40 days of rage as microfinance victims demand justice (Pics)



KATHMANDU: Victims of microfinance institutions have staged a demonstration at Maitighar even today, accusing the government of failing to fulfill a previous agreement.

The protesters had ended their earlier movement earlier after reaching an understanding with the government. However, they resumed their agitation on March 30, citing unaddressed commitments. As of Thursday, the protest has continued for 40 days.
