They can lock me up if they want: Ex-minister Shrestha after SC's order

Former education minister Krishna Gopal Shrestha has said he is not bothered by the interim order of Supreme Court (SC) to the police to accept complaint against him over the Rupa Sunar incident.

Talking to Setopati Friday morning Shrestha stated that he has not paid attention to that claiming that he has fought against caste discrimination and untouchability throughout his life. "I have reached this age today fighting for the dalits and against untouchability," he added. "I don't understand why they do so. I don't recognize those persons. I cannot bear to see anyone suffer injustice. Loving those who suffer injustice is my character."
