Gulmi protests lifted up after 20 days

Protesters in Gulmi have changed the form of agitation ongoing in the district against the government's proposal to divide the hilly and Terai districts of state number 5. Organising a press conference in headquarters Tamghas today, the United Struggle Committee called off the indefinite strike that had been in place in the district for the last 20 days. The lifting of the strike has seen life gradually return to normal in Gulmi. The protest however is to continue in other ways. The Struggle Committee has announced different protest programmes scheduled for duration until December 25. This includes holding of rallies, demonstrations, and gatherings.
