46 days of Swargadwari Guthipeed sit-in

Mohi farmers of Swargadwari Guthi of Dang have been on a continuous protest strike since January 20th. They are sitting in the maitighar of Kathmandu and are telling the government - grab the Guthi land....

Wednesday is the 46th day of their sit-in. Farmers under the leadership of 'Guthipidit Kisan Sangharsh Samiti' are on sit-in demanding that the Guthi Bill should be brought as soon as possible and the farmers should get the ownership of the land tilled, Guthi land should be 'racked' and the farmers should be provided with the land ownership certificate, the land should be registered in the name of the tillers and the raker should be provided.

Meanwhile, the government has not even been able to have an intensive discussion about their demands. The government has formed a joint secretary level committee, but it has not been able to persuade the agitating farmers through negotiations. The state has not discussed their demands, but instead repressed them. The government does not meet the demand, but the farmers who sit on dharna are adamant. They say, 'We will die instead, we will not return home if the demand is not met.' Until now, agreements have been made time and again between the government and Swargadwari farmers, but the state has not shown readiness to implement them.

Farmers have been protesting since 2045 that they should own the cultivated land. Kisan has Mohiyani part, but on 14th Chait, 2062, the joint bench of the Supreme Court issued an order and canceled that part as well. Since then, their movement has not stopped. The Supreme Court had ordered that 'Swargadwari Guthi is a private Guthi of a special nature so that the land of the ashram cannot be fragmented'. It has been years since Mohi farmers have been demanding justice against the Supreme Court's order, carrying evidence of Mohipurja.

The district-centered movement of Guthi-affected farmers who plowed the land of Swargadwari Guthi since 2045 years after the capital city moved, the government is busy in making a deal. They have 3 demands in this movement. 1. A legal arrangement should be made to transfer the land cultivated by Mohi farmers in the name of Mohi. 2. The rights of the evicted Mohi of Guthi land which is said to be private of a special nature should be restored. 3. Arrangements should be made to pay through the ward of Raitani, which has to be paid by the farmers.

Last year, a two-point agreement was reached between Swargadwari Guthipidit Mohi Sangharsh Samiti and the government. This agreement is not binding. For that, more than 2,000 Guthipitas had sweated in the street fighting against the scorching sun and heavy rain of Dang. After a continuous and intense protest for 31 days, the Ministry of Land Management, Cooperatives and Poverty Alleviation made a two-point agreement with them on 7th Chait 2080.

In agreement (1) To organize the arrangements made by the Constitution of Nepal 2072 regarding Guthi, and to start the process of drafting a new unified Guthi-related law in order to address the demands of the struggling Mohi farmers currently living on the land of Swargadwari Ashram (2) To postpone all the programs of the struggle that the struggling Mohi farmers have been doing since today with various demands and to provide necessary advice, suggestions and support to the relevant bodies in a representative manner in the process of drafting the necessary laws related to Guthi. was included.

However, Bharat Giri, secretary of Swargadwari Guthipidit Sangharsh Samiti, says that the agreement has not been implemented. He says, 'After this agreement, we had a lot of hope and trust in the government, but this trust turned into disappointment. We are very sad now. That's why we are sitting on a dharna on the cold road in Maitighar to convey our pain, suffering and sorrow to everyone.'

The farmer's question is, 'Why is the compromise government not honest? We were sent home to Fakaifu before, but the commitment was not implemented . We complained to the Prime Minister, the Minister of Land Management, and the former Prime Ministers, but the promise was not fulfilled. Praveen Dahit (25), secretary of Swargadwari Guthipidit Mohi Kisan Sangharsh Samiti Dang, of Ghorahi-14, says, "That's why we came to Kathmandu again." The government finds it easier to repress than to address the demand. Farmers are getting more and more frustrated due to the fact that the demands of the farmers are not being addressed, but instead there are clashes. The farmers, who have received hopes and promises from the government time and again, but who are adamant that they will not compromise on the promises that have not been implemented, say that they will not return until the government resolves the issue of Swargadwari Guthi. The police dharpadak on Babarmahal Bridge on the 30th day of the sit-in also indicates that the sit-in is not quiet, but loud.

Guthi land is land set aside by the state and members of wealthy families to generate some income for religious or charitable work. Farmers who worked as Mohis in that land used to feed Guthi and earn a living. Some farmers got Mohiani right after acquiring land, but the story of Swargadwari guthipidi farmers is different. They never received landholdings, but continued to earn land. He could not trade, nor mortgage, but kept paying and living like a poor man.

Dang's Swargadwari Guthipidit kept thinking of himself as a caged bird for years, who could not call the land he cultivated all his life 'his'. Even though the agreement with the government was not implemented many times, he did not stop dreaming of owning the land.

Basuram Chowdhury (71), who has not stopped dreaming, has been waiting for the government with a placard on the cold streets of Kathmandu for one and a half months. Like him, 100 aggrieved farmers who came from Dang to tell the government about their grievances are protesting at Maitighar in Kathmandu. And, they stay at night in a Dharamshala in Gaushala. Basuram was found in Dharamshala on a cloudy day in February. When it was cold in Kathmandu, he missed Dang's house, he missed his children and family.

After seeing the thick snow in the city, he remembered the crops he had planted in the land under Guthi. What happened to that crop? Did Tusaro eat it?', turning to the cold air mixed with water particles from the window panes, while thinking like this, he called the village many times and kept searching for news of crops. Basuram said, "We have done farming on that land, our ancestors lived there for generations, our forefathers have made that land grow and grow," Basuram said, "We farmers have taken care of the land, but we fell into injustice because we did not get ownership." I have become old, now my children would get justice, I have come in this cold for their justice. We came to Kathmandu after we demanded ownership of the land we plowed ourselves, but were not given it, and never completed the contract. Instead, we will die, we will not return home without fulfilling the demand.' In order to build, operate or protect a road, ghat, bridge, chautara, gaucharan, garden, forest, library, school, dispensary, hospital, house, building or institution, a donor should also remember the Guthi who has given up his rights in his movable immovable property or any other property or money that comes in the way. Bigha land is being plowed under Guthi. However, the ownership of that land is in the name of Swargadwari Guthi. Fed up with that situation, the farmers came back to Kathmandu in anger. They get assurances, they return to the village, the assurances are not fulfilled, they come back to Kathmandu with more demands. 

Guthipidit, Birtapidit, squatters and landless farmers also sit dharna at the main party office of Nepal on the call of National Bhoomi Adhikar Manch - on 7th May 2064. After a few days of dharna, some parties issued a press release and a letter of commitment on May 11. The idea of ​​all those parties was that land reform should be done on the basis of the policy of 'whose land is his vessel'.

parties also kept giving assurances, but kept forgetting after coming to power. Guthipidis are also angry that the party's promise of 'getting land' to the landless farmers has not been fulfilled.

The then General Secretary of Nepal Communist Party (UML) Madhav Kumar Nepal, Office Secretary of Nepal Communist Party (Maoist) Sriram Dhakal, then General Secretary of Nepal Communist Party (Marxist-Leninist) CP Mainali, General Secretary of Jana Morcha Nepal Ghanshyam Sharma Paudyal, Kamu Chief Secretary of Nepali Congress Shobhakar Parajuli signed the commitment letter and press release to help address the demands of landless farmers. Many agreements were made between the government and the farmers. Last year (from February 7, 2080 to 1 month), the farmers were on a long protest, in Dang. Even then, the government had an agreement with the farmers.

When will the land problem be addressed? Land Management, Cooperatives and Poverty Alleviation Minister Balram Adhikari says, 'Now the Prime Minister has directed to make 11 new laws. We are also drafting the Land Act. We are implementing the Land Act - 2021, Land (Measurement Check) Act - 2019. However, this did not solve the problem of the people. We free the landless from this problem forever by making them landowners. We are working to make the people the owners of the land.

...

Mohi farmers of Swargadwari Guthi are now legally landless. That's why they hang a garland around their necks every day while sitting on dharna at Maitighar Mandala. That is the rosary – the jewel they have. That is currently not working. The reason for this is the order of the Supreme Court on Chait 14, 2062.

The joint bench of the Supreme Court said, 'According to the will of Mahaprabhu expressed in the 1996 copperplate, the Ashram should be run by disciple trainers and as it is a private Guthi of a special nature protected by the Government and the Guthi Sansthan, there should be no interference in such a way as to harm the autonomy of the Ashram, and the land registered in the name of the Swargadwari Ashram should not be fragmented and embezzled in any way so that the work of Yagya is not disrupted.

That order was issued in the name of the Ministry of Land Reforms and Management and Guthi Institute Central Office. According to Jagat Deuja, an agriculturist, after the decision made by Judge Ram Prasad Shrestha and Damodar Prasad Sharma, even the mohi rights of farmers have been taken away. A simple law should be made and the land that is being cultivated by farmers should be registered in the name of the farmer. Only this can pacify the agitated farmers,” he says.

This problem has 12 mauzas (Zhigaura, Dhoreni, Paddha, Nainwar, Rampur, Palase, Uchanimbu, Arnhawa, Chailahi, Surkedangi, Shahipur and Vangaon) in Dang district alone. About 16,000 people of 3,500 families live in it. Even when the problem is so big, the government does not show interest, instead the farmers themselves become active and listen to the government saying, 'Let's not leave this problem, let's solve it'. Farmers who have to work in agriculture and production are forced to agitate sometimes in the hot sun and sometimes in cold streets, says Lam Bahadur Darzi, president of the National Land Rights Forum, Nepal. "This is causing great injustice to the farmers," says Chairman Darzi.

On June 9, 2071, a 9-point agreement was reached between the Ministry of Land Reforms and Management and the National Land Rights Forum. In point 6 of the agreement, it was said that the ministry will form a study team to solve the problems of different types of Guthi lands in different districts including Sindhupalchok, Palpa, Nuwakot and Haku gauis of Rasuwa district and take the initiative to solve the problem and start the study and investigation from Haku gauis of Rasuwa district and play a role in reviewing the decision of the Supreme Court regarding Guthi Raitani.

In May 2076, as soon as the then Minister of Land Management, Cooperatives and Poverty Alleviation Padmakumari Aryal registered the 'Bill to consolidate and amend the Guthi Laws, 2075' in the National Assembly for discussion, the government has not yet been able to resume the bill, which was stopped after the Guthiyars protested in Kathmandu Valley.

Praveen Dahit, joint secretary of Swargadwari Guthipidit Sangharsh Samiti, who is also the coordinator of the ongoing movement in Kathmandu, says, "We became squatters because of Guthi." It is not that we do not have land, but according to the current law, we are landless. We have done farming, livelihood is also going on, but there are no parts. In today's era, not having land means that there is no property, that's why we are saying to the government, there is land, but there is no land. Give the parcel of land. We will pay the government annual. '
