This song depicts the involvement of those, both men and women, who took up arms in the Maoist people's war in ‘illicit affairs’, which they claimed have offended them, reads the statement. 


"We want to draw the attention of the authorities concerned to take action against those who have engaged in outright false and misleading activities. Similarly, we want this video to be removed from YouTube and such reprehensible activities to close, and we urge the party in question to publicly apologize before the entire Nepali people after accepting the crime."
