KATHMANDU, Feb 24: The price of gold jumped by Rs 2,500 per tola (11.663 grams) in the domestic market on Thursday due to a soaring price in the international market backed by rising tension between Russia and Ukraine.

The international media reports that the gold price has risen about eight percent since the beginning of February after the Russia-Ukraine crisis walloped. As gold is a safe-haven asset along with the USD, investors’ attraction to the yellow metal has led to its soaring price, reads a news report by Reuters.
