Kantipur Report

DHULIKHEL, July 10 - The Kathmandu University (KU) in Dhulikhel has been closed down for 25 days from Friday. Citing the disruption of academics and regular administrative work due to the obstruction by the locals of Dhulikhel where the university is located, the KU administration today decided to close down the university for 25 days. Bakhundol locals at Dhulikhel Municipality-7 of Kavre district have been blocking the roadway to the KU to press the university administration to fulfill their demands like employment for locals, scholarship for their children and allowing locals to run the university cafeteria.

Also, the university was compelled to postpone the regular examinations of different faculties due to the obstruction.
