Sugar mills are gradually clearing years-long dues, says government but farmers are not satisfied.

With the deadline for payment on Monday, sugarcane farmers say they want to know how much each farmer has been paid. There are also differences on how much is actually owed.

Siya Ram Raya Yadav, son of 72-year-old farmer Narayan who died from heart attack in Kathmandu a day after agitating sugarcane farmers ended their protest on December 28, is facing financial ruin.
