Dr. Sandesh Lamsal Foundation Accuses Harka Sampang’s Party of ‘Political Weaponisation of Minors’ in Nepal Protests - writes @the_news_21 “Nepal’s Constitution and parliamentary ethics require MPs to act with integrity and honour,” the foundation said, arguing that elected representatives carry a heightened moral and legal responsibility when it comes to children’s rights. #HarkaSampangARevolution #Nepal #ShramSanskritiParty #StopChildAbuse #UnitedNationsHumanRightsCouncil #DrSandeshLamsalFoundation #UnitedNations @PM_nepal_ @hark_sampang @ShahBalen @dolprasadaryal @NepalPoliceHQ @hrw @DSLF_Nepal @UNHumanRights @UN_HRC @mowcsc_nepal Read here 👇🏻 thenews21.com/harka-sampang-…

To The Office of the Speaker House of Representatives, Kathmandu, Nepal The Dr. Sandesh Lamsal Foundation is deeply concerned about and shocked by the credible report of the involvement of school-age children in the protests for Sukumbasi and for alleged fake squatters by the Shram Sanskriti Party. Children as young as primary school have been seen being brought to political meetings and demonstrations in recent complaints, viral videos and eyewitness accounts. This is not an exception, as such incidents were seen during the party's election campaign in January 2026, when the Dharan Municipal Child Network filed formal complaints with the Election Commission and police. Child exploitation can also be regarded when the innocent young children's photos are being used for political propaganda. The Member of Parliament Harka Sampang and his allies have posted pictures of the Honourable Prime Minister of Nepal, Balendra Shah's minor daughter, juxtaposed with images of protests to attack the government. The use of a child's image for partisan attacks is an affront to her right to privacy, her dignity, and to be protected from political exploitation. This is in disregard of basic national and international laws. The constitution of Nepal ensures the right to education and protection from exploitation for every child. The Children's Act 2075 explicitly prohibits children's participation in political activities. The United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child (UNCRC), of which Nepal is a member, expressly states that, internationally: ❖ Article 3 requires that the best interests of the child be the primary consideration in any event. ❖ Article 28 guarantees the right to education, while involving children in protests deprives them of schooling and normal development. ❖ Article 32 protects children from economic and other exploitation that interferes with education or harms their health, mental, or social development. ❖ Article 36 demands protection from all other forms of exploitation prejudicial to the child’s welfare, including exploitation for political activities (as clarified in UNICEF summaries and the joint OHCHR-UNICEF Position Paper on Children in Political Activities). Attending protests is a threat to children's physical safety, can cause psychological harm and infringes their right to peaceful assembly without adults' manipulation. OHCHR and UNICEF have issued joint guidelines for Nepal, which clearly state that political parties should not recruit, transport or encourage children to participate in rallies, demonstrations and campaign events. The effects are significant and immediate. Children miss school, experience police violence or harassment at protests, are at risk of long-term trauma and lose the “protected childhood” that is provided by the law. It does not constitute participation; it is exploitation, which threatens the very principles of child rights and democracy. Mr. Harka Sampang is a sitting or elected Member of Parliament and chairperson of the national political party, and thus has increased responsibility. The Foundation calls for an independent investigation by the Ministry of Women, Children and Senior Citizens into the matter immediately. Wherever violations are confirmed, robust legal action must take place, with fines, party sanctions and, in light of the repeated allegations made, re-thinking of the revocation of his parliamentary status. There are clear examples from all over the world. In various democracies, politicians who used children as props or campaign tools have been disqualified, removed from office and/or formally sanctioned under election and child protection legislation. Nepal has the same responsibility to ensure accountability. The Dr. Sandesh Lamsal Foundation urges the Government to take a bold step now to save Nepal's children and regain the trust of the people in the Governmental institutions. We are prepared to be used as evidence and will assist any official enquiry.

नेपाल सरकारले विश्वविद्यालयहरूबाट दलीय विद्यार्थी संगठनलाई पूर्ण रूपमा हटाउने निर्णय किन गर्यो ? शिक्षा, विज्ञान तथा प्रविधि मन्त्रालयले चैत्र २० गते विश्वविद्यालयका उपकुलपतिहरू सहितको समन्वय समितिको बैठकमा गरेको निर्णयले शिक्षण संस्थाहरूलाई राजनीतिक दल तथा विद्यार्थी संगठनमुक्त बनाउने प्रयास थालेको छ । ❖ दलगत विद्यार्थी संगठन सम्बन्धित व्यक्तिहरूले कक्षा बन्द र तोडफोड गर्दा संविधानको धारा ३१ अनुसार विद्यार्थीहरूको शिक्षाको मौलिक अधिकार उल्लङ्घन हुने गर्दछ । ❖ यी संगठनहरूले लामो समयदेखि शिक्षकहरूलाई धम्की दिने, जबर्जस्ती चन्दा असुली गर्ने, तथा हिंसामा संलग्न भई विश्वविद्यालयहरूलाई अपराधको अखडा बनाएका थिए । ❖ विश्वविद्यालयहरूमा हुने चरम राजनीतिकरणले पठनपाठनमा अवरोध सिर्जना गरी राज्यको गुणस्तरीय तथा समान शिक्षाको प्रतिबद्धतालाई समेत उल्लङ्घन गरेको छ । ❖ शिक्षा भन्दा राजनीतिक एजेन्डालाई प्राथमिकता दिँदा बन्द तथा परीक्षा रद्दका घटनाहरू दोहोरिन्छन् जसले विद्यार्थीहरूको बहुमूल्य समय खेर जाने गर्दछ । ❖ दलगत संरचना हटाई गैरदलीय विद्यार्थी परिषद् बनाउँदा संविधानको धारा १७ बमोजिम संगठनात्मक अधिकार कायम रहनुका साथै शैक्षिक संस्था दलको कब्जाबाट मुक्त हुनेछन् । 👉🏻 के तपाईँहरू सरकारको यो निर्णयसँग सहमत हुनुहुन्छ ? @ShahBalen | @DSLF_Nepal | @PM_nepal_ | @mofnepal | @MoEST_Nepal | @sasmitp | @moha_nepal | @Sudanhaminepal | @hello_sarkar | @MahabirPun | @SumanaShrestha

Urgent Appeal for Diplomatic Intervention for the Release of Nepali Citizens Captured in Ukraine To Mr. Shisir Khanal Honourable Minister for Foreign Affairs of Nepal Honourable Minister, Mr. Shisir Khanal Ji, We, the Dr. Sandesh Lamsal Foundation, write with concern and unyielding hope to request the safe and immediate return of several Nepali citizens who have been held captive in Ukraine for more than two and a half years. One such citizen travelled to the Russian Federation on 10 October 2022 on a valid student visa to pursue higher studies while undertaking part-time employment. As the conflict intensified, his employment opportunities ceased entirely. Despite persistent efforts to secure alternative work, he was dismissed from successive positions within days, leaving him in severe financial distress. Faced with mounting loans and the critical medical condition of his father, whose both kidneys had failed and who required an urgent transplant, he made the profoundly difficult decision in July 2023 to enlist in the Russian army. No member of his family ever encouraged or instructed him to take this step; the decision was driven solely by acute economic pressure and the desperate need to support his ailing parent. He was deployed to the front lines in late August 2023 and was captured by Ukrainian forces between 15 and 20 September 2023. Shortly thereafter, Ukrainian journalist Mr. Volodymyr Zolkin contacted the family through WhatsApp and shared video evidence confirming the capture. Mr. Zolkin further indicated that the Ukrainian authorities were prepared to negotiate the individual’s release with the Government of Nepal through official diplomatic channels. The citizen in question is currently believed to be held in Camp 1, Kyiv. He has remained in captivity for over two and a half years, during which time the family has received no verified information regarding his health or welfare. The family has repeatedly approached various offices of the Government of Nepal, senior politicians, and high-level authorities, including at Singha Durbar and Baluwatar, yet after more than two and a half years, no substantive progress has been achieved. In addition to the above case, several videos from the Ukrainian media have confirmed that at least six other Nepali citizens are in similar circumstances: ❖ Bibek Khatri (Bardia) ❖ Siddharth Dhakal (Kavre) ❖ Vikas Rai (Morang) ❖ Prateik Pun Magar (Rolpa) ❖ Sujan Subedi (Chitwan) ❖ Ishwar Lamichhane (Makwanpur / Gorkha) ❖ Madan Kumal (Gorkha) We respectfully urge you to extend every possible diplomatic assistance to facilitate the prompt release of these Nepali nationals on humanitarian grounds. We further request that this matter be raised through appropriate channels with the Government of Russia and Ukraine to enable negotiations, or, if necessary, at relevant international forums, including the United Nations. The fate of these young Nepali citizens, who found themselves in this situation through circumstances beyond their control, now rests upon compassionate and constructive diplomatic engagement. We trust in your dedication to justice and humanitarian principles and look forward to your valued support in resolving this pressing humanitarian issue. Note: We would like to inform you that we will be closely following and documenting the updates and responses received from your side, which may be viewed at the following link: dslf.org.np/press/release-… Similar correspondence has also been transmitted to: 1.

In a dramatic development, Nepal Police arrested former Prime Minister KP Sharma Oli and former Home Minister Ramesh Lekhak on March 28, 2028, in connection with the crackdown. However, Oli was admitted to the IOM Teaching Hospital, citing health complications and has remained there since, triggering public outrage and allegations that he is evading custodial interrogation. The Dr. Sandesh Lamsal Foundation has said it will continue to update its timeline as events unfold and expand its relief programmes where needed. Its message remains direct: the deaths of young protesters cannot be reduced to statistics or symbolic recognition. Without accountability, the promises made in the name of “Gen Z martyrs” will remain hollow. - writes @the_news_21.
