KATHMANDU: Tribeni Tole Sudhar Samaj has organized an awareness program in collaboration with Tribeni Youth Club and Metropolitan Police Sector, Katunje to prevent possible incidents of thefts and robberies in the community targeting the Dashain festival on Saturday.
Talking to Khabarhub, Chairman of Tribeni Tole Sudhar Samaj Ganesh Ghimire said locals should keep a round-the-clock vigil on criminal activities including robberies and thefts as they might occur during the festive seasons.
