Nepal Telecom (NTC) Provincial Directorate Office, Pokhara, has requested everyone concerned to return/not use stolen recharge cards that were taken during the Gen Z protests. In a notice, the office shared that over 70,000 of its recharge cards have been taken away from the building in Mahendrapul, Pokhara, and shared their serial numbers to help retrieve them.

The incident took place during the Gen Z protests on 2082-05-24 in which the state telco’s building was partially vandalized. And as it happened, some people chanced on the occasion and looted recharge cards. The company has requested that those who have these recharge cards not use them and instead turn them in at their nearby office or a police station.

We suggest that if you have possession of these recharge cards, you should submit them to the NT office or police station. Even if they are used, NT will block their use in the balance, as they were taken away during the looting. So, they are sort of useless.

Therefore, we urge those in possession of these recharge cards to return them as soon as possible and help the national telco company, and also avoid possible charges.
