Uttam Pudasaini, former President of Society, informed Nepal Views, ‘ Whoever found guilty must be punished in the fake Bhutanese Refugee Scandal. If the Top-most leaders are found guilty in the case, the Parliament and Members of the Parliament must remain adamant. They must be directed like in the National Panchayat System.’

The Police have kept a total of 16 protestors including Krishna Pahadi; Protector of Peace Society, and Former President Pudasaini.
