Poonte bro, first of all congratulations on the grand success of the rally. now, let's get to the point: You and other have repeatedly written that there were a few pro-monarchs in the rally and you all embraced them wholeheartedly with open arms. Now my question is: Did you or whoever wrote that samudaya piece show up at the pro-monarchists rally? Did you guys offer those damn-panches/mandales and deshdrohis, any chance to show their hospitality? Or you guys actually went to the monarchist rally and got verbally and/or physically abused for carrying pro-democarcy banners? If its not the case, then making this ludicrous claim " - One would only hope that they have appreciated and enjoyed the right to dissent and that they would continue to use?and eventually learn to love and realize the significance of?such freedom." - only lowers the credibility of pro-democrats because you or whoever that young writer you are referring to are assuming that just because they are monarchists, they are automatically undemocratic and closed to debates. Who knows they might be open to debates and as hopsitable as you all? So unless you have verifiable proof that those monarchists did verbally or physcailly abuse the pro-democracy people in their rally, its no use making such nonsensical compariosns and assumptions jasto lagcha malai ta.. baki ta you all know more and better. Just my view.
