The security situation in Nepal has been strengthened in view of the prevailing tension in the region. More than 22 entry points on the country's border with India have been closed for 72 hours. Meanwhile, Nepalese citizenship and identity card holders will be allowed to enter the country only, said Eastern Police Officer Tunga Bhattarai.
More than 40 thousand members of the army, police, armed police and the National Investigation Department have been deployed in the polling booths as part of strengthening security arrangements.
