Nepal government has formed a five-member panel to look into the demand for separate burial grounds by Christians. Christians, a minority in the erstwhile Hindu kingdom, have been undertaking a relay hunger strike since March 23 seeking land to bury their dead. Urging the community to end the strike, the ministry for federal affairs, constituent assembly, parliamentary affairs and culture formed the committee on Thursday.Chief of the committee Rishikesh Niraula said that it would study the case and submit a report within the next 45 days.
