The Front cadres enforced the shutdown of marketplaces in Saptari’s district headquarters of Rajbiraj including Bhardaha, Kanchanpur, Rupani and Kalyanpur bazaars along the East-West Highway. On Monday, police fired at the UDMF cadres who were attempting to disrupt the Mechi – Mahakali National Campaign of CPN (UML) killing three and injuring 24 others.
