Kathmandu. Dr. Jagman Gurung, acting coordinator of the People’s Movement Committee for the Restoration of the Monarchy, has said that mass arrests will be made on Baisakh 22.
He said this at a press conference held in Kathmandu on Wednesday. He said that the government has been given time until April 21 to release the committee chairmen and arrested leaders who were under house arrest after the Tinkune incident.
He said that if the government does not release the leaders within the deadline, he will make mass arrests through a civil disobedience movement by wearing mud masks soaked in the blood of the youths killed in Tinkune.
He called on all those interested to join the movement, saying that he would risk his life to lead the civil disobedience movement. He claimed that the campaign would be successful through the civil disobedience movement, which he said had no intention of carrying out armed or violent protests.
He said, ‘It is not about bringing our ego problems, nor is it about seeking status here. We should keep a low profile and make the movement successful. Our campaign will be successful. Don’t give up, it is not about the present and the past. Everything will come in time. If the current government does not revoke the warrants of our friends by the time of next Baisakh 21st, if it does not open the eyes of our coordinator, if it does not release our imprisoned friends, then on the 22nd, we will carry out mass arrests by wearing mud masks soaked in the blood of those who were martyred in Tinkune.’
He added, ‘I will walk first. I am a 78-year-old diabetic patient, I walk wearing a clay cane. Whoever comes, come. We will move forward in the movement with the love of our lives. Our movement will be a civil disobedience movement. We also ask our friends who want to carry out an armed movement to carry out a civil movement.’
Dr. Gurung said that the movement had subsided after the Tinkune program and that the opponents were spreading rumors that the monarchy would not return, and claimed that the monarchy would be restored and abandoned sooner or later through a campaign.
