KATHMANDU, March 30: In response to the growing calls for the arrest of former King Gyanendra Shah following the violent protest in Tinkune on Friday, supporters of the former king have launched the hashtag "Arrest Prachanda."


This social media movement is aimed at Pushpa Kamal Dahal, the Chairman of the Communist Party of Nepal (Maoist Center), accusing him of responsibility for his controversial remarks regarding the deaths during the People's War.
