Furthermore, former King Gyanendra also thanked the international community for their help to Nepal to fight against the COVID-19 pandemic. He also urged everyone to stay safe, alert, and healthy. He also wished for the speedy recovery of the infected patients who are undergoing treatment and prayed for the eternal peace of the departed souls.

“May Lord Pashupatinath provide strength to the families affected by the pandemic. Jaya Nepal,” former King Gyanendra says in the video message.
