Province 1, Panchthar, Phidim
Youths organised a sit-in protest at Phidim, the district headquarters of Panchthar, on Thursday, demanding the government to address the demands of Dr Govinda KC, the anti-corruption crusader, who has been staging his 16th fast-unto-death strike demanding reforms in the medical sector. Bikash Thapa, coordinator of the Yuba Abhiyan, said that demonstrators closed their eyes with black bands and staged a sit-in protesting the government’s move to try and pass the Medical Education Bill disregarding the agreements made with KC.
