Nepal's 27 km long human protest

Thousands of students in Nepal's capital Kathmandu formed a 27 kilometre long human chain today to protest against a border blockade that has led to severe fuel shortages, forcing schools to extend holidays and cut down on classes. Nepal accuses India of imposing an ``undeclared blockade,'' which India denies. These students from Maitri School in Kathmandu took part in the protest and sent us this message.
