MAHOTTARI: District Administration Office, Mahottari has imposed a prohibitory order in the district headquarters Jaleshwor and in ward no. 3 and 5 of Mahottari rural municipality.

The injunction has been imposed for five days in the aforesaid areas effective from Friday 11 pm after cases of coronavirus spiked.

A meeting of the COVID-19 Prevention and Control District Committee, Mahottari took a decision to this effect.
