They are using the western characterset iso-8859-1 (ISO latin 1) as the character encoding with a specific font. Due to this the page doesn't render properly if you don't have the font (looking at the source a font family called nepfont installed.

Using a Western characterset instead of Unicode here is a bad idea. They should have used Unicode as the character encoding for their data. Most probably they are using a database which doesn't have a NLS (national language support).

Cheers

nepfont is not the real font, it is just the class in their CSS file.

.nepfont {
font-family: preeti, Kantipur, Kanchan, Himalli;
font-size: 20px;
}

Get any font mentioned above and you can read the Nepali text there.
