However, press vehicles, ambulance and tourist vehicles are seen plying on the road.



Few two wheelers are also seen running on the road.



Police have rounded up around hundred supporters of the party, including former minister of the royal cabinet Tanka Dhakal, from different places like Putalisadak, New Baneshwor and Kalanki, among others.



A large number of security personnel have been mobilized to avoid any untoward incidents.



Meanwhile, protestors vandalize a vehicle in Balkhu.



RPP-N has been demanding that republicanism, secularism and federalism in the country should be decided through a referendum.
