Nepali national killed in Indian border security force firing
Kathmandu - ArabToday
A Nepali national was killed when the Indian border security forces opened fire into a crowd at Anandabazar town along the Nepal-India border on Thursday afternoon, following a scuffle over building a culvert over a local river, government officials said.
Govinda Gautam of Nepal was killed after he sustained bullet fired by the Indian border security forces following the dispute, Chief District Officer of Kanchanpur District Manohar Prasad Khanal told local media.
Khanal said that local Nepali people had resorted to a demonstration since 12 pm Thursday after Indian authorities objected to the construction of a culvert in the locality claiming that was the no man's land, the Himalayan Times Online said in its latest report.
The construction of the culvert over the river was started on Wednesday after an agreement was reached following a dispute that ran for over a month, media reports said.
The government of Nepal has deployed Nepal Police and Armed Police Force to take the situation under control.
There is no response yet from the Indian side regarding the incident so far.
