KATHMANDU: The ban on the social media site TikTok is presently being considered by the Nepali government. Talks about possibly lifting the ban are taking place at the Prime Minister's Secretariat.
There is strong public support for lifting the ban on TikTok, despite persistent concerns about the platform's content and regulations, according to secretariat sources. In the event that the prohibition is lifted, the government is investigating how to effectively control the site.
On November 12, 2023, the administration of Prime Minister Pushpa Kamal Dahal imposed the first TikTok ban. The present conversations seek to address the platform's regulatory issues as well as public concerns.
