Organisers

Kathmandu Jaycees, established in 1970, organized the first Miss Nepal Beauty Pageant in 1994, under the Chairmanship of the then president of Kathmandu Jaycees Sen. Gopal Sundar Lal Kakshapati and Project Committee Chairman Jc. Rupesh Pradhan.

Till then, Nepal remained unrepresented in the international beauty pageants. In 1995, to give the Miss Nepal pageant a more professional approach, senior members of Kathmandu Jaycees who was involved in organizing first Miss Nepal Pageant established The Hidden Treasure, which now annually organizes Miss Nepal Pageants. Some of the revenue generated from Miss Nepal Pageants has been used in the various community development projects of JCI Kathmandu-Nepal.
