Nepalese people load their luggage on top of the few buses parked along the roads during a nationwide strike in Kathmandu on November 11. The nationwide strike, which was called by the 33-party alliance led by the Communist Party of Nepal-Maoist, demanded the immediate withdrawal of the government's decision to hold a Constituent Assembly Election on November 19 in Kathmandu. Daily life in the capital has come to a standstill due to the shutdown, according to local media reports. Reuters/Navesh Chitrakar
