Kathmandu,
Nov 25: Nepal has closed its border with India and China as it is getting
ready for the provincial and parliamentary polls.
The borders with the two mighty neighbours were closed on
Friday. Land-locked Nepal is holding provincial and parliamentary
elections in two phases on November 26 and December 7. More than 300 thousand members of the security forces are
being deployed for the two-stage election. The northern provinces are voting on
Sunday, while the southern provinces and Kathmandu will go to the polls on
December 7, the media reports here said. The elections are being seen as a historic step in Nepal's
transition to a federal democracy following a decade-long civil war till 2006
that claimed more than 16,000 lives. UNI
