Kathmandu, December 20
Students affiliated to the Nepal Students Union organised a rally in Kathmandu on Thursday to demand clean air.
The students picketed Kathmandu Metropolitan City’s Office demanding action to combat the menace of air pollution. The demonstrations come as several reports have shown that Kathmandu’s air quality is one of the worst in the world.
The demonstrators demanded that the government give its people the right to breathe freely. They also demanded that pollution checks on vehicles be made more stringent.
