Pro- Monarchists Clash With Police In Nepal
Rajendra Lingden (center with face covered) is running for protection and covering his face after police fired tear gas to disperse those who are breaching the police barricade and entering a restricted zone during a protest in Kathmandu, Nepal, on April 9, 2024. Lingden, the Chairman of the Rastriya Prajatantra Party (RPP), a right-wing pro-monarch party, is leading thousands of cadres and pro-monarchists who are clashing with security personnel in Kathmandu. The march is turning violent after they attempted to enter the restricted zone near Singha Durbar, the administrative capital of the Himalayan nation. The RPP took to the streets on April 9, demanding the restoration of the constitutional monarchy and a Hindu kingdom. (Photo by Subaas Shrestha/NurPhoto)
