India is still saying that it is not responsible for the shortages in Nepal. Due to the crisis, lives have been affected all over Nepal. “Soon after the constitution was agreed in September, the protests were stepped up as demonstrators blocked border posts with India, including the main entry point at Birgunj, a town about 135km south of the capital, Kathmandu. The blockade has led to acute shortages of petrol, cooking gas and other essential supplies.” (The Guardian)
