Civil Service Day is being observed across the country by organising various programmes today.
Although it has been already 60 years since the formation of civil service in Nepal, this Day has been formally started to be celebrated from Bhadau 22, 2062.
A government led by the then Prime Minister Tanka Prasad Acharya on Bhadau, 22, 2013, had introduced the Civil Service Act and Nepal formally started celebrating this Day from 2062 on this very day every year.
There are around 83,000 civil servants in the country. The Ministry of Federal Affairs and General Administration is organising various programmes today to celebrate the Day.
A morning rally is going to be organised this morning and some civil servants are going to be awarded on this occasion.
