Madhesh gradually returns to normal after recent tensions



JANAKPURDHAM: Normal activity is gradually resuming in the restive Madhesh Province.

The province had remained tense since Thursday following the death of Ganesh Yadav in Golbazar, Siraha. After a written agreement was reached between Home Minister Sudan Gurung and the victim’s family on Friday, the situation has begun returning to normal.

The curfew and prohibitory orders imposed by local administrations in parts of Dhanusha, Siraha, and Saptari have been lifted. Public transport has resumed, and markets in the affected areas have reopened.

Local resident Binod Sah said transport services had been restored and daily life was gradually returning to normal. The district administrations concerned have issued notices urging the public not to believe rumors and to maintain social harmony.
