As a Tibetan, I lived in Nepal during those political turmoil. From vantage point the entire coup was a classic case of Orwell’s “The Animal Farm”. My wish was thats Dalit and Indigenous communities would not involve in political mess as I knew it wouldn’t benefit them an ounce. Sadly they were peddled in the forefront of the movement. A mix of backlogs of classic Hindu Bahuns use of Dalits & indigenous communities to establish another Bahun dominance - I went back to Nepal in 2022 & was surprised to learn that - From the inception of referendum in Nepal, Nepal hasn’t seen a single Prime Minister from a Dalit or Indigenous communities. On positive note I saw more people from marginalized communities stepping forward, making marks - but the path moving forward won’t be easy for marginalized people as the merging of Bahuns from Nepal & Brahmins from India seem to align ideologically in establishing Nepal back to Hindu Nation. That will push Nepal back to square 1.

Now Our country is on full Democracy but its worst than Monarchy. Young people are migrating to foreign lands. Government is corrupted in every level and sector. Very sad No solution 😢. Help Nepal.
Who gave Democracy to Nepal in 1950: India Where did all the political parties of Nepal born: India Who created Maoist and civil war in Nepal: India Who massacred Royal family of Nepal: India Who and Where did the 12 point peace agreement happened: Delhi Who blocks the border in Nepal(1975, 1989, 2015) when it's interest are not acknowledged: Delhi For sure, nothing happens in Nepal without the acknowledgement from Delhi DURBAR..............
Surely the outcomes of revolution were not ideal but Maoist armed rebellion is the major reason for the rights and mainstreaming of marginalized and backward communities, indigenous ethnicities, dalits. These privileges folks whining about the revolution don’t even know how difficult it was for dalits, madhesis back in the days, what cultural and linguistic discrimination indigenous people had to face. As a someone from indigenous community, i will always be grateful to the Maoist rebels and their revolutionary ideas.
Ghanta,they were looters,nowadays alot of discrimination increased and no dalit were ministers during 3 times maoist government 😂 after being so called republic . Even Maoist leader Parchanda is brahman😂.they are agents of CIA and RAW
You seriously think all the youth leaving the country is good? I am against the discrimination system that we have but surely with time it would have improved but now look at us. In 10 years nepalese schools will have no students
Are you sure that discrimination has been eradicated in our country now ? You can only eliminate it with education and social awareness. The Maoist party can't accomplish anything even after killing so many people. Now they only care about their position in government they have always taken part in government since they came to peace. They got a full majority in 1st election after coming in peace but they behaved like autocracy king.
@@maheshkatwal7680 no I don’t think youth leaving country is good. You think it was only due to Maoist rebellion that youths started to leave country?? Nepal has long history of people leaving their homes in search of better opportunities. Nepalese use to go to abroad, mostly India to work during the monarchy, even before the Ranas. Where do you think the words “Muglan”, “Lahure” came from? Surely government (no matter maoist, uml or congress) never did enough to improve the economy, education, etc. But the way people just blame Maoist rebellion for everything and undermine the positive impact on Nepalese society, especially for those voiceless marginalized and discriminated group is not right.
Now the Nepali people have their hands on the head with despair. Many are fleeing the nation at an unprecedented amount. Even the previous maoist fighters are saying : what was all this for? we were tricked.
After the Monarchy was abolished, Nepal became a playground for all the political parties. Everyone wanted a peace of it. Unfortunately, that's still the case. We are being ruled by the same primitive people who were fighting against Monarchy. I have never supported killing people in the name of revolution and never will. I do not see Dr. Baburam and Prachanda as leaders of Nepal. Nor, that I like opposing parties for different reasons. Being said that, Nepal's fate could have changed drastically after the revolution but it all went downhill pretty quickly. To be fair, the majority of the people knew, they knew the "leaders" who were fighting against Monarchy weren't competent enough to carry forward. But, the hope was still there which later turned into disappointment. In all this, international governments and organisations are heavily involved, especially India but that's not up for public knowledge nor will be.
What can be said about a country like Nepal, whose economy relies heavily on agriculture, remittances, and tourism? The education system lacks quality, and there is minimal effort toward developing tourism or fostering innovation and manufacturing. The country remains dependent on imported goods, including basic necessities like food, clothing and consumer goods, which is unsustainable and detrimental to long-term growth. About 60-65% of Nepal's population is engaged in agriculture, yet it contributes less than 30% to the GDP, nearly 25-30% of Nepal's GDP comes from remittances
Once Lenin said to peoples in a crowd, why you live poor under the czar, live poor under us, same thing happened, one king gone many king came, but ordinary peoples life is same, hyperinflation, corruption all
King Gyanendra was great king❤ king always love the country but now we neplease people are suffereing from political parties and politicians. We people are suffering from proverty , un employment , corruption , infrastructure of development is very very slow 😢.. so, we need our king again ❤ we need monarchy again.. please king return back and save our country. ❤😢
Maoist Leader life have changed drastically but other 's life getting more difficult than before.... agree or disagree this is true.They dethroned 1 king and lamentably created 1000's of kings. Political party destroyed our beloved country Nepal 🇳🇵
How maiost form and behind death of king?? During a visit to Nepal, Sonia Gandhi wanted to explore the entire Pashupatinath Temple. However, the guru did not allow her to enter the main gate due to her non-Hindu background and consumption of beef, although her husband, Rajiv Gandhi, was permitted. Rajiv requested an exception from the guru and temple authorities, but they remained firm. Later, Rajiv spoke with King Birendra, who explained that the temple was not under government control and suggested he speak to the guru, who was primarily from India. Frustrated and angry, Rajiv returned to India. A few days later, the Indian government imposed a blockade on Nepal, severely impacting its economy. This situation fueled both sides' egos, leading to a significant plan to undermine the monarchy and the Hindu state. They supported the formation of various rebel groups against the monarchy, including the Maoist rebels, providing them with funding and weapons. The Indian government at that time, particularly the RAW and the Congress party, played a crucial role in the events leading to the king's death.
I have massive respect for Shah dynasty who unified Nepal and kept us proud and sovereign while the rest of asia suffered from colonialism. If they correct a few of their flaws, I would be willing to support the re-instatement of monarchy in Nepal. 1. Remove Paras Shah from succession. 2. Encourage young royals to marry outside their castes. Casteism is THE weakest link for Nepal and royals marrying outside their ethnic group would be a solid role model for the people.
Thank you💐 CNA insider that you people Potrayed Nepal History beautifully.This documentation of Nepal more than decade long struggle of todays present leader sounds rellevant for that time span. I request you, please also document the recent political, development,peace,economy reality scenerio of Nepal. It would be easy for us to navigate where do we stand today.🇳🇵
The people who are saying that monarchy is not needed in Nepal and monarchy hasn't do anything for nepal, first of all you guys need to read our history how many years the kings have ruled nepal in their absolute monarchy power, they haven't ruled nepal all of their 250 year's, and look the period they have ruled well is the golden era of nepal. And it's not only the pm who runs the country but the presidential thorne also either it was king or president
@@chaalllaaann8294 it is is very normal for life to change when time proceeds forward. And yeah their life has changed because now their sons are in gulf countries, throwing their life away to just live a bare minimum .

My uncle who fought in maobadi andolan and was shut by bullet is now working in saudi arab because of unemployment.. he calls that (fighting in andolan) as his biggest mistake of life.. in fact he don't want to remember those days.. because everything they were promised to drag them into war.. nothing is fulfilled... they sold them fake dream of making Nepal Singapore in 10 years but.. still Nepal is poorest country in south asia.
Democracy has done little to benefit the people when the so-called 'elected representatives' focus solely on personal wealth and power. The country remains poor, with Nepal's progress stagnating, marked by low GDP and HDI. Unemployment is widespread, and many are leaving the country in search of education, work, and a better future, as they see no prospects at home
Such a shame. I remember once the PM of Nepal in his official visit was received in India by a junior Officer. The respect to the country is shattered when a naxal with Maoist agenda could overthrow the great country of Nepal. The country is still impoverished and backward. All the youths fleeing the country to work as a daily waged laborer in Middle East. The little changes you see in rural part of nepal with CGI roof is Middle East impact. But this will not take the country anywhere. I feel very sorry for Nepal. Love from Bhutan.
So everything started from Idea of this guy Baburawan bhattrai and collaboration with India, India provided them shelter and weapons and funds to fuel the war. Shame onto indian government who were not happy with Royal Families.
That's was good for the country to move towards democratic state, but what about the 17000 people family who have died due to this war. You think democracy brings development, then why is nepal still developing a country 🤦🏻 the work done by His Majesty is still running the county 🤔 making building, which is not only development. You are developing yourself rather then developing country 😢😢😢
I only wish that King Gyanendra had not left his throne. What would have been the fate of this country? Tremendous respect for him. Therefore, he will be the people's king forever, except for some political badass.
Those who were speaking knows the truth what had happened during that night. They know what they have to speak infront of camera. I think these jokers are the best actor because they acted in such a way the truth is hidden in a natural way. Better eat stool than be such rascals.
The characters that have spoken here are the designer of the state that Nepal is in. Most of the planning never took this nation interest to heart. It was initiated by those interested to pacify, promote foreign agenda and look relevant to service they were under. Whole Maoist agenda was misguided but they colluded with agents anti-thesis to their core values which they sold to vulnerable population who were slaughtered. The bottom line is Nepal is no better than it was and now even its existence is an open question.
DIVIDE AND RULE : INDIA, the main director behind all the events that has happened in Nepal after 1950........NEPALESE KING, POLITICAL PARTIES and MAOIST were and are still just the Chess Pieces for INDIA to play the GAME the way they want...........
The revolution is now successful 😢maoist rebel top leaders are now living standard life.wearing branded clothes and accessories 😢.involved in gold , Human smuggling as refugee to developed countries😢 as well as thier son,daughters studying and living abroad .ther families near and dear ones are enjoying different giverment position and earning healthy income😢long live our king and queen 🙏
With each revolution comes a mix of progress and pain, and whether it was right or wrong is open to individual interpretation. So, to answer the question "Was the violence necessary?" - Certainly not. But when asking, "Would other alternatives have guaranteed the same outcome?" - we simply don't know. And to still have some sympathy for the monarchy is understandable as it represented a long-standing institution deeply embedded in nepal's cultural and historical identity. But the fact is that monarchy was not the best rule for the Nepalese and will never be. The sayings goes "The only alternative to democracy is democracy itself"
Democracy is neither best nor worse. Each system of governance tries to fill the gap created by another but always ends up creating another gap. Additionally, I won't call that movement a REVOLUTION when the "revolted" one exert power on innocents. I'm no admirer of monarchy either but you look naive calling out democracy a better system of governance than others. Which it's clearly not.
Through Peaceful Protest like Mathatma Gandhi Can't you get Democracy? All country protest and massive rally against nepal monarchial and huge protest should have been enough to pressurized king and demolished monarchy system. Democracy is very important in all country . Currently , we will support monarchy if only leader is educated , ambitious , smart like Balen Shah , Rabi Lamichhane.
Even though their ideology might be corrupted & irrelevant now, But initially they did what every citizen frustrated from the system dreams of & to be able to make it possible seems unimaginable & remarkable, but after Democracy "Power tends to corrupt, and absolute power corrupts absolutely." Everyone struggles for power after they get a taste of it. But Ideologies changes with needs along time & so should the "System". The System might always fail but the Country shouldn't.
As per my understanding, maoists did have some positive impacts in the life of backward and marginalized people in the beginning but foreign powers wanted their puppet leaders in Nepal. They killed the king and his family as the Royal Family was an obstacle to those foreign powers. Later they used maoist leaders as their puppets to influence the development of constitution in Nepal but things didn't go as per their plan and they started changing their support from maoist to other parties. Corruption, mismanagement and political instability has destroyed the country and sadly most of the maoist fighters who fought at the ground level are working in Gulf countries under strict Monarchy.
After this revolution alot of change has been shown but corruption had increased drastically...natra tw even the naive kathmandu kaa manchey 1990 samma chyatya luga lagaunu parni isthiti thyo but ahile testo tw chaina....change ajhai hunu chha we are in the phase of changing
Although the initial intentions of the Maoist movement may have seemed well-meaning, they failed to remain steadfast in their principles, and as a result, look at where they have led our country today. It pains me deeply to see how we, as a nation, have faltered.
We jst want an efficient economy..social integrity with the concept of sustainable development and peaceful coexistence with the globe.and this seems difficult with the current system.
Looking at the current situation in nepal . it doesn't matter whether there is monarchy or democracy . From top to bottom there is corruption and all youths are flying aboard for their future . Unemployment is at it's peak , many degree holders are unemployed in nepal , there's nothing to say about those who doesn't has degree and has not any educational background. Political parties are just fighting for the power and chair each and everyday in their political career . We have prime minister who has a kidney failure and got replaced few years ago . instead of dying or taking retirement he has become prime minister of our country . As of right now he is building his new party office instead of helping peoples who was affected by flood.
Let’s elect the good people in democracy. The system of monarchy can not be imagined in todays world because we all are liberated to become the president and pm of Nepal if we desire. A kid living in any corner of Nepal can imagine to become the president or pm of Nepal. This is democracy. So far, we have elected wrong people. For example, after constitution was promulgated, OLi was not supposed to become the Pm knowing that he is zero about how to lead modern Nepal. Now Balen is coming. Many more are about to come. The Nepal’s history about Monarchy- their system, their authority and all- they never thought People they only took advantage of the the poverty, illiteracy and innocence to reign over them. Maoist dismantled and brought this system and with out becoming sentimental, let’s support modern political system. Let’s advance the system. Let’s go for the directly elected system. Monarchy could not develop the country over 240 years and we can not blame republican state within 15 years. We have better days ahead.
Under this system Balen will never be a PM.They will not allow.You need to be a member of political party.You know what they do to an emerging opposing party
Looking at these achives and trying to comprehend how these leaders were looking and talking back then, I wonder where is the change ? the masses raising the slogans with guns are pushed down even beyond the boundaries for cheap labours, leaders are still fighting, many tainted with both money and moral corruption. nothing much changed except few social reforms which i believe was anyway on the way without or without this bloodbath.
Please use Nepali instead of Nepalese which is also official decision by Government of Nepal on 2021 for use of Nepali by all instead of Nepalese in order to promote our Nepali identity in world
Just like maoist revolution in Chlna.. Nepals maoist acheived nothing...poor are still poor, corruption and nepotism has incresed, gap between rich and poor is widening,...only differncevis that now you have several kings
India, king conversation with Maoist nothing is mention properly. too much biased documentary. total rubbish... no single party can take credit for the republic or demolished of the king. King, other parties and Maoist each one of them had their own selfish motive but in that process king got outplayed by these parties (btw both king did worse) and obviously with some benefits they agreed. and still Nepalese fanatic mindset towards political parties and worship culture has made Nepal worse than ever.

Such a biased documentary CNA, when 3 sides are involved in the conflict, how dare u present only the 2 sides? Where is the palace version in this?? Or is this your way of just getting sponsorship and advertisements?? Ofcourse, winners write history in their own version but in Nepal after living so many years under the so called federal secular republic, every Nepali feels that this is a totally failed system for Nepal & Baburams' hypothesis was totally wrong...what this country needs is a ceremonial king, directly elected prime minister and restoration of Hindu kingdom. The west, UN and other foreign players can debate hours over this but at the end political parties, maiost won and Nepal lost....... just ask any random Nepali in the streets atm, they will answer u...but don't be biased!! I just wonder whats' happened to those innocent, school going village cadets of maiost who gave up their youth n future to jump into the propaganda of maiost of a Shangrila for them...where r they now??.... probably in the heat of middle east working as cheap labours.....

He is a ccp agent who dances to the tunes of xi jinping.
Now people have realized monarchy is only force to reunite Nepalese,protect our culture and develop the nation
We need monarchy back
Huh. Ya monarchy needs guts like us to rebel against the current systems.
Who gave Democracy to Nepal in 1950: India
Where did all the political parties of Nepal born: India
Who created Maoist and civil war in Nepal: India
Who massacred Royal family of Nepal: India
Who and Where did the 12 point peace agreement happened: Delhi
Who blocks the border in Nepal(1975, 1989, 2015) when it's interest are not acknowledged: Delhi
For sure, nothing happens in Nepal without the acknowledgement from Delhi DURBAR..............
Surely the outcomes of revolution were not ideal but Maoist armed rebellion is the major reason for the rights and mainstreaming of marginalized and backward communities, indigenous ethnicities, dalits.
These privileges folks whining about the revolution don’t even know how difficult it was for dalits, madhesis back in the days, what cultural and linguistic discrimination indigenous people had to face.
As a someone from indigenous community, i will always be grateful to the Maoist rebels and their revolutionary ideas.
Ghanta,they were looters,nowadays alot of discrimination increased and no dalit were ministers during 3 times maoist government 😂 after being so called republic . Even Maoist leader Parchanda is brahman😂.they are agents of CIA and RAW
F*** u did ur father bring any changes, did 17000 died for a cause? Aatankari sala
You seriously think all the youth leaving the country is good?
I am against the discrimination system that we have but surely with time it would have improved but now look at us. In 10 years nepalese schools will have no students
Are you sure that discrimination has been eradicated in our country now ? You can only eliminate it with education and social awareness. The Maoist party can't accomplish anything even after killing so many people.
Now they only care about their position in government they have always taken part in government since they came to peace. They got a full majority in 1st election after coming in peace but they behaved like autocracy king.
@@maheshkatwal7680 no I don’t think youth leaving country is good.
You think it was only due to Maoist rebellion that youths started to leave country?? Nepal has long history of people leaving their homes in search of better opportunities. Nepalese use to go to abroad, mostly India to work during the monarchy, even before the Ranas. Where do you think the words “Muglan”, “Lahure” came from? Surely government (no matter maoist, uml or congress) never did enough to improve the economy, education, etc. But the way people just blame Maoist rebellion for everything and undermine the positive impact on Nepalese society, especially for those voiceless marginalized and discriminated group is not right.
Now the Nepali people have their hands on the head with despair.
Many are fleeing the nation at an unprecedented amount.
Even the previous maoist fighters are saying : what was all this for? we were tricked.
After the Monarchy was abolished, Nepal became a playground for all the political parties. Everyone wanted a peace of it. Unfortunately, that's still the case. We are being ruled by the same primitive people who were fighting against Monarchy. I have never supported killing people in the name of revolution and never will. I do not see Dr. Baburam and Prachanda as leaders of Nepal. Nor, that I like opposing parties for different reasons. Being said that, Nepal's fate could have changed drastically after the revolution but it all went downhill pretty quickly. To be fair, the majority of the people knew, they knew the "leaders" who were fighting against Monarchy weren't competent enough to carry forward. But, the hope was still there which later turned into disappointment. In all this, international governments and organisations are heavily involved, especially India but that's not up for public knowledge nor will be.
What can be said about a country like Nepal, whose economy relies heavily on agriculture, remittances, and tourism? The education system lacks quality, and there is minimal effort toward developing tourism or fostering innovation and manufacturing.
The country remains dependent on imported goods, including basic necessities like food, clothing and consumer goods, which is unsustainable and detrimental to long-term growth.
About 60-65% of Nepal's population is engaged in agriculture, yet it contributes less than 30% to the GDP, nearly 25-30% of Nepal's GDP comes from remittances
Nepal has always been so unlucky . Even when King was there , it was still poor and underdeveloped country and now it has gone worse .
The worst decision made by Nepalese till date.. these politicians made it worse...
USA , EU and the Indians played a very dirty game in Nepal.
Now look at what is happening in their own country.
Socialism was the problem not Monarchy.
Nepal's democracy, supported by the United Nations, has led thousands of people to leave the country in search of better opportunities.
Once Lenin said to peoples in a crowd, why you live poor under the czar, live poor under us, same thing happened, one king gone many king came, but ordinary peoples life is same, hyperinflation, corruption all
King Gyanendra was great king❤ king always love the country but now we neplease people are suffereing from political parties and politicians. We people are suffering from proverty , un employment , corruption , infrastructure of development is very very slow 😢.. so, we need our king again ❤ we need monarchy again.. please king return back and save our country. ❤😢
Maoist Leader life have changed drastically but other 's life getting more difficult than before.... agree or disagree this is true.They dethroned 1 king and lamentably created 1000's of kings. Political party destroyed our beloved country Nepal 🇳🇵
How maiost form and behind death of king??
During a visit to Nepal, Sonia Gandhi wanted to explore the entire Pashupatinath Temple. However, the guru did not allow her to enter the main gate due to her non-Hindu background and consumption of beef, although her husband, Rajiv Gandhi, was permitted. Rajiv requested an exception from the guru and temple authorities, but they remained firm. Later, Rajiv spoke with King Birendra, who explained that the temple was not under government control and suggested he speak to the guru, who was primarily from India. Frustrated and angry, Rajiv returned to India. A few days later, the Indian government imposed a blockade on Nepal, severely impacting its economy. This situation fueled both sides' egos, leading to a significant plan to undermine the monarchy and the Hindu state. They supported the formation of various rebel groups against the monarchy, including the Maoist rebels, providing them with funding and weapons. The Indian government at that time, particularly the RAW and the Congress party, played a crucial role in the events leading to the king's death.
& the Chinese🇨🇳 CCP took advantage of the situation.
In that time people who said leave king gyanendra from Nepal. After period of time they are living Nepal for the better future because of unemployment
I have massive respect for Shah dynasty who unified Nepal and kept us proud and sovereign while the rest of asia suffered from colonialism.
If they correct a few of their flaws, I would be willing to support the re-instatement of monarchy in Nepal.
1. Remove Paras Shah from succession.
2. Encourage young royals to marry outside their castes. Casteism is THE weakest link for Nepal and royals marrying outside their ethnic group would be a solid role model for the people.
as a nepalese citizen from the north wersten corner of nepal, i appreicaite the use of the new map
All are mf bad ass !
Long live monarchy in nepal was our identity. It's todays youth voice !!
Thank you💐 CNA insider that you people Potrayed Nepal History beautifully.This documentation of Nepal more than decade long struggle of todays present leader sounds rellevant for that time span. I request you, please also document the recent political, development,peace,economy reality scenerio of Nepal. It would be easy for us to navigate where do we stand today.🇳🇵
The people who are saying that monarchy is not needed in Nepal and monarchy hasn't do anything for nepal, first of all you guys need to read our history how many years the kings have ruled nepal in their absolute monarchy power, they haven't ruled nepal all of their 250 year's, and look the period they have ruled well is the golden era of nepal. And it's not only the pm who runs the country but the presidential thorne also either it was king or president
These criminals destroyed our nepal😢and powerful countrys make nepal playground for they're intrest😢
How?? Where u from Kathmandu?go visit ruler part of Nepal and ask them how life has changed
@@chaalllaaann8294 it is is very normal for life to change when time proceeds forward. And yeah their life has changed because now their sons are in gulf countries, throwing their life away to just live a bare minimum .
@@chaalllaaann8294 I'm from rural part of Nepal.. Sankhuwasabha..and Nothing has changed.. so what change are you talking about..? My uncle who fought in maobadi andolan and was shut by bullet is now working in saudi arab because of unemployment.. he calls that (fighting in andolan) as his biggest mistake of life.. in fact he don't want to remember those days.. because everything they were promised to drag them into war.. nothing is fulfilled... they sold them fake dream of making Nepal Singapore in 10 years but.. still Nepal is poorest country in south asia.
so true bro
@@chaalllaaann8294 what a joke 😄
Democracy has done little to benefit the people when the so-called 'elected representatives' focus solely on personal wealth and power.
The country remains poor, with Nepal's progress stagnating, marked by low GDP and HDI. Unemployment is widespread, and many are leaving the country in search of education, work, and a better future, as they see no prospects at home
monarcy is needed in nepal. When there was king there was less corruption but now every where we can see corruption
Still Nepal is undeveloped still waiting when it will be developed . Future PM Samyam Karki !
insightful documentary.
Such a shame. I remember once the PM of Nepal in his official visit was received in India by a junior Officer. The respect to the country is shattered when a naxal with Maoist agenda could overthrow the great country of Nepal. The country is still impoverished and backward. All the youths fleeing the country to work as a daily waged laborer in Middle East. The little changes you see in rural part of nepal with CGI roof is Middle East impact. But this will not take the country anywhere. I feel very sorry for Nepal. Love from Bhutan.
Aftermath is even crazier
So everything started from Idea of this guy Baburawan bhattrai and collaboration with India, India provided them shelter and weapons and funds to fuel the war. Shame onto indian government who were not happy with Royal Families.
Still Nepal is not what Switzerland hoped for.
That's was good for the country to move towards democratic state, but what about the 17000 people family who have died due to this war. You think democracy brings development, then why is nepal still developing a country 🤦🏻 the work done by His Majesty is still running the county 🤔 making building, which is not only development. You are developing yourself rather then developing country 😢😢😢
I still do not get the point of calling themselves "Maoist" and using commie flags while in a capitalist country.
A king died and few dictators emerged.
I only wish that King Gyanendra had not left his throne. What would have been the fate of this country? Tremendous respect for him. Therefore, he will be the people's king forever, except for some political badass.
Those who were speaking knows the truth what had happened during that night. They know what they have to speak infront of camera. I think these jokers are the best actor because they acted in such a way the truth is hidden in a natural way.
Better eat stool than be such rascals.
I see Shekhar Koirala, i dont understand his role here. There was no shekhar koirala at least in Nepali Politics during that time frame. 23:19
2:08 thank you for choosing new map of nepal.
Great that you noticed👍
The characters that have spoken here are the designer of the state that Nepal is in. Most of the planning never took this nation interest to heart. It was initiated by those interested to pacify, promote foreign agenda and look relevant to service they were under. Whole Maoist agenda was misguided but they colluded with agents anti-thesis to their core values which they sold to vulnerable population who were slaughtered. The bottom line is Nepal is no better than it was and now even its existence is an open question.
DIVIDE AND RULE : INDIA, the main director behind all the events that has happened in Nepal after 1950........NEPALESE KING, POLITICAL PARTIES and MAOIST were and are still just the Chess Pieces for INDIA to play the GAME the way they want...........
nice video it was very informative and in depth
The revolution is now successful 😢maoist rebel top leaders are now living standard life.wearing branded clothes and accessories 😢.involved in gold , Human smuggling as refugee to developed countries😢 as well as thier son,daughters studying and living abroad .ther families near and dear ones are enjoying different giverment position and earning healthy income😢long live our king and queen 🙏
we nepali youth are watching silently
With each revolution comes a mix of progress and pain, and whether it was right or wrong is open to individual interpretation. So, to answer the question "Was the violence necessary?" - Certainly not. But when asking, "Would other alternatives have guaranteed the same outcome?" - we simply don't know.
And to still have some sympathy for the monarchy is understandable as it represented a long-standing institution deeply embedded in nepal's cultural and historical identity. But the fact is that monarchy was not the best rule for the Nepalese and will never be. The sayings goes "The only alternative to democracy is democracy itself"
Democracy is neither best nor worse. Each system of governance tries to fill the gap created by another but always ends up creating another gap. Additionally, I won't call that movement a REVOLUTION when the "revolted" one exert power on innocents. I'm no admirer of monarchy either but you look naive calling out democracy a better system of governance than others. Which it's clearly not.
Through Peaceful Protest like Mathatma Gandhi Can't you get Democracy? All country protest and massive rally against nepal monarchial and huge protest should have been enough to pressurized king and demolished monarchy system. Democracy is very important in all country . Currently , we will support monarchy if only leader is educated , ambitious , smart like Balen Shah , Rabi Lamichhane.
Why cna doesnt show maoist insurgencey was fully funded by india and west..all leaders were trained and sheltered in india thats known fact
Prince didnt do anything stop blaming him. It was India's RAW and USA's doing
This issue creates by India and western country now all Nepalese people very well known
Conclusion:Outcome of maobadi party revolution took us more under development and Babu Ram thesis was and is wrong.
बाबुराम भट्टराईले
Even though their ideology might be corrupted & irrelevant now, But initially they did what every citizen frustrated from the system dreams of & to be able to make it possible seems unimaginable & remarkable, but after Democracy "Power tends to corrupt, and absolute power corrupts absolutely." Everyone struggles for power after they get a taste of it.
But Ideologies changes with needs along time & so should the "System". The System might always fail but the Country shouldn't.
Someone could direct this and make the real into reel for movie 🎥 revolution in Nepali cinemas
History reloading
As per my understanding, maoists did have some positive impacts in the life of backward and marginalized people in the beginning but foreign powers wanted their puppet leaders in Nepal. They killed the king and his family as the Royal Family was an obstacle to those foreign powers. Later they used maoist leaders as their puppets to influence the development of constitution in Nepal but things didn't go as per their plan and they started changing their support from maoist to other parties. Corruption, mismanagement and political instability has destroyed the country and sadly most of the maoist fighters who fought at the ground level are working in Gulf countries under strict Monarchy.
After this revolution alot of change has been shown but corruption had increased drastically...natra tw even the naive kathmandu kaa manchey 1990 samma chyatya luga lagaunu parni isthiti thyo but ahile testo tw chaina....change ajhai hunu chha we are in the phase of changing
Although the initial intentions of the Maoist movement may have seemed well-meaning, they failed to remain steadfast in their principles, and as a result, look at where they have led our country today. It pains me deeply to see how we, as a nation, have faltered.
Please ask a question to baburam bhattarai, Is he really happy with the current political status of Nepal?
We jst want an efficient economy..social integrity with the concept of sustainable development and peaceful coexistence with the globe.and this seems difficult with the current system.
India played a huge role that’s it
0:59 baburam said its massacre he must know who did it
Looking at the current situation in nepal . it doesn't matter whether there is monarchy or democracy . From top to bottom there is corruption and all youths are flying aboard for their future . Unemployment is at it's peak , many degree holders are unemployed in nepal , there's nothing to say about those who doesn't has degree and has not any educational background. Political parties are just fighting for the power and chair each and everyday in their political career .
We have prime minister who has a kidney failure and got replaced few years ago . instead of dying or taking retirement he has become prime minister of our country . As of right now he is building his new party office instead of helping peoples who was affected by flood.
We want monarch.
Let’s elect the good people in democracy. The system of monarchy can not be imagined in todays world because we all are liberated to become the president and pm of Nepal if we desire.
A kid living in any corner of Nepal can imagine to become the president or pm of Nepal. This is democracy.
So far, we have elected wrong people.
For example, after constitution was promulgated, OLi was not supposed to become the Pm knowing that he is zero about how to lead modern Nepal.
Now Balen is coming.
Many more are about to come.
The Nepal’s history about Monarchy- their system, their authority and all- they never thought People they only took advantage of the the poverty, illiteracy and innocence to reign over them.
Maoist dismantled and brought this system and with out becoming sentimental, let’s support modern political system. Let’s advance the system.
Let’s go for the directly elected system.
Monarchy could not develop the country over 240 years and we can not blame republican state within 15 years.
We have better days ahead.
Under this system Balen will never be a PM.They will not allow.You need to be a member of political party.You know what they do to an emerging opposing party
the video shows the real map of the nepal , kalapani belongs to nepal
Fully a democrat but what did we get after killing 17000 ?
What change did we get?
This voilance was of no use
We want Monarchy again🇳🇵jai desh jai Naresh
Looking at these achives and trying to comprehend how these leaders were looking and talking back then, I wonder where is the change ? the masses raising the slogans with guns are pushed down even beyond the boundaries for cheap labours, leaders are still fighting, many tainted with both money and moral corruption. nothing much changed except few social reforms which i believe was anyway on the way without or without this bloodbath.
Please use Nepali instead of Nepalese which is also official decision by Government of Nepal on 2021 for use of Nepali by all instead of Nepalese in order to promote our Nepali identity in world
the are the biggest culprits the threw the king and now ruling my country
Selfish people made our नेपाल poor in world thats is maoist
Jai Nepal
they made a docu on nepals maoist insurgency without even mentioning india and raw?? is that a joke??
Who massacre royal family? Who helped moist to write this black history of Nepal?
Just like maoist revolution in Chlna.. Nepals maoist acheived nothing...poor are still poor, corruption and nepotism has incresed, gap between rich and poor is widening,...only differncevis that now you have several kings
Baburam will be remembered for his contribution he had done for the nepalese equality and freedom 😊
India, king conversation with Maoist nothing is mention properly. too much biased documentary. total rubbish... no single party can take credit for the republic or demolished of the king. King, other parties and Maoist each one of them had their own selfish motive but in that process king got outplayed by these parties (btw both king did worse) and obviously with some benefits they agreed. and still Nepalese fanatic mindset towards political parties and worship culture has made Nepal worse than ever.
There was a Chinese influence in between the Maoist.
real killer still hiding face ☠. Nepali ho afno desh aafai banaau. aruko bhar napara. afno tol, wada karyalaya, gaupalika, nagar palika hudai jilla sudhaarau. yuwa milera aghi badhau
This is a shallow and incomplete documentation. This insurgency of Nepal was upraised from ground people participated, external power centre played, there are many victims all parts should have covered, before and aftermaths should have looked but this is annoyingly inadequate documentation, shouldn’t have made
That was bad decision to give them any looks.
This maoist is such a ridiculous they destroyed NEPAL AND SEND NEPAL 25 YRS BACK
yo video hern man thiyo tar baburam ko mekh le garda hern man xain
look at us now, what have we become!
बाबुराम killed our king
These fake maoist all trained and studied in India JNU university. Dar xeruva nepali ko mutu kamxa yo kura India Lai banda guff Matras thulo.
Such a biased documentary CNA, when 3 sides are involved in the conflict, how dare u present only the 2 sides? Where is the palace version in this?? Or is this your way of just getting sponsorship and advertisements??
Ofcourse, winners write history in their own version but in Nepal after living so many years under the so called federal secular republic, every Nepali feels that this is a totally failed system for Nepal & Baburams' hypothesis was totally wrong...what this country needs is a ceremonial king, directly elected prime minister and restoration of Hindu kingdom. The west, UN and other foreign players can debate hours over this but at the end political parties, maiost won and Nepal lost....... just ask any random Nepali in the streets atm, they will answer u...but don't be biased!!
I just wonder whats' happened to those innocent, school going village cadets of maiost who gave up their youth n future to jump into the propaganda of maiost of a Shangrila for them...where r they now??.... probably in the heat of middle east working as cheap labours.....
Spot on
100 percent, fully biased documentary.
