Mr. Mayank Mishra, “A student-led initiative in its entirety, JNU’s #FeeMustFall movement maintains a perpetual nonviolent character without a single stray incident of ferocity coupled with an ensemble of methods, efforts and strategies throughout to sustain the zeal and momentum of the mobilization.”

Ms. Aakriti Ghimire, “Nirmala Panta, Nirmala Kurmi and Nakunni Dhobi’s cases were consequences of the state’s political negligence. In the 2018 movement organized for Nirmala Panta, the state attempted at diverting the attention of the public proclaiming “a dawn of a new era” in Nepal, rolled out by then KP Oli government.”

Ms. Tamang, “In 2003, the Sikkim government announced a series of 26 hydro projects to be built along the river Teesta and its several tributaries for the purpose of developing territorial regions. The proposed construction of mega hydel project would thus not only destroy the sacred landscape, but also pollute the sanctity of the region by infiltrating of hundreds of migrants labours and harmful to the fragile ecosystem of Kanchendzonga National Park, a World Heritage Site in Dzongu.”

Dr. Mengnjo, “The nonviolent youth protests in Nepal across the aforementioned cities during the Covid-19 lockdowns were claimed to have been demonstrating demands for bringing improvements in the government’s perceived mishandling of the ongoing pandemic.”
