"Our national dignity has been undermined by the government’s decision to observe a public holiday in honor of the President of India that imposed blockade on Nepal breaching the international trade and treaty after Nepal did not promulgate the constitution as per the southern neighbor’s interest," the ANNFSU said in the statement.
The ANNFSU has also criticized the decision saying that it is an indication of self-defeatism which will send negative message to the international community, reads the statement.
