In 1990, democracy was established in Nepal. King Birendra, who was the ruler at that time, had accepted democracy. Unfortunately, the king got killed in 2001 in the mysterious massacre of the royal family. Following this, King Gyanendra was announced as the new king of Nepal. But he was against democracy and decided to abolish it. The elected parliament was dismissed by him in the year 2005.
In April 2006, a popular movement was witnessed in Nepal. It aimed to restore democracy and regain control of the government from the king.
A Seven Party Alliance was formed, which had all the major political parties in it. They started a strike for four days in Kathmandu. But this strike was joined by Maoists and many other organizations. The protest soon was an indefinite strike. By 21st April, the number of protestors rose between 3 to 5 lakhs. The demands were to restore the parliament, power must be given to an all-party government along with this a new constituent assembly must be formed. Hence, on the last day of the protest a warning was sent regarding the same and the King accepted it on 24th April 2006.
The SPA chose Girija Prasad Koirala as the new prime minister of the interim government. This was Nepal’s second movement towards democracy as stated in the chapter on popular struggles and movements.

Popular Struggle in Bolivia

Bolivia’s water war is a very commonly asked question in class 10th social science examination. Bolivia is a developing country located in Latin America. The government of Bolivia was pressurized by the World Bank to give up its control of the municipal water supply. For the city of Cochabamba, these rights were sold to a multinational company. A Multinational Company gained control over the water supply, and the price of water was increased four times. As a result, a popular protest was started. A new alliance known as FEDECOR was formed, including labour, human rights activists, and community leaders. In January 2000, FEDECOR organized a successful four-day strike in Cochabamba. Finally, when the government agreed to negotiate, the strike ended.
But nothing was changed. So, in February, people decided to start the protest again. People were beaten up brutally by the police to stop it. Again in April, a strike started. This time, the government imposed martial law. When the situation got out of control, the officials of the MNC left the city. Hence, the government had no option left but to accept the demands of the people.
As a result, the contract with the MNC was cancelled, and the municipality again provided the water supply at the old cheaper rates. This popular struggle is known as Bolivia’s Water War, which is another important topic of the chapter on popular struggles and movements.

Although the Nepalese Communist Party (Maoists) did not believe in a parliamentary democracy, they joined the struggle.
Moreover, the movement was supported by teachers, lawyers, indigenous people, and human rights activists.
In Bolivia, the Water War was led by an organization named FEDECOR.
The members of FEDECOR were local professionals, farmers, environmentalists, factory workers, students, and homeless street children.
