Nepal has more internet users than its population

Surprisingly, the number of people having internet connection exceeds the whole population of Nepal.

According to the authorities, the number of individuals using the internet exceeds the population since officials calculate the number of subscriptions as the number of users, and one person may have subscribed to many internet connections.

According to the NTA’s most recent statistics, the country has 36 million and 41,000 Web users, respectively.

They use the internet on mobile phones 74.63% of the time and have fixed-line internet subscriptions 24.77% of the time.
