Indefinite Curfew Continues in Nepal's Sunsari District After Communal Violence
An indefinite curfew has been imposed for the fourth day in Nepal's Sunsari district bordering India following communal violence between Hindu and Muslim communities. The clashes began during a religious procession dispute over loud music and flags, resulting in one death and over 20 injuries, including security personnel. Authorities have tightened security, prohibited public gatherings, and promised compensation while Prime Minister Balendra Shah convened the National Security Council to review the situation. The curfew remains until further notice to prevent further unrest.
