Locals in Sundharighat now with the help of several opposition parties are enforcing Lalitpur bandh second day in a row for a 3 day long bandh (strike) program to protest the temporary settlements of Thapathali squatters in Sundharighat, Malpokhari. Locals have been arguing that the relocation of the squatters in their area will have negative impact on the environment and the beauty of their inhabitant. They have been pressurizing Government to stop constructing temporary huts in Malpokhari area, Sundarighat.
Yesterday, Police had barred people from going towards Pulchowk from Sajha petrol Pump as protesters had gathered in Pulchowk, Dhobighat area. A motorbike was vandalised very early in the morning yesterday whereas several other vehicles were attacked. 45 protesters were captured by Police from several areas of Lalitpur..
Furious Locals asserted that they will continue their protest until government backs down their decision.
Earlier negotiation between Government and struggle committee ended inconclusively for the settlement issue.
