Loan shark victims’ march reaches Lalbandi (Pictures)

Setopati

Kathmandu, July 12

The march for justice against loan sharking, which began in Janakpur on July 9, entered its fourth day on Sunday as participants moved forward from Lalbandi.

Participants said that they are traveling to Kathmandu to awaken the state and establish their rights.

Victims of loan sharking are participating in the march, carrying placards with slogans such as "Tear up the documents quietly" and "One shouldn't have to go to Kathmandu to demand rights."

They are covering approximately 20-26 kilometers on foot each day as they head toward the capital.

They explained that they are returning to Kathmandu to exert pressure because the government has failed to implement its commitments despite reaching agreements four times in the past.

The participants said that they will reach Kathmandu within about a week.
