Madhesi Protester In London

Reportedly ‘surprised’ by the presence of Nepali protesters in London, the Indian Prime Minister’s Office has sought a report on the scale of the protests and influence in British society. Dozens of Nepalis living in the British Capital and other parts of the country on Thursday had protested the visit of Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi to London, accusing the latter of imposing an unofficial blockade on Nepal. Following the protests, the Indian PMO directed the London-based Indian High Commission to measure a size of the protests, the Indian Express wrote on Saturday.
