The Nepal Government has agreed to demonstrators' demands for freed bonded labourers to receive vital support, ending seven days of protests on 23 July. The Government said it will provide former bonded labourers with land and identity cards, which are required under the law. It also announced it will form a monitoring commission within one month.
