| Bhoto Jatra Nepal
PM to observe last day of Machindranath Jatra today
Kantipur Report
KATHMANDU, July 8 - Prime Minister Girija Prasad Koirala is attending the final day of the traditional Rato Machindranath Jatra (procession) which concludes Sunday.
This jatra, the longest one in the country—will conclude today after the traditional bhoto (a piece of clothing) is displayed at Jawlakhel at 5:30 this evening.
Breaking the 238-year-old tradition of the bhoto being displayed by the rulers of the Shah dynasty, PM Koirala, as the acting head of state, will participate in the jatra this evening. Earlier, the king used to be the chief guest at the concluding ceremonies of the jatra.
