Additional information

Nepal's 1984 National Population and Housing Census was a significant administrative undertaking for a country still heavily reliant on foreign technical assistance to conduct large-scale demographic surveys. This commemorative was issued in direct connection with that census effort, part of a broader pattern of Nepali commemoratives tied to UN-aligned development initiatives during Birendra's reign.
