Former CA member and Sanghiya Socialist Forum Nepal’s central committee member Baban Singh has expressed that three journalists of Rautahat should be set on fire after being doused in petrol. Singh, during his interview to Kohinoor FM in Gaur on September 14 evening, said that Shiva Puri of Kantipur daily, Madan Thakur of Nagarik daily and Gautam Shrestha of Avenues Television should be set ablaze. He claimed that these reporters had filed reports to weaken the agitation of the Madhesi Morcha and not giving enough publicity to the ongoing agitation. FNJ Rautaht chairperson Shailendra Gupta issued a statement in the evening saying that the statement was highly objectionable.
