Students of the Biratnagar-based Nobel Medical College, which has been accused of charging more fees than the amount fixed by the government, have reached Kathmandu to pile pressure on the government.

The students led by Manish Bhattarai, coordinator of the Medical Education Struggle Committee, came to Kathmandu saying that the Nobel Medical College has not refund the students who have been charged additional fees yet.

Saying that the Nobel Medical College has been cheating the students, Bhattarai said that they would continue their protest until the college refunds the extra fees collected from the students.

It has been learnt that the Kathmandu Medical College has also been charging extra Rs 600,000 from the students.

The government has been urging the medical colleges to refund the additional fees of the students but to no avail.
