Locals have staged a protest against Dr. Govinda KC, who has been on a hunger strike for three days at the Krishna Temple in Dhangadhi.
They reached the site of the hunger strike and chanted slogans, pressuring him to immediately end the strike. Locals have accused interest groups of using Dr. KC to create obstacles just as Shahid Dasharath Chand University is about to begin operations. Security personnel have been deployed at the protest site to control the crowd.
Preparations are being made to admit KC to the hospital after his health deteriorated. According to his associate, Dr. Amrit Jaisi, KC's blood sugar level has dropped significantly to 50. Preparations are underway to take him to Seti Provincial Hospital in Dhangadhi, Dr. Jaisi said.
Dr. KC had begun his 24th hunger strike at the Krishna Temple in Dhangadhi, putting forward various demands for reforms in medical education and the health sector.
