Earlier in the day, Nepalese police had baton-charged Madhesi protesters, burned down their tents and evicted them from the Miteri bridge at the Indo-Nepal border, opening the main Birgunj-Raxaul border trading point for the first time in 40 days.
The ongoing Madhesi agitation has led to a halt in supply of essential goods, causing acute shortage of fuel in Nepal.
