Miss Nepal 2018 is a title that has 25 girls drooling over it, but, which one will finally wear the crown will only be determined on the night of the finale. The bar has been raised pretty high for these new finalists for the Miss Nepal 2018 contest. These girls will have some big shoes to fill, and it only means more hard work, and going through intensive preps. The girls have shown great enthusiasm so far, and have already been a part of the orientation.
Contestant number 19 Ashma Dhungana is one of the 25 delegates who is going to compete for the coveted national title.
21 and studying in the final semester of BBA from Kathmandu University, Ashma is an American Embassy Grant Recipient for promoting collaborative democracy in rural Nuwakot. But, that’s not all, she is also a Volunteer at Red Cross.
