It was a great day for Rotary and a great day for Nepal.
Since the formation of the
Rotary Club of
Kathmandu on 13 April, 1959, all Rotary Clubs in Nepal have
been a part of various districts in India.
For details of all previous districting, please refer to the
history of District 3291.
Almost exactly 50 years after Kathmandu was chartered, Nepal was
granted its own district number 3292 which became effective 1 July
2008.
In the 2008 year therefore, 50 year celebrations occurred for the
golden anniversary of RC Kathmandu, the golden anniversary of
Rotary's entry into Nepal and simultaneously, for the eventual
allocatin of a district solely to cater for the many clubs in Nepal.
At the time of this entry, there are 70 Rotary Clubs throughout
Nepal with total membership of over 2,000.
The first District Governor was Rtn Dr. Tika Man Vaidya, the Charter
President of Rotary Club of Patan West.
