Chure Bhawar Rastriya ekta Party (CBREP) has staged a protest along the east-west highway at Hariwan of Sarlahi district demanding a separate state on Friday.

The CBREP cadres chanted slogans like ‘establish Chure Bhawar as a separate state according to past agreement’, ‘protect the national sovereignty and dignity’, ‘end the Indian blockade’, during the protest.

Party Chairman Badri Neupane said that they organised the protest demanding the implementation of 8-point agreement forged during the premiership of late Girija Prashad Koirala. “We will continue the protests until our demands are met.”
