Wednesday, Feb. 1
Rally for Democracy in Nepal
Starts at 4pm

Candle-light Vigil
Starts at 5:30pm

Organized by Canadian Network for Democratic Nepal

At Vancouver Art Gallery, BC

At exactly 10:00am on February 1st 2005, Nepal’s King Gyanendra took over the radio airwaves and announced that as of that moment the Government was dissolved, and he would take over rule of the country. Within minutes of the announcement all communication systems in the country were shut down by the Royal Nepali Army, and constitutionally enshrined civil rights were revoked. King Gyanendra promised that by taking over rule of the country he would bring peace and stability and end the civil war that has been raging since 1996. Instead, his Army immediately rounded up Nepali peace and democracy activists, journalists, intellectuals, and anyone who spoke publicly against the autocratic move. The civil war has continued unabated, and bloodshed is unchecked.

Mati Bernabei is a Canadian who was teaching in Nepal at the time of the Royal coup. She will exhibit her slides of the Kathmandu Valley and discuss her experiences of life in Nepal during the current crisis. While in Nepal, in addition to teaching, she was active in the human rights movement in support of Tibetan refugees and worked in support of Nepali human rights and democracy activists through the “International Nepal Solidarity Network” (www.insn.org).

Canadian Network for Democratic Nepal (CNDN) is an advocacy organization acting as a common forum for all Nepali expatriates and friends of Nepal in Canada who want to see Nepal as popular, representative, and republican democracy (www.pdfnepal.com).

PROTEST RALLY AGAINST
King GYANENDRA’s Feb 1
coup d’état
SUNDAY, January 29th, 2006
Lafayette Park, Washington DC

CAMPAIGN FOR THE RESTORATION OF
DEMOCRACY, CIVIL LIBERTIES AND
HUMAN RIGHTS IN NEPAL

King Gyanendra staged a coup d’état on Feb 1, 2005. Within a year this small
Himalayan Kingdom has witnessed an ever downward spiraling of political,
economical and social conditions. Extra judicial killings, daily
disappearances of innocent Nepalese, harassment to media and journalists and
ban on peaceful protests have become the daily norms. People’s democratic
rights have been completely replaced by Gyanedra’s military might. His
handpicked cronies in the government continue to enhance his campaign of
terror and destruction of Nepal. King Gyanendra continues along his
dictatorial path and has turned deaf ears to the pleas of International
Community including UN, USA, UK, EU, India and others democratic countries.

As you may be aware, the May 15, 2005 Washington, DC Rally and September
16, 2006 New York Rally for Democracy in Nepal unquestionably and
unequivocally sent a strong message to King G and his government that we
are for a lasting positive impact on our struggle for democracy, civil
liberties, and human rights in Nepal. DC Rally Coordination Committee once
again requests the Nepali Diaspora of North America to stand in SOLIDARITY
with our fellow citizens of Nepal who continue to oppose the dictatorial
rule of King Gyanendra. Let’s participate in this massive protest rally to
send a clear message to King Gyanendra that ignoring the mainstream
political parties is NOT in his best interest. We call upon all freedom and
democracy loving people to come and join our protest rally. Our Struggle for
Democracy continues in Nepal.
