Abhishesh, You don't need a passport to schedule an interview appointment date. Just fill out DS 160 n send confirmation page along your passport copy ( in case if needed but they don't ask for it) to your friend or family member to get interview date scheduled for you. P.S. I reached Nepal on Jan 22 n I had an interview on Jan 24, 2014. Good luck

This is my experience:
got the online DS-160 from US itself.
Went to Nepal - paid the required fees and got the date. ( within 2-3 days)
Appeared for the interview ( stand in H1B line :-) ).
Interviewer :
Where do you work ?
Whats your day to day responsibility?
Whats your salary?
Are you single ?
How long are you going to be here ?
Thats it. It was quite simple and straight.
Suggestion: Once you get your H1B stamping the other day, please get a Department of Labor approval letter. Its mandatory otherwise you will have problem while returning back to USA.
Process/Suggestion:
FInd Departtment of Labor office (बैदेशिक रोजगार प्रमांड पत्र). Its nearby tin kuney, Kathmandu.
Getting Department of labor approval is a tedious and slow processing task. Dont expect too much. However, be patient. Dont loose your control. There will be a volunteer booth inside the office premises. Ask as many question as you have there itself.
There will be broker/dalal who are willing to help you expedite your process from the moment you park your car/bike.
Its better if you know someone or do it yourself or get help from dalals.
I did it on my own and it took around 5-6 hours. #shithappens
Cost of the whole process: Insurance, fees ~ 3000 ( not quite sure about the fees. Please have enough money

I suppose it was next business day.
Holding passport for 2 weeks is nuisance (unless its true)
