If true, this is sheer stupidity in part of Nepal government. Just because someone gets asylum in another country, that person does not cease becoming the citizen of the country of origin. This is a simple fact, isn't it? By not providing the passport to these folks, Nepal government is either unilaterally revoking their citizenship, which it cannot do as per UN convention it has signed against statelessness; or it is creating two classes of citizens, one entitled to the passport and the other not. What kind of monkeys are running the country these days?
