In the wake of growing shortage of vegetables, rice and milk in the capital owing to Maoist called indefinite strike, the government has decided to ensure smooth supply of daily consumable items in Kathmandu by deploying additional security personnel.
A meeting of the cabinet held Friday took this decision to ease the supply of daily consumable and other essential items hard hit by the obstruction in transportation due to the Maoist strike.
Informing about the latest decision of the cabinet, Minister for Information and Communication and government spokesperson Shanker Pokharel said that the government took the decision acting on complains that the shortage seen in the market will become severe if nothing is done in this regard.
And as the shops, grocery stores, restaurants remain closed during the day time for about a week now due to the Maoist called strike, Minister Pokharel said that the government has decided to give full security to those who wish to open their shops during the bandh time.
