Minister Khand instructs for strong security arrangement in Kailali



Kathmandu, Dec 28 (RSS) : Minister for Home Affairs Bal Krishna Khand has instructed high-ranking police officers to put in place a strong security arrangement in two places in Kailali district- Lamki and Amarawati.

Minister Khand said that the government was sensitive towards the protecting lives of the citizen and would not spare any effort to ensure security for the citizens.
