Concerns over potential government reluctance to withdraw all charges linked to the Gen Z movement have sparked urgent calls for comprehensive justice and institutional accountability. During a stakeholder interaction held at Pokhara Central Oasis in Tersapatti, family members of incarcerated individuals and youth activists expressed deep distress over reports suggesting that the administration may only dismiss a selective subset of cases, leaving numerous participants facing ongoing prosecution.
The event, convened by the Gen Z Movement Case Addressing Pressure Group, brought together affected families, civic advocates, and media personnel to forge a unified public stance. Addressing the gathering, prominent youth campaigners Sarishma Thapa and Monika Niraula—who have spent the past year pushing nationally for charge dismissals—stressed that sustained civic vigilance remains essential to secure the unconditional release of all detainees and clear those facing politically motivated charges.
Families present at the forum shared personal accounts of the emotional and logistical burdens caused by prolonged incarcerations, urging state authorities to handle the matters with utmost urgency and seriousness. Leadership from the pressure group, including Chairman Khali Thapa, Vice Chairman Vivek Nalmi, Joint Secretary Shanti Sai, and civic activist Chandra Bahadur Gurung, reiterated their commitment to maintaining public pressure until every provision of the original 10-point agreement is fully implemented.
Closing the session, Group Secretary Rajan Shrestha acknowledged the pivotal role of responsible journalism in keeping these grievances within the public spotlight. Organizers affirmed that their oversight campaigns will persist unabated until complete legal relief and full agreement compliance are realized.
