politics over it.
@@arandomyoutubewatcher4308 not so simple
Ive come across many Nepalis who work and study in India, yet they'll talk sh!t about India as though they're special and entitled to be treated in a certain way.
@@arandomyoutubewatcher4308 obviously they do like. Being an Indian I have seen this. Janakpur Sita ji unke desh me hi hena. Isliye unko lagta he special treatment chahiye
True@@bigbossnaga7831
They will sell Hinduism if you pay them right. Look how they are crying in the comments just because an Indian company asked them to pay the bills 🤷🏻♂️
Don't believe in comments. They might be anyone from anywhere who wants an issue in between Nepal and India. They might be from Pakistan: china:Bangladesh: qatar:etc
Thier and me in same place ...hope get correct place to them .....not at USJ 21.....
Thanks for the update
But it's a private issue 😮it's not a government issue
Nepal is like 2nd home for Indians, We should maintain good relationship with Nepal but I don't know if Nepal govt. wants that, there are some political factions which wanna garner votes by being Anti-India.
Nepal is even adding their new map on their currency..which contain some(very little)area of India as well. Both countries are sorting this issue out at governmental level, there was no need to take such undiplomatic step.
Anyways, I do hope Nepal & India ties get strong but it won't be easy. China has already penetrated deep into Nepal's media & Political ecosystem. China also has money 💰 & motive to worsen ties between both countries.
Ah.. well..we'll see how things goes.
Once this thing i s over, Nepal should get help from India.
Pappu will solve this problem within minutes if he become Prime Minister.
Shows how dependent Nepalese are on India .
why in your channel getting low sound volume. it's very difficult to listen what your saying... increase freaquency

Exactly,
They deserve to be with China.
Not merge but cooperate 🤝🤝🤝. Nepal is a sovereign & independent country, so can't merge with China. Cooperate 🤝🤝🤝 is the best option. Nepal really needs Plan B in case Plan A can't & doesn't work.
They should they loose freedom but Nepal will develop not sure about nepalese
WHEN YOU PUT AN HEADLINE MAKE SURE THE STORY IS ONLY RELATED TO THAT; STOP WASTING MY TIME
Nepali should start an " India out " campaign.

Nothing wrong with Nepali people. It is Chinese money that works like in Maldeeve, Srilanka, Nepal... China can afford to spend on colossal bribing... China is desperate to create a war-like situation between India and Nepal ... it sees a possibility that India Nepal may become together in future so there must be enmity
Why were we giving internet access to them for free?
Free? lol 😂 The internet speed in Nepal is better than in India because people in Nepal pay more for internet than most of what indians can afford. India earns billions of dollars every year by exporting goods to Nepal. Nothing is for free 😂. Educate yourself. 100 rupees per month ka internet use karte ho aur badi baat karte ho 😂
@@johnchettri8967 Are you actually a real Nepali? There are chynese bots filled in the comments section trying to make Indians and Nepalis fight each other.
@@Kryptonite-kb3lgHe's a CCP/Pak bot. They have a superiority complex.

Thats why oné wise person said once, beggars can't be choosers, nothing is free nepal now start paying for everything , nepal is ruining relationship with INDIA, and now joined china, this will happen, never forget wat happened to maldives, they were begging in front of INDIA
India should not talk about relation, Nepal and India relation was good till 2014, But when India Blocked border in 2015 for 6 months When massive earthquake hits Nepal, Nepal was Broke Economically and Emotionally. Petrol prices reached 250/L which was 96 and Cylinder reached 2000 I still remember how difficult it was to get petrol cylinder and groceries at that time China helped Nepal.

@@HarshilHarshil-wo7eo _"In the cost of half land of nepal"_
So China should take half of India that was owed to them since the Ambanis defaulted on THREE major Chinese banks that loaned them hundreds of millions that they have yet paid a penny back, plus all the unicorn investments like Zomato while India effing up their PayTM investment then blames China in the end, etc etc???
So tell me, WHAT 'lands' has China took from anyone so far aside form your constant loser Indian bs???
Landlocked Nepal will always remember the malicious blockade imposed by India, which began on 23 September 2015 and lasted about six months, which was an economic and humanitarian crisis that severely affected Nepal and its economy
It was madheshis, a seperatist nation group in nepal who do not share nepali culture...read news outside so called nepali media...
@@DarkPhychicthat's a chinese bot, look at its comment history.
Indian Congress assassinated our Royal Family with the help of the FBI, the Modi government sealed off our vast borders with India because we changed our constitution right after the 2015 earthquakes in fact for months like barbarians, the Indian government and Indian media personalities in general treat us like we are less than them and a lot of Indian commentators here are acting the same way. And we have a very respect oriented interpretation of Sanskrit in the form of Nepalese. Any Nepalese, Honest Indian or tourist will tell you the difference between the vibe of India and Nepal. You guys might be rich now because of your stable government where we're poor because of ours but your immorality and lack of humility of your leaders will be your country's source of shame for India. Also महाराज भरत was born in Nepal. And apologies to any Indians who are aware of GODI MEDIA. This wasn't directed towards you. सत्य नेवा जयते । जय श्रीमान नारायण ।
