Nepal FM 91.8, a private sector radio station, resumed its transmission from Thursday after over 17 hours of suspension from Wednesday evening due to technical failure.

A statement issued by the FM station said that transmission resumed at 10: 12 a.m. The FM’s management claimed that the technical failure was a result of the government’s refusal to install new equipment.

The FM has been operating 24 hours since its establishment a year ago. Its programs are based on news and entertainment.
