Questions have been raised about the leadership of Gauri Bahadur Karki, the chairman of the Commission of Inquiry formed to investigate the material and human damage caused during the Gen-G movement and demonstration on August 23 and 24 in Kathmandu.

Before taking the leadership of the investigation committee, questions have been raised regarding the opinion that he made public on social media. Karki, who is also the former president and judge of the special court, held the opinion that those who suppressed the Gen-G movement should be brought to justice, investigated and should not be allowed to escape. How can a person who has formed an opinion before the formation of the commission act independently? The question has been raised. 

Netizens have raised questions by keeping a 'screen shot' of his views on social media.

Karki wrote on social media during the Gen-G movement, 'No one should be allowed to escape. There are rumors that KP Oli escaped by helicopter. Former Prime Minister KP Oli, Sher Bahadur Deuba, Pushpa Kamal Dahal Prachanda and other former ministers, MPs and officials should not be allowed to go abroad and escape. They should be detained and investigated. The airport should be closed. Private helicopters should not be allowed to operate. Indian and Chinese border should be closed.

Karki made this comment in the article published in Kantipur Dainik Patrika. Now social media users have questioned about Karki's pre-published opinion. Senior Advocate Tikaram Bhattarai argued that Gauri Bahadur Karki should resign immediately if the public fact is correct that Gauri Bahadur Karki had made a definite opinion before the formation of the commission. 

He suggested that whatever is written in the report will be controversial, so he should resign. "I want the brutal murder and planned arson to be investigated impartially and the person responsible should be punished," he said. The general principles of investigation have been destroyed.' 

Social media user Dadhiram Dhakal has defended saying that everyone has their own personal opinion. Everyone is free to express their personal opinion. Someone is not qualified to do research based on their personal opinion," he wrote, "Let's not bother to find a researcher without personal opinion. Let's not spread unrestrained propaganda to influence the investigation.'

The commission had banned five people including the then Prime Minister KP Sharma Oli and Home Minister Ramesh Oli from visiting foreign countries only on Sunday. It is said that they have to get permission from the commission to visit even outside the valley. Human Rights Alliance issued an appeal on Tuesday and questioned the impartiality of the commission.

"The public opinions expressed by the chairman of the commission for the impartial investigation of material and human damage during the demonstration by the Genji generation have raised serious questions about the commission's impartiality, so the Human Rights Alliance draws the attention of the Government of Nepal and related stakeholders to ensure the commission's impartiality", the Alliance said.

Alliance has also said that since the people who have been convicted of various crimes are still out of prison, peace and security have not been fully ensured. "When the nation is in this dire situation, there is a possibility that the cases of violation of human rights will increase, while ensuring human rights in the country, the Human Rights Alliance demands joint efforts to address the demands for change put forward by the Genji generation," said the appeal.

Similarly, Alliance has expressed interest in the statement issued by the Ministry of Home Affairs on October 9 that an inquiry commission has been formed for an impartial investigation of the material and human damage caused during the movement and that until the report of the commission is received, immediate action will not be taken by the regular mechanisms of the government, which will seriously affect the criminal justice system, and show clear signs of further condoning impunity and violence.

Despite all-round pressure to prosecute those involved in the repression of 23rd August and the destruction that took place on 24th, the government issued a statement saying that it will not take any action without the recommendation of the commission. Legal scholars and human rights activists demanded that the statement issued by the Ministry of Home Affairs be corrected as it would affect the criminal investigation. He also criticized the government's decision to stop

regular operations. They argued that impunity should not be prevented from taking action against those involved in vandalism and arson. The government has formed a three-member inquiry commission under the chairmanship of former judge Karki. Former Additional Inspector General of Nepal Police Vigyanraj Sharma and Bishweshwar Prasad Bhandari are members of the commission. But the chairman of this commission is questioning Karki.
