Prohibition order in Kathmandu Valley from today [Tougher lockdown]
By Rabindra Dhungel, 19 august 2020. It has been decided to issue a one-week injunction in the Kathmandu Valley starting tonight. A joint meeting of the security committees of the three districts of Kathmandu, Lalitpur and Bhaktapur in the Kathmandu Valley on Tuesday decided to issue a restraining order with effect from 12 midnight. And this decision has been well received by civil society and many individuals.
Such a conclusion was reached at a joint meeting of the Chief District Officers (CDO) of Kathmandu, Bhaktapur and Lalitpur and the Chief of the Security Forces (Army / Police). However, its formal decision can only be made by the government on the recommendation of the central CCMC.
More than 100 corona infections are being added daily in the valley. Today alone, 205 new cases were found. That is why the administration has reached a decision of injunction.
