Kathmandu Feb 28 (UNI) Normal life was affected throughout Nepal today due to nationwide bandh called by the Nepal Federation of Indigenous Nationalities (NFIN).
Market places, education institutions remained closed and the streets were deserted here and in most of the major towns across the country, said Nepal FM quoting reporters.
The bandh was observed to pressurise the government to fulfil its 24-point demands despite government requests to withdraw.
The bandh was organised demanding ethnic autonomy, federal system, linguistic freedom, proportional representation in the constituent assembly and guarantee of self determination, among others.
Meanwhile, a press statement by the Federation of Nepalese Chambers of Commerce and Industries (FNCCI) has urged the government to find a solution to the Terai unrest and other demands raised by different communities.
