BARDIBAS, Dec 29: Sugarcane producers of Mahottari district, who have been on agitation demanding the rise of price to their products, have padlocked Everest Sugar Mill in Ramnagar of the district.



Day-to-day administrative works of the Mill have also been completely halted after the sugarcane farmers, who have come up with struggle for the past one week, locked out the main gate of the Mill.[break]



They were compelled to launch agitation since the Mill and government did not take any initiative to adjust the price of sugarcane, said Chairperson of Sugarcane Producers Farmers Association, Mahottari, Naresh Singh Kushwaha.



Demanding the price of sugarcane per quintal be 501, the agitating farmers warned to launch strong stir if the government and Mill would not take any step for price adjustment.
