Where is the right to free speech? So much for democracy. Yes Girijeey democracy.

That is ridiculous, she is one of the best politician we have in Nepal, she stands for what she thinks, no matter if other agrees or not.
How can they ban her interview, she has every right to express her views, it is for the viewers to judge.
These sort of muscle flexing is what brought the democracy down to the drains, and if they haven't learnt their lesson yet, achievements of J-II will also go the same way.
Idiotic henchmens and their nalayak leaders should also be packed and bundled out.
