As many as 48 organisations representing conflict victims have written to United Nations (UN) Secretary-General António Guterres affirming that Nepal continues to fail in establishing truth, justice, and reparations for thousands of victims of human rights violations during Nepal's 1996-2006 conflict, reports The Himalayan Times on October 2. Referring to the remarks of Minister of Foreign Affairs during the 76th session of the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) on September 27 in New York, the organisations said, "We hold that successive governments of Nepal have long continued to merely pay lip service and make false commitments to the transitional justice process at international forums including that of the UN. And it is our belief that Minister Khadka's recent remark at the UNGS is just a continuation of those empty promises." In the UNGA, Minister Khadka had said that Nepal was committed to conclude the transitional justice process through the Truth and Reconciliation Commission and the Commission of Investigation on Enforced Disappeared Persons and that there would be no blanket amnesty in cases of serious violation of human rights.
