NSU burns TU Vice Chancellor’s chair



KATHMANDU: Students affiliated to the main opposition Nepali Congress (NC), Nepal Students Union, today burnt the chair of Tribhuvan University (TU) Vice-Chancellor Dharma Kanta Baskota.

The students took out Baskota’s chair on the road and burned it into ashes.

They also padlocked the offices of the VC, Rector, and the Registrar.
