The government's suppression of the Gen-G movement has been made clear by the human losses it has caused. Seventy-four people have died in the two-day incident, while around 200 are still in the hospital. The records of the police's weapons store have also revealed the fact that the barbaric suppression by the police during the 23rd August protest and the arson and looting that took place on the second day were horrific.

According to the internal details prepared by the Nepal Police, 1276 rifles/pistols have been looted. Likewise 98 thousand 4  One hundred and ninety-one bullets have not been recorded. Among them, a high-level commission of inquiry has become indispensable to reveal how many of them were carried out by the police themselves and how many were looted. 

Similarly, 1,315 rounds of rubber bullets have gone down in the archives. The police has not been able to reveal how many of them have been used. In two days, 2,220 aerial fire and 32,23 tear gas shells were fired by the police.

Outgoing Prime Minister KP Sharma Oli, who came out of power due to the Gen-G rebellion, claimed in a statement released on Friday on Constitution Day that 'Gen-G protest was infiltrated and automatic weapons not with the police fired'. Oli, who was in command of the country at that time, claimed that the security personnel did not have such weapons, while the state did not investigate the weapons used by the security personnel in the repression, the evidence found at the scene and the perpetrators of the repression. 

Security personnel with lethal weapons should be kept as 'reserve force' and forces with non-lethal equipment should be mobilized. But the government has been deploying police and armed police on the streets with both lethal and non-lethal equipment. There have been many reports in the Nepali media that security personnel working on the roads do not have non-lethal equipment. The security organizations have also been warning time and time again. But the government has not bought such non-lethal weapons in the last 10 years. During this period, Oli has been the prime minister four times. 

The police have been continuously 'begging' the government for the purchase of non-lethal equipment for the last 10 years. Last year also, it offered to buy 8,800 units of 'riot control gear', 24,000 rounds of tear gas, 100,000 rounds of blank fire, 200,000 rounds of rubber bullets, 2,000 units of smoke-throwing hand grenades and 5,000 rounds of multi gas gun cells. 

Similarly, the armed police, who are employed in border security, crowd control, patrolling, disaster management, etc., proposed to the House to ensure the necessary budget for non-lethal and technical equipment. However, these equipments were not procured for both the security agencies.

Nepal's security agencies do not have enough essential equipment such as riot control gear, tear gas, blank fire, rubber bullets, bolty gas guns, water cannons, fire engines, and ambulances for crowd control.

Instead, Nepal Police has been providing small arms such as 54-Chinese pistol (small), 9 mm Chinese pistol (large), 9 mm USA pistol, 9 mm Beretta pistol and 7.6 revolver to be carried in the field by Asai and above personnel in peacekeeping and performance management. Apart from this, they are being deployed in the field with large weapons such as INSAS and SLRs to be carried by jawans and constables. Apart from pistols and large weapons, the government has not paid attention to the fact that non-lethal equipment should be adequately managed for peaceful demonstrations.

54 – Chinese pistol (small) capacity – 7 rounds, it is used for self-defense and short range shooting. Similarly, the 9mm Chinese pistol (large) has a capacity of 15 rounds. Semi-automatic in fire mode, this weapon can be fired at a distance of 50 meters. The 15 round capacity 9SM USA pistol also has a range of up to 50 meters. 

Similarly, the Italian 9 mm Beretta pistol with 15 rounds can be fired up to 50 meters away. The 7.6 mm double action revolver has a capacity of 6 rounds and can shoot up to 30 meters. The semi-automatic Indian Small Arm System (INSAS) has a capacity of 30 rounds and can target up to 400 meters. 

A similar 20-round capacity semi-automatic self-loading rifle (SLR) can target up to 800 meters away, which was used in Baneshwar during the Gen-G movement. 

For the current year 2082/83, a budget of 1 billion 90 million was allocated to buy weapons for the police, when Oli was the prime minister and Ramesh Akbar was the home minister, they tried to buy lethal weapons. The procurement regulations were also amended so that lethal weapons can be purchased through the same process by reviving the contract that was suspended three years ago. The process was halted after the matter came to the media. But the budget has not been allocated for the purchase of weapons for the armed forces this year as well. 

Due to the lack of non-lethal equipment to control the crowd and riots, the police are repeatedly using more force to control the situation. Birendra Shah of Acham and Sujan Rawat of Dailekh were killed by police firing at Balkumari in Lalitpur while the youth who were sitting for the Korean language exam were taking control of the protest. The government was criticized for using excessive force to control the demonstration. 

On 20th December 2008, local youth Jaishankar Sah was killed when the police used lethal force while controlling the demonstration in Sarlahi's Barhathwa. Savin Maharjan of Kirtipur lost his life in the three-corner protest on 15 Chait after being shot by the police. Avenues Television journalist Suresh Rajak was found dead in a burning house after the crowd could not be controlled. 

Most of the 21 people who were killed by the police on the first day of the Gen-G demonstration had been shot in the chest and head, it has been confirmed from the post-mortem report of the University Teaching Hospital. Security personnel armed with deadly weapons like INSAS, SLRs were heavily deployed to protect the demonstration. The Special Task Force (STF) team of the police assigned to protect the Federal Parliament building near the demonstration area was also assigned with INSAS and SLR rifles of higher capacity.

As non-lethal weapons are not supplied as per the demand of the security agencies, lethal force is being used in public demonstrations. Some of the equipment has already expired. The police also used excessive lethal force to control the royalist demonstration on March 15, and also used expired equipment. However, the government did not take the question raised at that time seriously. Because of this, young students have been killed by lethal force even in the Jen-Ji rebellion.

Former administrator Janakraj Dahal, who has also been the chief district officer of Kathmandu, says that the chief district officer who took overall command of security could not make a strategy after correctly assessing the situation and the police deployed in the field lost their discretion/professionalism and said that the brutal suppression of youth and students in Baneshwar. His analysis is that the protocol of the use of force was not followed and he was repressed with deadly force at once. 

"There is a protocol for the use of force, for this protocol the Prime Minister, the Home Minister and no one else need to give orders/instructions, the district security commander is Prazia, the Prazia will assess the situation from the security mechanism and make a strategy," says Dahal, "but the demonstration was underestimated, the level of dissatisfaction was not understood, the demonstration without leadership was considered as a normal situation. Dam-Dam students were killed on the streets, no matter how much we condemn this barbaric oppression.' During vandalism, arson and looting, 1100 police weapons were stolen. Loaded weapons are also missing, which continues to pose a challenge to public safety. 

19 youth-students were killed by the barbaric repression of the police only in the peaceful protest of 23rd August called by the 'Gen-G' generation to alert the government with demands including corruption control. In opposition to that, the number of protesters, security personnel and others have died in the violence that broke out across the country including Kathmandu on August 24. When the violence broke out during the demonstration, not only human, but also unimaginable material losses had to be incurred.

Now questions have been raised about the weak security strategy adopted by the home administration and the lethal force used to control the peaceful demonstration that started from Maitighar-Baneshwar area. In the past, since the change in the system, why did the police fail this time when various groups protested against the government? Why was lethal force used against demonstrators indiscriminately? The police administration has been criticized because of these questions. 

After the announcement of the Gen-G movement, the political leadership of the government did not take any initiative to listen to and address the demands of the youth. Who is the organizer? Who has taken the lead? What is the format of the program? How many participants can be, what to do in case of vandalism and arson? Home administration failed to assess these issues. Because the home administration failed to make a proper strategy for threat assessment, preparedness and manpower management, it immediately instructed to use deadly force, so much damage has been caused. 

Former AIG of Police Pradyuman Karki says that when the government mobilized the security agencies in a proactive manner, the results also came accordingly. "Since years ago, the police wanted non-lethal security equipment, the current provision is not enough, they say that the police should be equipped with non-lethal equipment instead of lethal, but who will listen?" Everything is public. AIG Karki said that the protocol of use of lethal force was not followed in the Gen-G movement. "Force has been used in such a way as to take lives at once, it is unfortunate, there was a serious mistake in security strategy and operation and management," he said.

On the first day of the Gen-G demonstration, the police could not manage the crowd in Baneshwar, due to which the crowd broke the security cordon and tried to enter the federal parliament building. After that, security personnel of the special task force of the police stationed to protect the parliament shot the protestors in the chest and head. Apart from INSAs, SLRs, the police stationed in Parliament also use other deadly weapons including M-16. 

Former AIG Karki says that the use of force from inside the Parliament building cannot be considered correct in any way. On the one hand, the crowd moving from the electricity market in Baneshwar area should have stopped before reaching Everest Hotel. After that, teams should have been deployed layer by layer from 5/7 barricades, the police and the administration have failed in this," he says, "by making a strategy, which is the last point of the protestors, equipment including water tanks, barricades and another layer of security should have been built there. Yes.' 

Former administrator Dahal Jen-G says it is clear that the use of force on the day of the demonstration was not done according to protocol. Micking to manage the crowd? Is it a method of arrest and chase to disperse the crowd? Which route to pursue for this? Which place will be kept under security fence? Is this strategy? If that doesn't work, they will use sticks, then water cannons, air fire, rubber bullets, shrapnel, and if that doesn't work, deadly force will be used to prevent death," he says. "This type of protocol was not followed, the police repressed the protestors to the point of taking their lives, and the destruction that took place the next day resulted in unimaginable damage." He said that when the sensitivity, professionalism and discretion of the police are lost, such unpleasant incidents will occur.

Federal capital, state capital, metropolis and sub-metropolis, urban areas, highways and other places based on risks and challenges have been proposed by both security agencies to remove equipment including water cannons and fire control devices. Even in the Gen-G movement, water fountains were able to control the crowd before using lethal force, but there was a lack of sufficient water cannons. 

In the arson following the suppression of the previous day and the violence that erupted the next day in opposition to it, there was a lack of fire extinguishers and water cannons even to put out the fire in the buildings/structures of the Singh Darbar, the Supreme Court, the Parliament Building, the President's House, the Prime Minister's residence, the police barracks, communications, other industries/institutions and private buildings/structures. If these equipment is sufficient, it is analyzing the analysis of the situation in which some building / structure is preserved. Although there are all buds in receiving security materials in the past year, it is not attentive to the non-minimal device.
