Sahana Bajracharya at Movement for Constitution in Nepal

I am not sure how many of you among nine thousands that responded to attend this (Come on Youth, Stand Up!) event on Facebook actually went for this event, but still this was definitely a huge one! Nepali Youths organized a peace rally in Kathmandu, today to pressurize the leaders to give full commitment to the constitution writing process and to aware every youth to raise voice against every misdeed of the leaders. The event that started from a small group on Facebook (those even who don’t know among each other in the creator’s group) made it such a huge campaign.

More than two thousands youth as a part of Open Youth Movement participated in what is dubbed as “Facebook movement in Nepal”. The organized youth rally started from the western gate of the Constituent Assembly building, New Baneshwor and rounded various parts in Kathmandu and converged into a corner assembly.

Slogans like “No Work, No Pay”; “If not us, who? If not Now, when?”; “we don’t want to migrate, give us opportunity” and several other placards along with some loud voices made this inspiring event a success. Here are some images and videos from the event.

Here’s the Images gallery from the event. (All Images uploaded and added to the Facebook’s event page)

Nepal Unite’s event “Show up. Stand up. Speak up. Else, shut up” was just organized a week ago that attracted hundreds of youth to come on street and make their voice heard.

  2. […] NepaliBloggerの中でPradeep Kumar Singhは言う。「現状改革主義とその組織化に対するこの新しいアプローチ方法は、ネパールにとって間違いなく革新的なものである」 このイベント(Come on Youth, Stand Up!)への参加をFacebook上で表明した9000人のうち何人が実際に参加したか、私には分からない。それでも、イベントが大規模であったことは確かだ。今日、ネパールの若者たちがカトマンズで平和集会を開き、憲法作成に全力を傾けるよう指導者たちに迫り、また指導者の起こすいかなる不正に対しても若者全員で声をあげるよう促したのだ[訳注:原文の英語に誤りあり。一部、訳者の解釈に基づいて翻訳]。 […]

We are very sure that It’s our country, and we made it garbage and we are trying to clean it so please do join in to know the reality. […]
