Kathmandu, Sep 6
The Nepal Telecommunications Authority on Friday directed the country's internet and mobile service providers to lift the ban on TikTok, in line with a cabinet decision on the short-video app.
"The authority issues a directive to all the concerned Internet and mobile service providers to remove the restrictions against TikTok until further notice," read the directive.
On August 22, Nepal's cabinet decided to lift the ban on TikTok, which was imposed in November last year, news agency reported.
The cabinet while lifting the ban had asked TikTok to fulfil certain conditions while operating the app in Nepal within a period of three months. It asked TikTok to contribute to the promotion of tourism in Nepal, invest in making people aware of digital safety, upgrade the quality of public education, and be sensitive while using the language in the app.
