'Indefinite blockade' on Indo-Nepal border in Bihar cripples trade
An 'indefinite road blockade' by residents in Bihar's Jogbani has brought trade between India and Nepal to a halt on the Jogbani Land Customs Station for the past 48 hours. An SOS report dispatched to Union Finance Ministry said: "Non-movement of the import-export consignments on account of indefinite traffic blockade and closure of market" by the local people in border town of Jogbani in Araria district. "Following the closure of the Customs Station at Jogbani for the past two days, international trade with India has been brought to a halt. "Nepal customs officials, based across in the border town of Biratnagar, have requested their Indian counterparts to break the deadlock so that movement of essential goods, oil and gas can resume," the customs official added.
