In the concurrent context, we can simply reckon the cessation of Dr KC’s pre-formulated decision to enact fast-unto-death by the Government. He was arrested by the District Administration Office while on hunger strike at Jumla Teaching Hospital. However, another persuading point is that he never escaped from the barriers that stopped him from doing good deeds.
Hence, he started his fast-unto-death at Jumla Police Office following his arrest on Saturday. About a week back, Dr KC had organized a silent demonstration at Maitighar Mandala, demanding the government to lift the ban on holding protest rallies there. Maitighar Mandala has been a popular podium for protest gatherings. Dr KC added, “In democracy, people have the right to raise their voice against the government. By placing a ban on holding protests at Maitighar Mandala, the government has violated citizen’s fundamental rights.”
