Cadres of Youth Congress Nepal staged a protest against Finance Minister Janardhan Sharma in front of Singha Durbar on Wednesday demanding his resignation.

Minister Sharma has been accused of tweaking tax rates a day before presenting the budget in the parliament. He is also accused of deleting CCTV footage which could have been prime evidence of unauthorised entry during the budget planning.

Police had arrested a few cadres during the protest for demonstrating in a prohibited area.

Here are some photos of the protest taken by Post photographer Prakash Chandra Timilsina.
