Kathmandu, Jan 22 :  Nepal Chamber of Commerce general secretary Surendra Bir Malakar has expressed concern at whatever adverse impact there has been on the tourism industry following suspension of Indian Airlines flights to Kathmandu in the wake of the Hijacking last month.

Free movement between the two countries has helped the tourism trade and air services had been making a further contribution, he said.
