Kathmandu, Apr. 20
The Computer Association of Nepal (CAN)
Federation has stalled its flagship programme CAN Info-tech, the largest
information technology exhibition in the country.
Issuing a press statement on Monday, it
informed that the IT show has been postponed until further notice owing to the
increasing COVID-19 contagion.
Although the exhibition was generally used
to be organised during winter in January/February, the CAN Federation had
postponed it to May this year hoping that the pandemic would be in control by
then and the programme would be organised conveniently.
“Considering the recent decision of the
government, direction of the COVID-19 Crisis Management Centre, and rapid
expansion of the pandemic, the Central Working Committee of the organisation on
18 April decided to halt the programme for now,” said CAN in a statement on
Monday.
The event was slated for 12-16 May this
year.
