KAVRE, July 25 (PR) - Police posts have been
removed from the rural areas of the district and brought to the district headquarters for
security reasons.

police posts, five Area police offices and a District Police Office in Kavre district last
year. However, the presence of police is not seen these days in most of the police posts
except in those located near the district headquarters.

and Mechchhe police posts where they have got their own buildings. The Area Police Office
of Dandapari area has also been moved from Taldhunga to Dhulikhel, headquarters of the
district.
According to local people, Phoksingtar police
office, Budhakhani and Area Police Office, Gokule Ghartichhap have also been moved to
Dhulikhel fearing attacks from Maoist rebels.
