I would like to express my gratitude for all the blessings and good wishes I have received so far. Thank you all. Until we meet again."


Furthermore, it has come to light that the legal case involving Lamichhane, who faces allegations of raping a minor, has seen yet another postponement during a hearing on Thursday. The complaint against him was filed on September 6 last year, specifically accusing him of rape. Subsequently, he was apprehended on October 6, almost one month after the issuance of an arrest warrant.
