Nepal, May 11 (ANI): Chairman of Sanghiya Samajwadi Forum Nepal, Upendra Yadav, said that Madhesi protest, demanding better representation in Constitution, will revolve around Kathmandu until the community's demands were not met by the government. Criticising the central government for not taking a call on demands, Yadav said that demonstrators will gherao Singh Darbar in the coming days as a mark of protest. Yadav recalled how the blockade at India-Nepal border had resulted in black-marketting of goods, which led to commodities being sold at sky-rocketing prices. Due to the months-long Madhesi agitation, Nepal's industrial sector incurred losses worth 200 billion Nepalese rupees. The protests that stretched for over four months saw deaths of more than 50 people.
