After Nepal promulgated the new Constitution on September 20, the agitating Madhesi parties resorted to obstructing the Nepal-India border points. After the existing stock dwindled and as the border blockade continues, Nepal is currently reeling under acute shortage of daily essentials including fuel and medicines.

While Nepali side accuses India of imposing an unofficial blockade, India has been claiming that protesters in Tarai are responsible for the obstruction.

Thapa had left for India on Monday to take part in a religious function.
