## What is Udanta?

Udanta brings the headlines from Nepal's news publishers into one feed. When several outlets cover the same story, Udanta groups them together — so you can see how a story is being reported rather than reading one version of it. Tap Full Coverage to read every outlet's take side by side.

CHOOSE YOUR LANGUAGE
Pick Nepali and you see Nepali language newspapers only. Pick English and you see English language ones only. The two are never mixed, and the whole app
including dates and numerals follows your choice.

TOPICS
Browse Top stories, or filter to Nepal, Politics, World, Business, Sports, Entertainment, Technology and Health.

LIVE RADIO
Eight Nepali FM stations, streamed from the broadcasters themselves. Playback carries on with the screen off or the app in your pocket, and the station appears on the lock screen and on a car head unit over Bluetooth. Set an alarm to wake to a station, or a sleep timer to have it stop by itself. Nepali television channels are on the same tab.

MARKET
• The NEPSE index drawn as a chart you can drag a finger across, and the whole board of 558 companies filtered by industry
• Interest rates across the nineteen commercial banks,  savings, fixed deposit terms, base rates, home and vehicle lending, with a loan calculator that works out the       
   monthly installment and every payment in the schedule
• Gold and silver rates from the Nepal Gold and Silver Dealer's Association, with the day's move
• Foreign exchange rates from Nepal Rastra Bank, with a built-in converter
• Daily wholesale vegetable prices from the Kalimati market board
• A directory of the numbers worth having: ambulance, police, fire, hospitals, utilities and government offices, tappable to dial

WEATHER
Current conditions and a seven day forecast for where you are, or for any major Nepali city.

NEPALI CALENDAR
A Bikram Sambat( Nepal official calendar) month view with the Gregorian date under each day, public holidays and the tithi, and today's date always in the header. Jump to any month back to 1900, and convert dates between Bikram Sambat and Gregorian in either direction.

ALSO
• Save stories to read later
• Search everything you have loaded
• Dark mode, and a layout that works offline from the last refresh

ABOUT THE CONTENT
Udanta shows the headline and a short summary from each publisher's own public feed, always credited to them. Tapping a story opens it on the publisher's site,
so they receive the visit. Udanta does not host, rewrite or republish articles. No account. No sign-in.
