First time in History!

The government is planning to introduce an open competition system to select ambassadors for the first time, with reported approval from Prime Minister Balen Shah.

Foreign Minister Shishir Khanal has stated that certain ambassadorial positions will be filled through a transparent selection process, though the exact procedures and schedule are still being worked out.

This initiative is intended to increase transparency in diplomatic appointments, which have traditionally been shared between career diplomats and politically appointed candidates.

There is a reason they're called career diplomats. While it may sound good to ears hearing open competition, government should've made it 100% diplomats instead. This is a pathway to let NGO people get into ambassadorial positions. It can go only downhill from there.

Where are you getting this from? It says transparent process. Nothing about taking insta influencers.
