All Nepal National Independent Students Union-Revolutionary (ANNISU-R) Tuesday organised a rally in the capital, protesting the unofficial blockade imposed by India on Nepal. 

The procession which originated from Basantapur Dabali converged into a corner meeting upon reaching in front of RR Campus. 

Addressing the gathering, ANNISU-R central committee president Ashok Prasad Pokhrel said the rally was held as a symbol of warning against the blockade. 

Foreign meddling in internal affairs was never acceptable to the students, he said. "Students will always stand against external interference in the domestic affairs." He called on the government to seek alternatives that help reduce foreign-dependency and ultimately lead the country towards self- dependency. 

Union General Secretary Lal Bahadur Tamang said students should always be ready to defend if there is any attack on people's fundamental rights and nationality. 

A large number of students joined the programme. RSS
