🇳🇵#Nepal: More than one year after the mass #protests that brought down the government, there has been lack of accountability for violations committed by the authorities.
#Journalists continue to be targeted for their reporting, with arrests, raids, harassment and attacks while critics remain at risk.

गत जेठमा बजेट सार्वजनिक गरेको सरकारले असोज २४ गते अर्को बजेट पनि सार्वजनिक गरेको छ, जसलाई अर्थ मन्त्रालयले ‘नागरिक बजेट’ नाम दिएको छ । ‘हाम्रो कर, हाम्रै बजेट, हाम्रै भविष्य’ नारा दिइएको उक्त बजेट कुनै नयाँ बजेट भने होइन ।

दिल्लीमा जनप्रदर्शनमाथि भएको क्रुर दमन, ईन्टरनेट बन्द,रेल वन्द,मेट्रो बन्द,हजारॅौ गिरफ्तारी जस्तो घटनाले भारतीय लोकतन्त्रको धज्जी उडाएको छ।
युवाहरु निर्वाचन आयोगको बदमासीका बिरुद्ध आन्दोलनमा उत्रिएका छन।तर मोदी सरकार आन्दोलनको आवाज सुन्नुको सट्टा क्रुर दमन गर्दैछ।
खेद छ !!
Continuing its support to flood affected #journalists, FF will cover school fees of #journalists Kalika Khadka & Tekraj Thami's daughter, who is studying in Grade IX, for the year 2083.
Khadka said the support is great relief for her daughter’s education.

श्री बालेन्द्र शाह सरकार गठन पछि सरकार सन्चालनका क्रममा नियुक्त सल्लाहाकार,बिज्ञ र सचिवालय सदस्यबारेको सूचना मागेकोमा प्रधानमन्त्री कार्यालय,गृह मन्त्रालय र सन्चार मन्त्रालयबाट छिटै सम्वोधन भै केही सूचना प्राप्त भयो।
अरु मन्त्रालयहरुबाट पनि सूचनाको हकको शिघ्र सम्मान हुने आशा छ।

लोकतन्त्र राजनीतिक प्रणालीभन्दा बढी व्यावहारिक आचरण हो ।
फरक विचार सुन्न सक्ने सत्ता,असहमति स्विकार्न सक्ने दल,आलोचना सहन सक्ने नेता र स्वतन्त्रतालाई जिम्मेवारीसँग जोड्न सक्ने नागरिक बनेपछि मात्र लोकतन्त्र जीवित हुन्छ।- Tekendra Joshi
