Authorities in Nepal have imposed indefinite curfews in several districts, including Janakpur, Dhanusha, Saptari, and Siraha, following escalating sectarian violence. The clashes began in Sunsari district over a dispute involving loud music during a Hindu event and have since escalated, with Hindutva mobs attacking Muslim-owned businesses and forcing Muslim residents to recite Hindu-nationalist chants. The violence has left at least three people dead and several injured. Security forces have been deployed to enforce the curfews and prevent further escalation.
