Commemorating the black day: Magh 19
Today is the black day for Nepali democracy and press freedom. 2 years back, on this very day King Gyanendra coup the democracy and started his absolute rule. He imposed state of emergency and all basic rights were curtailed. All phone lines, internet, all means of communications were cut down. Media were raided. We were forced to live as animal who doesn't know what's going on. He promised peace, prosperity and democracy but only in his address or papers.
Like this we lived for more than years. Finally April Uprising woke him form his surreal dreams. Every one of us participated directly or indirectly in the revolution. We showed the world we are for democracy not for any form of autocracy or plutocracy. Our continuous seek for democracy was fruited. And now we are in today's state. May be every dream is not achieved yet, but at least we are in right way to get it. We are free. So let's mark this black day as history and hope no one in the globe has to see such days again. Man is born free and he wishes to be free. Let's be united against such autocracy and support democracy and free press.
