There were many of them, working in coordination with each other with the same objective. No single organization, group, or a few people could have caused so much destruction.
There have been many public discussions on the Bhadra 23 Gen-G movement to end the rampant corruption in the country and the Bhadra 24 demolition by infiltrators. However, some issues have yet to be adequately debated.
‘Intelligence Failure’
The lack of any information about the fact that this level of participation is taking place and that widespread destruction may occur after the infiltration has completely failed the Intelligence Department. However, the political leadership is also to blame for this, not only now, but since 2048. Because like many other state institutions, they have made the Intelligence Department a place to employ their people and engage in political interference, which has resulted in this institution becoming so paralyzed.
Even if the Intelligence Department had given a correct report, the political leadership has not taken it seriously. It is clear from the press conference held by the army on Asoj 31 and from Oli himself’s statements that the political leadership led by the then Prime Minister KP Sharma Oli took the ‘threat’ of the movement very lightly.
If the Intelligence Department is to be made professionally efficient, this country will have to make a lot of effort, investment and wait. In this context, the internal ‘intelligence’ of the parties has failed. The children of the country know that there is great dissatisfaction and anger among the general public, don't the leaders and activists of the people-based political parties know? If they did, shouldn't such dissatisfaction and anger be addressed politically while there is still time? That would not have given immediate results to pacify the Bhadra 23 movement. However, at least security preparations could have been made efficiently.
Gen-G movement
Whatever former Prime Minister KP Oli or former Home Minister Ramesh Lekhak say - even as a last resort, the government's unforgivable crime of killing a large number of protesters by shooting them in the head and chest, even as a last resort, is prima facie an unforgivable crime. An inquiry commission has been formed to find out the truth and recommend action in this matter, let it find out the truth.
Bhadra 24 Destruction: Natural Outrage or Planned Game? There is a saying that the anger over the barbaric repression of the Gen-G movement of 23 exploded in the form of arson, vandalism and looting nationwide on 24. Those who made such statements are mostly people affiliated with some parties sitting on the opposition bench of the then House of Representatives.
Knowingly or unknowingly, their statements were motivated by political motives. A section of the victims of repression also holds such a belief, which should be considered as expressing their pain. This statement is partially true, not entirely. The complete truth is that even if there had not been that level of repression the day before, the infiltrator group calling itself 'Gen-G' and wreaking havoc would have continued on 24. Because it had been planned and prepared even before the incident of 23.
If the anger over the barbaric repression of 23 had exploded in the form of destruction on 24, only the residences and means of transport of the ruling leader who decided to suppress, the offices of the district magistrate who implemented that decision, and the police offices would have been set on fire. More and more, the residences of some leaders of the ruling party or their party offices were vandalized. The Supreme Court and other special district and high courts, which had nothing to do with that repression, were not selectively set on fire. The businesses and houses of thousands of businessmen who had no connection with the police action of
23 were not burned, vandalized and looted. The list could be long. There are thousands of locals who, even though they were scared, tell us that a group of strangers who did not know the locals came to their neighborhoods and went door to door saying, 'See so-and-so's house' and vandalized and set fire to them.
Why on the 24th?
Because such destruction could not be done without any movement or protest. Those who tried to do it would not have succeeded, they would have been arrested. The unnecessary, cruel and senseless government repression of the 24th Gen-G movement provided that opportunity to the vandals. They seized that opportunity. The question may also arise as to how it was possible to do such a big job the day after the 23rd incident.
The saboteurs knew very well that there was widespread dissatisfaction and anger among the people, which could be transformed into violent resistance, and this was the Gen-G movement. The Gen-G movement had no leader, nor was there an organization to manage the movement. Connected only through social media, they did not know each other except for a few.
In such a situation, they also knew very well that it would not be difficult to easily infiltrate and wreak havoc among them by calling themselves ‘Gen-G’. The dialogue between them on the 24th and a few days before that through digital means also confirms this. The reporting of the exchange of thousands of ‘messages’ between them on the 23rd and 24th using an app called ‘Discord’ was published in ‘Kantipur’ on Kartik 2.
Now the question arises, who were they? There were many of them, who were working in coordination with each other with the same objective. A single organization, group, or a few people could not have caused so much destruction.
The often-assumed 'theory' of a conspiracy by foreign, especially 'geopolitical powers', sells well in our country. Everyone, including a commission of inquiry, must work to uncover the truth.
