Govt, loan-sharking victims reach nine-point deal, protest suspended
The nine-day protest against loan sharking has been suspended after the government and representatives of loan-sharking victims reached a nine-point agreement on Friday. The "Justice March" on foot, which began from Tritiyagachhi in Janakpur on July 9, had reached Nijgadh in Bara, where an initial understanding was reached with Home Minister Sudan Gurung on July 16 to form formal negotiating teams in Kathmandu.
