  • Bhai Tika Feast: Sel Roti and Bhai Masala for Brothers Today

    Today is Bhai Tika, the final day of Tihar, and sisters across Nepal are marking it with a feast for their brothers. After the seven-colour tika and the makhamali garland, brothers are served sel roti, sweets and fruit, along with bhai masala, the gift of dry fruits and nuts.

    The festive plates cost more this year. Pistachios have climbed to around Rs 3,500 to Rs 3,600 a kilo in Kathmandu, up from about Rs 2,200 last year, as demand peaks for the festival. The official time for the tika today is 11:07 in the morning.

  • No sugar shortage for Tihar, say traders

    With Lakshmi Puja tonight, families across Nepal are busy making sweets and sel roti. Government agencies and traders say there is enough sugar, rice, pulses and cooking oil for the festival.

    The Salt Trading Corporation holds about 11,700 tonnes of sugar. Sugar sells at Rs 100 a kilo at 38 subsidised outlets across the country, and at about Rs 110 a kilo in the market. Gas for cooking, though, is still in short supply in some areas.

  • Kaag Tihar begins today with food for the crows

    Nepal is celebrating Kaag Tihar today, the first day of the five-day Tihar festival. Families place food on rooftops and in courtyards early in the morning for crows.

    The crow is regarded as the messenger of Yamraj, the god of death and justice. Homes also prepare festive food like sel roti and sweets, and special worship is being held today at Kageshwori temples in Kathmandu.
