Nepal: The government has begun preparations to resume operations at the state-owned Udayapur Cement Industry, starting by renewing its licence to extract limestone. The licence had been cancelled in September 2024 during the previous government’s tenure. It was also announced that the Ministry of Finance will provide US$49,000 in outstanding debt that Udayapur Cement Industry owes to the Department of Mines and Geology. It is now preparing to appoint a general manager and operate the plant at its full capacity of 800t/day.
