Students affiliated with various students group shout slogans against India near the Indian Embassy during a protest against the blockade of cargo trucks along the border with India in Kathmandu, Nepal, Monday, Sept. 28, 2015. Nepal started imposing restrictions on the movement of vehicles on Sunday as a blockade of cargo trucks trying to enter the country from neighboring India continued to severely limit supplies of
fuel and other essential commodities. Trucks carrying supplies from India stopped entering Nepal this past week amid angry protests following the adoption of a new constitution. With Indo-Nepal ties witnessing unease after the promulgation of the new Constitution here, India on Tuesday hoped that “difficult days” would not affect their friendship as it welcomed the Nepal government’s move to hold talks with agitating groups.
