Tanahun VDC secretaries resigned en masse owing to the recent wave of threats against the local body employees across the nation.

A little-known underground outfit, Sanyukta Jatiya Mukti Morcha (SJMM), has been sending letters to VDC secretaries forcing them to quit their offices.

The secretaries submitted their resignations to Local Development Officer (LDO) Hari Prasad Dahal today.

33 VDC secretaries working in 46 different VDCs have resigned citing lack of security and the threats, VDC Secretaries' Welfare Protection Centre (VDCWPC) Chairman Buddhiman Shrestha informed.

VDC secretaries from different districts have been complying with the threats of SJMM by submitting en bloc resignation over the past few weeks.
