The ‘epicenter’ of the movement, Maitighar.

It was around 1:30 pm on Sunday.

A drizzle was falling across the cloudy sky. In the same rain, Gen-G activists, wearing colorful umbrellas, were shouting slogans saying ‘Make the report public’.

‘Error 404: Justice not found, release the report’

‘Mallik, Rayamajhi, Lal and now Karki?’

‘Did you lose the complete report of the Karki Commission?’

They were holding placards and flexes with such slogans in their hands.

The light rain dispersed the crowd for a while. However, their demand was the same – ‘Make the report of the Karki Commission public.’

They had gathered at Maitighar to make the report of the inquiry commission formed to investigate the incidents of Bhadra 23 and 24 public. The rain continued to fall, but they did not stop. In a few moments, the scattered protesters gathered again and chanted slogans - 'Stop the politics of blood!'

'Khoi Khoi Report Khoi?'

'Make the Karki Commission report public!'

The rain stopped. The crowd became one voice again. Gen-G activist Majid Ansari, who was standing in the front row of the crowd, grabbed the 'megaphone'. He started chanting in rhythm - 'Citizen government!'

Those standing around replied - 'Yes mother!'

Then Ansari repeated - 'Karki Commission report!'

The crowd said - 'Yes mother!'

'Make it public!'

'Yes mother!'

Ansari asked again - 'Where is the report?'

But, this time 'Yes mother' was not heard.

A voice rose from the crowd at once - 'Ha… ha… ha!'

The slogan was repeated again and again.

After Ansari, Gen-G activist Urja Amit came forward from the next row. He again provoked the crowd 'Where is the report?'

'Make the Karki Commission report public!'

In this way, they were pressuring the commission to make the report public in a creative way. In the same crowd, Pradeep Gyawali, a central member of the National Independent Party, stood holding a placard that read 'Error 404: Justice Not Found, Release the Report'. Gyawali, who is at the forefront of the

Gen-G movement, said that the government should make the report public without any cuts. 'The government should make the detailed report on the incidents of Bhadra 23 and 24 public,' he told Kantipur. 'If it is not made public in full, another movement may be born. We were on the streets yesterday, we are still there today, and if the report is not made public, we will be on the streets tomorrow to ask questions.'

The Gen-G activists participating in the protest are worried that this report will also be suppressed like the previous commissions.  Facing west and holding placards in their hands, they had one demand - an impartial investigation report into the incidents of Bhadra 23 and 24.

Uma Khatri, 43, who participated in the silent protest, is not a 'Gen-G' by age. However, she also joined the demand for the commission's report to be made public impartially. Her 23-year-old son was shot in the arm and thigh during the Bhadra 23 protest. The police later arrested him and filed a case.

'My son was injured in the protest on the 23rd,' she said, 'On the 24th, he went to protest the killing of his friends, and that's when he was caught. The police have not been able to catch the culprit who committed the mistake, but my innocent son has been caught and taken away. What kind of justice is this?’

Sitting near Uma and holding a placard with the words ‘Hashtag No More Secret’, Gen-G activist Pema Wangmo expressed her suspicion that the report might include the names of some newly elected officials, suggesting that it might be manipulated. ‘We suspect that there is a game being played to manipulate it or to overshadow the main issue by introducing new issues as the names of some newly elected officials may appear in the report,’ she said.

She said that she was ready to take to the streets again if the report was not made public. ‘The foundation on which this government stands should respect the civil movement,’ she said. ‘If the report is not made public, the country may have to face another serious situation. We are not tired yet, we are ready to stay on the streets.’

Many participants in the protest are skeptical that the government will not make the full report public. Mohammad Nayim, 21, accused the government of trying to shelve the report, like previous commissions. “We supported the civilian government to ensure an impartial investigation,” he said. “If the report is hidden to protect leaders or activists of the new government, that will not be acceptable.”

Dalia Pathak, 19, is also worried that the report will be hidden. She said, sitting on the front row and chanting slogans, “It has become like ‘justice delayed is justice denied’ for the injured and dead in the September incident.” It is said that the report has been prepared and reached the Prime Minister's Office, but it is unfair to keep it in a closed room saying 'tomorrow-tomorrow'.'

She said that making only the main points public is not enough.' 'We need not just a summary, but a complete report,' she said, 'If we only release points, there is a risk of removing names with vested interests.'
