While the indefinite district bandh called by the Maoists affected life in Dolakha district today, the Maoists shut Kavre and Sindhupalchowk districts too today.
The Maoists had called the indefinite bandh in Dolakha putting forward their 3-point demand including release of their cadres arrested for beating up Dolakha CDO Uddhav Bahadur Thapa on Sunday and withdrawal of cases against them.
The Maoists in Kavre and Sindhupalchowk had called a daylong bandh to express solidarity with their comrades in Dolakha.
Transport services, educational institutions and market places remained closed in all three districts. Maoists have blocked the highways by placing obstructions at various places.
Police have arrested nearly three dozen Maoist cadres and charged 11 of them with murder attempt.
Meanwhile, an all-party meeting is scheduled to take place in Charikot in a bid to find a solution to the dispute in Dolakha.
