Kathmandu. Protests against Prime Minister KP Oli have been erupted after a violent clash in Kathmandu on Monday against corruption in Nepal and ban on social media. On the other hand, Jane-G is looking at Kathmandu Mayor Balendra Shah with a lot of eyes. After all, what is the reason for this?
Jane-G Kathmandu took to the streets of Kathmandu on Monday against corruption in Nepal and ban on social media. Police and security forces used force to control thousands of protesters. During this violent clash, 19 people died and hundreds were injured.
However, late Monday night, the government issued an order to restore social media sites to calm Jane-G, but despite this, the people of Nepal saw anger against the police and the government. He condemned police action.
Balendra Shah is being requested to resign from his post on social media and hold a new political party. After all, why Balendra Shah’s name suddenly came up in the midst of the ongoing turmoil in Nepal’s politics and why Jane-G is supporting him so much, let’s know this now.
Balendra Shah is also known as Balen in Nepal. Born on 27 April 1990 in Nardevi, Kathmandu, Balendra Shah, a Maithil origin, is a Nepali wrappers, civil engineer and 15th mayor of Kathmandu. In 2022, he became the subject of discussion in the media of India and abroad because an independent candidate in Kathmandu became the mayor for the first time.
In 2023, Time magazine included him in the list of top-100 emerging leaders. The New York Times has also praised his work.
Balen’s popularity is more especially among the youth, the reason for this is their youth and the work done in the public interest in Kathmandu. Whether it is cleaning roads and pavements or tightening tax evading private schools, he has created a immaculate image among the public with his work. People are also in support of his zero tolerance policy against corruption.
Mayor Balendra Shah supported the movement started on Facebook under the leadership of Jane-G. He said that this movement is of Jane-G and he became older. Therefore, he will not be involved in the movement, but the protesters have full support for them. He hopes that the movement will attract attention to both the restrictions on corruption and digital freedom.
After this, social media users came in support of him. People started demanding him to resign from the post of Mayor of Kathmandu, form a new political party and handle national leadership. They say that not now or never.
Balendra Shah has already opposed the Nepal government with his statements. Not only this, he has also spewed poison against India. While advocating Akhand Nepal, Balendra Shah once described the Nepal’s fierce government and the court as a slave of India. He refused to follow the permission of the High Court to show Om Raut’s film ‘Adipurush’ in theaters of Kathmandu.
Balendra had said that when it comes to the sovereignty and independence of his country, he will not accept any law. Balendra claimed that Sita has been called the daughter of India in ‘Adipurush’. Until this dialogue is removed from the film, he will not allow the film to run in Kathmandu, while Sita’s birth place is in Nepal.
