Kathmandu, April 2

Lalitpur Metropolitan City says it will provide vehicle facility and security to veteran cultural expert Satya Mohan Joshi, a resident of the city.

The local government will hand over vehicle and security to him at a special function in Patandhoka today. Joshi is celebrating his 99th birthday next month.

The City says it has decided to support Joshi as he has been active in conservation and promotion of the city’s culture and heritage, but at the same time facing problems in daily movement.

The City Mayor Chiribabu Maharjan himself had made the proposal to support him.

All expenses incurred in using the facilities will be shouldered by the City.
