He says, “We are starting this service completely with our own manpower very soon. We have succeeded in starting the kidney transplant service within 3 months of getting permission. Now the citizens of Karnali have to go to Kathmandu for kidney transplant.

We said that we will start the kidney transplant service on January 14th, but due to technical reasons, we have succeeded in doing the transplant on the 21st. This is the beginning of our historic work. Director Dr. Khadka says.
