It may be noted that the local administration has enforced a curfew since 8:00 pm on Friday night to stop the situation from going out of control. The local market, transportation and education institutions have remain closed since the agitation began five days ago. 


The investigation committee formed by the Home Ministry has initiated preliminary investigation from Friday, while the newly appointed Chief District Officer Taranath Adhikari and Police Chief Kuber Kadayat are working to build a peaceful atmosphere to ensure better investigation into the murder of Nirmala.
