The government will not give work permits to Nepalis to go to war-torn Russia and Ukraine. The Ministry of Labor and Employment issued a notification on Friday and informed that it has decided to postpone the granting of labor approval or re-labor approval.
According to the ministry, it has been decided to suspend the work permit, individual and institutional labor permit for Nepali workers going to Russia and Ukraine until another arrangement is made, considering the humanitarian risk that can be created by participating in the warring country’s army while giving the work permit.
