Nepalese Students Continue To Politicize Fuel-price Rise

Issue 38, September 16, 2012

By KTM Metro Reporter

September 12, 2012: the so-called Nepalese students (most probably mercenaries) enforcing the national shutdown in protest against the fuel-price rise and demanding the resignation of the prime minister have vandalized a few vehicles elsewhere in Nepal. These guys calling themselves as students are most probably hired criminals that don’t understand not only damaging other people’s assets is a criminal act but also the shutting down the country for protest is a grave criminal act. As a matter of fact, all the political leaders use the same criminal tool for their political gains. How long Nepalis would tolerate such politics of criminals, and violence remains to be seen.

As the result of the shutdown, children could not go to schools causing grave concerns for the parents. This is only a part of the people’s concern but the entire people could not go to work, to a business; and the country came to standstill due to the criminals acting as students. These so-called students and the politicians that hired them don’t care about the millions of rupees worth of loss caused to the people by shutting down the country even for a day. Are they students or politicians or criminals that kill the work opportunities of millions of Nepalis?

Chairman of the Private and Boarding Schools Organization Nepal (PABSON), Baburam Pokhrel expressed dissatisfaction over the culture of shutting down schools to meet the demands of anyone, according to ‘thehimalayantimes.com’.

The government has decided to provide students with subsidized cooking gas and kerosene. The government decided yesterday to subsidize Rs. 250 per cylinder of cooking gas and Rs. 10 per liter of kerosene for students. Any student can buy four cylinders per year with subsidy and 10 liters of kerosene per month, according to the Ministry of Commerce and Supplies (MoCS), writes nepalnews.com
