A person died after a clash during a wedding party in Kumalgaun, Palungtar Municipality-4 of Gorkha district, on Wednesday.
The deceased has been identified as Bishnu Bahadur Kumar, 34, a permanent resident of neighbouring Lamjung district. Kumar was in the Gorkha village to take part in the party from the bridegroom’s side.
