Four people's organizations close to the Maoist center have objected to the Kathmandu Metropolitan City's dozers in the Manohara area of Bhaktapur.
Chitra Bahadur Shrestha, President of All Nepal Kisan Federation (Revolutionary Centre), Jagat Bahadur Simkhada, President of All Nepal Trade Union Federation (ANTUF), Daljit Sripali, President of Nepal Dalit Mukti Morcha and Amar Pariyar, President of All Nepal Sukumwasi Sangh issued a joint press statement calling the incident as 'dozer terror' and demanded an immediate stop to such actions.
The Metropolitan Municipality mobilized police and city police and accused the attack on poor farmers, laborers, Dalits and tribal Sukumbashi residents of being inhumane. It is mentioned in the statement that the demolition of huts and chapra during the heavy rains, looting of goods and displacement of the residents have violated the right to housing and land provided by the constitution.
Those organizations have claimed that the UML-Congress coalition government, the Kathmandu Metropolitan Municipality and the Land Problem Resolution Commission have exposed the anti-Dalit, Sukumbasi and anti-poor character of the UML-Congress coalition government without proceeding with the process when the people have been applying to get Lalpurja according to the law.
Their demand is to amend the Land Act 2021 and repeal the anti-people provisions and distribute the land to the landless who have been enjoying land for generations.
