Demonstration staged demanding Culture Minister Kirati’s resignation over controversial remarks



KATHMANDU: The Nepal Sanatan Dharma Culture Organization staged a demonstration on Thursday, calling for the immediate resignation of the Minister of Culture, Tourism, and Civil Aviation, Sudan Kirati.

The protest took place in the vicinity of the Pashupatinath temple, following a controversial statement made by Minister Kirati during a public program on Wednesday.

Protestors voiced their discontent, insisting that Minister Kirati step down from his position without delay.

During a public event on Wednesday, Minister Kirati sparked controversy by stating, “Opposing Christianity means opposing the constitution, and those who oppose Christianity will be handcuffed.”

In response to the widespread criticism from parliamentary committees and social media opposing his statement, there have been calls for Minister Kirati’s dismissal, with demands for legal action against him.
