Members of Nepal’s National Assembly have urged the government to halt sending Nepali students to Odisha’s Kalinga Institute of Industrial Technology (KIIT) where two Nepalese female students died in suspicious circumstances within a period of three months.

They proposed denying No-Objection Certificates (NOCs) to any student seeking enrolment at the institute, according to the Parliament Secretariat sources.
