The district will also ban playing Deusi and Bhailo during this year’s Tihar festival.

In a bid to avoid unnecessary gatherings during Tihar, we decided to enforce curfew in the district, said Chief District Officer of Nuwakot, Jhankanath Dhakal.

Market and transport vehicles will be allowed to operate following health safety protocols.

The local government and police have been given the responsibility to monitor health safety guidelines.
