Indian truck drivers stranded at Nepal border appeal for help

Siliguri, Nov 28 (ANI): Indian trucks continued to make a beeline at the Nepal border even as officials of the two countries met to chalk out a solution to the impasse. Trucks carrying fuel and food have been stranded in India’s eastern border town of Siliguri for over two months since Nepal adopted its Constitution in September. Distressed truck drivers said that no help had reached them yet. The blockade has strangled Nepal’s fuel supplies and badly damaged the relations between the South Asian neighbours. Nepal is almost totally dependent on India for overland supplies following earthquakes in the spring that killed nearly 9,000 people and blocked crossings from China.
