Security has been beefed up in the district considering the potential clash between the two sides. Security personnel have been deployed at all the entry points of Rajbiraj, CPN-UML’s party office and in the areas where local UML leaders reside. UML changes venue Meanwhile, CPN-UML has changed the venue of mass meeting and the route of Mechi-Mahakali campaign due to security concerns. The party had earlier scheduled the mass meeting at the Raj Stadium in Rajbiraj. Now, the mass meeting will be held at the Maleth VDC-based industrial area, which is three km away from Rajbiraj, according to Govinda Neupane, the party’s district chairman. The Mechi-Mahakali campaign will reach the venue via the highway as per the new plan. The UDMF, on the other hand, has warned of thwarting the UML programme in new venue also. The UML is holding programmes in Inaruwa of Sunsari and Kanchanpur besides Rajbiraj tomorrow. एमालेको मेची महाकाली अभियानअन्तरगत सोमबार सप्तरीमा हुने क्रार्यक्रमका बिरुद्ध सडकमा ओर्लेको संयुक्त लोकतान्त्रिक मधेसी मोर्चाले आईतवार साँझ राजविराजमा मसाल जुलुस प्रदर्शन गरेको छ । स्थानीय शिव मन्दिरबाट निस्केको मोर्चा कार्यकर्ताहरुको मसाल जुलुस राजविराज नगरको परिक्रमा गर्दे स्थानीय नेता चोकमा पुगेर कोण सभामा परिणत भएको थियो । राजविराजबाहेक पूर्व पश्चिम राजमार्गअन्तरगत सप्तरीको रुपनी र भारदहलगायतका स्थानमा पनि मोर्चाका कार्यकर्ताहरुले मसाल जुलुस प्रदर्शन गरेका छन् । मसाल जुलुसका सहभागीले एमाले र अध्यक्ष केपी ओलीका बिरुद्ध चर्को नाराबाजी गरेका थिए । मोर्चाले एमालेको कार्यक्रमलाई लक्षित गरी सोमबार सप्तरीमा यातायात बन्द, लाठी जुलुस र कालो झण्डा प्रदर्शन गर्ने तयारी गरेको छ । मोर्चाले सदरमुकाम राजविराज र भारदहमा ठुलो संख्यामा कार्यकर्ता सडकमा उतार्ने दाबी गरेको छ । यसैबीच संयुक्त लोकतान्त्रिक मधेशी मोर्चाको अबरोध पछि एमालेले सोमवार राजविराज स्थित राजरंगशालामा आयोजना गर्ने भनिएको कार्यक्रमको स्थान परिवर्तन गरेको छ । एमालेले फागुन २३ गते राजविराज स्थित राजरंगशालामा कार्यक्रम गर्ने तयारी गरेको थियो । उक्त स्थानमा कुनै पनि हालतमा कार्यक्रम गर्न नदिने मोर्चाको चेतावनीपछि एमालेले स्थान परिवर्तन गरेपनि नयाँ स्थानमा पनि कार्यक्रम गर्न नदिने मोर्चाका नेताहरूले बताएका छन् ।
