The Nepal Government on Sunday warned its citizens against carrying out any “reprehensible and disgraceful” actions that may hurt the dignity of friendly nations after some people burnt effigies of Prime Minister Narendra Modi during protests in the country.

In a statement, Nepal’s Home Ministry said that in the past few days, “the activities of chanting slogans, holding demonstrations and protests and burning effigies to tarnish the image of the neighbouring friendly nation’s Prime Minister has caught” its attention.

The Home Ministry statement, however, did not identify the leader.
