The District Administration Office, Parsa, has lifted a curfew order clamped from 6:00 am to 10:00 pm today after gradual improvement in the district’s security situation. A meeting of the District Security Committee held this morning, however, has decided to continue the earlier move of issuing the riot-hit area, Chief District Officer of Parsa Anuj Bhandari said. The locals have felt a great sigh of relief after the administration’s decision to lift the curfew order. The DAO had been imposing an indefinite curfew in Birgunj since August 31.
