KATHMANDU, March 29: The government has initiated an investigation into the granting of a weapons license to Durga Prasai.

A Cabinet meeting held on Thursday decided to establish a four-member committee, led by Home Ministry’s Joint Secretary Rajendra Dev Pandey.

In response to this, Prasai asserted that he had obtained permission to carry the weapons from the District Administration Office, Jhapa.

The committee has been tasked with completing its investigation within 15 days and submitting a comprehensive report on the matter.
