The support was handed over by the Youth Association Lumbini Region Coordination Committee through the Youth Association Central Committee. Basnet and Magar were given Rs 25,000 each at a programme organised by the Youth Association Central Office. An assailant, on February 22, threw acid on the faces of the two students who were inside the classroom attending tuition classes for the SLC exam.
