KATHMANDU, Dec 17: Prime Minister Sushila Karki has said the government will not tolerate any activities that disrupt peace, undermine law and order, or promote anarchy and criminal behavior.



Speaking at a programme organized by Lalitpur Metropolitan City on the occasion of its 107th anniversary on Wednesday, Prime Minister Karki said the government remains vigilant to ensure that no form of disorder is allowed to take root in society. She also called on communities to cooperate in resisting such activities.


“I want to make it clear that no kind of anarchy should be allowed in society. The security agencies are capable and active in controlling activities that disturb peace or attempt to take the law into one’s own hands,” she said. “The role of the community is equally important in resisting such negative elements. Let us work together on this.”
