Anti-government protest against dissolution of Parliament intensifies in Nepal

KATHMANDU, 03 July 2021, (TON): The student union affiliated with the opposition alliance in Nepal has continued to stage demonstrations to protest against the dissolution of Parliament. The protestors burnt an effigy of caretaker Prime Minister KP Sharma Oli near the Parliament.

The student union has been on road since May, after the dissolution of Parliament for the second time in less than a year. They have been engaging in scuffles with Police as they stage demonstrations.

A protest leader said “KP Sharma Oli, who has a mindset of the autocratic ruler, has been ruling nation by issuing ordinances, dissolve parliament where people`s representation use to be and working on the basis of whims and own wills."

The opposition student alliance also has vowed to continue their protest in the coming days. They have called on for a torch march for Saturday throughout the nation against the incumbent protest. During the protest, protestors chanted slogans against Oli as well as sitting President Bidhya Devi Bhandari demanding to scrap the unconstitutional move.
