Nepali Congress President Gagan Thapa has demanded a judicial commission investigate the Bhadra 24 incident, stating that any government attempt to cover it up is unacceptable.

Thapa also expressed readiness to resolve internal party disagreements and unite the Nepali Congress.

• Thapa accused the government of attempting to control the legislature and judiciary since its formation and vowed that the opposition would continue efforts to resist these actions.
• He urged that the National Human Rights Commission's report regarding the incidents of September 8 and 9, 2025, be made public and that pressure to withhold it should cease.
• The Nepali Congress president stated his commitment to bringing leaders outside the central committee back into the party's mainstream and creating an environment for them to work.
• Thapa emphasized the importance of forming party committees, such as the membership management, disciplinary, and election committees, with the consultation and satisfaction of all members.
• He also highlighted that the Nepali Congress will not compromise on citizen rights and dignity, referencing concerns over demolition drives against informal settlements.
