Madhes, Mahottari, Matihani

Tension has gripped the Nepal-India border after the Indian Seema Suraksha Bal (SSB) on Monday thrashed two Nepalis at Matihani VDC of Mahottari district, suspecting them to be Indian smugglers. The SSB personnel stationed at Madhabpur of Bihar’s Madhubani district near Nepali border had intercepted two Indian nationals who were smuggling cement into Nepal. Somehow, the smugglers managed to flee. The Indian security personnel then entered the Nepali land while chasing them but ended up beating locals, Ganesh Chaudhary and Mahesh Mahato at around 3 pm yesterday. Chaudhary and Mahato, who were with their families at Matihani- 7, were wrongly accused of being the same smugglers. The duo were then whipped with sticks and thrashed with boots by the Indian security personnel inflicting them serious injuries. Following the incident, the locals and the SSB are in a tense standoff at Matihani and Madhabpur. Subsequently, the border point have remained shut since Monday afternoon. भारतीय सीमा सुरक्षा बल (एसएसबी) द्वारा महोत्तरीको मटिहानी गाविसमा दुईजना नेपाली निर्घात कुटिएका छन् । सोमबार दिउँसो करिब ३ बजेको समयमा भारत विहारको मधुबनी जिल्लाअन्तर्गत पर्ने मधवापुरमा सीमा सुरक्षाका लागि खटिरहेका एसएसबीका जवानले नेपालतर्फ मटिहानी–७ मा प्रवेश गरी स्थानीयवासी गणेश चौधरी र महेश महतोलाई निर्घात कुटपिट गरेका हुन् । एसएसबीले उनीहरुलाई लट्ठी र बुटले कुटेपछि उनीहरु गम्भीर घाइते भएका छन् भने उनीहरुको उपचार स्थानीय स्वास्थ्य संस्थामा भइरहेको छ । मधवापुर बजारबाट दुईजना भारतीय नागरिक तस्करी गरी दुई बोरा सिमेन्ट बोकेर नेपाल प्रवेश गर्न लाग्दा एसएसबीले सीमामा उनीहरुलाई रुक्न भनेका थिए भने उनीहरु त्यहाँबाट भागेर नेपाल प्रवेश गरी मटिहानी–७ बाट अचानक बेपत्ता भएका थिए । यसैबीच, मटिहानी–७ स्थित आफ्नो घरबाहिर बसिरहेका गणेश चौधरी र महेश महतोलाई नै एसएसबीले तस्करीमा संलग्न रहेको भन्दै निर्घात कुटपिट गरेको पीडितले बताएका छन् । यसले गर्दा मटिहानी र मधवापुरको सीमा नाकामा स्थानीय र एसएसबीबीच तनाव पैदा भएको छ । सो सीमा नाका दिउँसोदेखि अवरुद्ध रहेको थियो । रासस
