NEPALGUNJ, April 7: Locals called a general strike in the mid-western hub of Nepalgunj on Tuesday demanding establishment of the proposed mid-western university there.



Normal life in the town has been thrown out of gear due to the strike. Transportation, markets and industries haven’t come into operation since morning. Students have blocked the road by burning tires.



The government has decided to set up the university in Surkhet. The locals here have warned of calling stronger forms of strikes unless the government decides to set up the university in Nepalgunj.
