To mourn the death of Provincial Minister for Internal Affairs and Law Prithvi Bahadur Singh Singh.

The Sudurpaschim provincial government has declared a public holiday on Wednesday June 21st 2023 expressing grief over the demise of Sudurpaschim Provincial Minister for Internal Affairs and Law Prithvi Bahadur Singh Singh.

Minister Singh was taken to hospital but passed away while undergoing treatment at Nepalgunj-based Hospital later in the evening. Singh's wife Amrita and his sister-in-law Jayadevi also died shortly after the accident.
