Shutdown Of 22 Districts Of Terai Continues In Nepal
By KTM Metro Reporter
June 6, 2013: at the call of the Kamalari System Elimination Agitation Committee to shut down the 22 districts to protest the police’s brutality against the Kamalaris peacefully demonstrating for their cause, the 22 districts in terai remained closed today.
Thousands of people have been stranded on the highway and roads. The home ministry has deployed riot police in a large number for keeping the highway opened but they could not reach elsewhere on the highway. So, most of the highway remained closed despite the efforts made by the riot police to keep the highway opened.
Businesses of all people in the 22 districts came to standstill. Stores remained closed. Regular businesses of common folks were halted. Laborers could not go to work. Probably, some poor people have gone hungry because they neither could go to work nor stores were opened for buying foods.
Shutting down businesses of other people was unconstitutional and illegal but the government has forced the Kamalaris to resort to such illegal actions, as the riot police hunted them when they were demonstrating peacefully.
