health condition has deteriorated for Dr. Govinda KC

Meanwhile, health condition has deteriorated for Dr. Govinda KC, who has been staging a fast-unto-death for the last six days. Dr. KC has been given oxygen with increasing pain in the chest and head, and his blood pressure is on a rapid decline, according to doctors. Despite his worsening health condition, Dr. KC has reiterated his stance on not calling off the hunger-strike until his demands are addressed. Meanwhile, in support to Dr. KC's cause, doctors at Teaching Hospital have halted services at the Out-patient Department. Residential doctors are saying the move was to pile pressure on the government. Dr. KC has been staging his fifth fast-unto-death protest since Sunday with a 10-point demand including prohibiting affiliation to colleges sans required infrastructures, formulation of a clear medical policy, and easy access to medical service and education among others. He has taken to protest again after the government failed to implement the agreement it had reached with him in the past.
