The Janatantrik Terai Mukti Morcha (Terai People’s Autonomous Movement) issued a press statement declaring a transport bandh for all ‘Pahadiya’, or people of hill origins in Terai districts attached to East – West Highway (Mahendra Highway) from 16 – 30 December, 2006. To date the bandh has not been observed in all nominated districts, with only Dhanusha, Siraha and Saptari being heavily affected. Buses and trucks owned / driven by Pahadiya have remained in transport depots; however, long-route buses operated from Kathmandu, including those driven by Pahadiya, have continued to operate, also to Eastern Terai districts.
