Ninth day of teachers’ protest: Umbrellas replace placards



KATHMANDU: Teachers and school employees across the country have been protesting for the ninth consecutive day in Kathmandu.

Today, they gathered in the streets, demanding the implementation of the Education Act and the fulfillment of previous agreements.

Despite the rain, protesters took to the streets, blocking the main road as they demonstrated with umbrellas, marching from Maitighar to Naya Baneshwor.

The protest, which began on Chaitra 20, has now entered its ninth day. Teachers are assembling at Maitighar Mandala before proceeding to Naya Baneshwor to hold a formal program.

They have warned that they will continue their protest unless their demands are addressed.
