Traffic obstructed in Kathmandu as Maoists continue protest

Vehicular movement has been obstructed in various parts of capital Kathmandu as cadres of Maoist affiliated trade unions gathered at various squares Friday morning.

The trade unions are obstructing traffic and staging demonstrations for two hours from 10 am to 12 noon as part of their protest programme against the President’s move to block the erstwhile government’s decision to sack the army chief.

As part of the same programme, Maoist affiliated Tharu Rastriya Mukti Morcha has called a ‘bandh’ in five districts in the mid-west and far-west on Friday.

Transportation has been disrupted and markets and educational institutions have remained closed in their strong hold districts including Dang, Banke and Bardiya.

Morcha cadres have started burning tires and staging demonstrations at various parts of the districts.

The Maoists are also organising a protest rally against the border encroachment in Dang later today. nepalnews.com Jun 05 09
