President avoids Bhaitika rituals

President Bidya Devi Bhandari did not offer Bhaitika to her brothers this year.

The Head-of-State refrained from the Bhaitika rituals and did not give ‘tika’ to her younger brothers this year as her parental family mourning the death of their close family member, the Office of the President stated.

Among the President’s three younger brothers, two are in the United States while one is in Nepal.
