International Labour Day Marked In Nepal

A Nepali worker wearing a wrap with ''May Day'' participates in a rally in Kathmandu, Nepal, on May 1, 2025, marking International Labour Day. Every year on May 1, this day is celebrated around the world, including in Nepal. The government declares a holiday to mark the day. International Labour Day is celebrated globally in remembrance of the labor movement that begins in 1886 in Chicago, USA, under the slogan ''Eight hours of work, eight hours of rest, and eight hours for personal life.''
