Congress leader Meinendra Rizal has commented that the government's policy of shutting down social media is like hitting the sun with the palm of your hand.

In a conversation with Kantipur, he said that the number of people downloading Virtual Private Networks (VPNs) has increased after shutting down social networks, which could lead to another risk. He said, 'It is not appropriate to block citizens from one way and push them to another. If that is what they are trying to do, Nepal does not have the administrative capacity to go that way, as China has controlled it. The gist of my statement is that shutting down social media is like hitting the sun with your palm. It is not appropriate to do this .' 

He said that he understands the challenges of social media and though there is a place to talk about business and other issues with social media platform operators through experts, the government intends to shut the mouth of people who abuse me. He said that the government is attacking messengers rather than listening to people's messages. Practically not likely . That is why the government has said that the 'virtual walls' that have been erected, can be broken 'virtually' by anyone. Media such as social media should not be closed .

He said that the government should not be used when angry and said that the social media should be kept open . Although he did not like the views expressed on social media, they  By punishing the means of expressing ideas  He said that the foundation of democracy cannot be strengthened. Said, 'Business should be addressed in a professional manner . Payable tax must be paid . If you have to register, you have to. But other excuses should not be used to stop people from expressing their freedom of expression and opinion. That would be wrong .
