KATHMANDU, July 20: Speaker Onsari Gharti Magar has said that she will do the needful to address the demands put forth by Dr Govinda KC, a senior orthopedic surgeon at Tribhuvan University Teaching Hospital (TUTH).



Dr KC is on a fast-unto-death since 11 days with his 11-point demands that includes impeachment of Chief Commissioner at the Commission for the Investigation of Abuse of Authority (CIAA), Lokman Singh Karki.



Speaker Gharti Magar reached TUTH on Wednesday to take stock of Dr KC’s health condition and expressed her commitments on discussing his demands with the top leaders.



“I will discuss your demands that are linked to the health of a common man with the top leaders,” she told the doctor, “I will do the needful from my position on fulfilling the demands.”



The Speaker also suggested Dr KC to take care of his health.



In reply, Dr KC said that he has a high hope from the Speaker as he is on a hunger strike for social justice and health of the citizens.
