Police have taken under control more than 100 motorcycles and four-wheelers violating the ban daily. Similarly, those who go out except for urgent work are kept in the holding center for some time and released.

The added ban finishes on Wednesday night. For the first time, ban period was till August 26. Ban was extended till September 2 after the security committee meeting of the three districts held on August 25.

The chief district officers of Kathmandu, Bhaktapur and Lalitpur districts of the Kathmandu Valley are preparing to request the Home Ministry to decide whether to continue or end the ban.
