Nepal Chautari is a Nepali radio program that began broadcasting in January 2007. It is a live topical show that analyzes Nepal's transitional issues and features guest speakers, political and civil society leaders, opinion-makers, and national planners.
The show serves as a radio media bridge between community figures determining the future of Nepal and Nepali citizens. Listeners calling into the show share opinions about issues as well as potential solutions to representative government officers, who are present in person at Antenna's Studio in Bakhundole, Lalitpur. Listeners can dial a toll-free number to voice their opinions on topics presented on the show.
Nepal Chautari is transmitted live through 58 FM Radio Stations across Nepal using the Ujyalo Satellite Channel of Communication Corner and CIN Channel.
The show was first aired in January 2007 and was broadcast every day for 50 minutes until June 2009, with USAID/Nepal supporting the program for the first 18 months. Since July 2009, it has been presented to its listeners in a modified format, being aired on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays every week from 8:10 am to 9:00 am. While the Friday and Sunday talk shows continue the earlier format, the Saturday version is a radio magazine that includes radio features and reports from across Nepal.
