has abstract	Durganand Jha (Nepali: दुर्गानन्द झा) was Nepalese democratic fighter who attempted to assassinate King Mahendra of Nepal in January 1962 (9 Magh 2018 BS) in Janakpur in southeastern Nepal. Durga was captured after he threw a bomb on a motor-vehicle carrying the king. He threw bomb in a strict security of thousands of army and police at the Janaki Temple premises in Janakpur during his visit to the eastern Terai. He was executed by firing squad on 15 Magh 2020 BS (February 1964) at Central Jail, Kathmandu. He was born at Jatahi, Janakpur. Jha was member of Nepali Congress. At the time of execution he was 21 years old. He is also considered as the first republican martyr of Nepal. Jha threw a bomb saying King Mahendra had scuttled democracy by dissolving the popularly elected parliament and imposing a direct rule. Jha soon went into exile in India, but did not think it right to be in exile when 59 people were arrested and beaten up in the name of the bomb incident while he was preparing for various movements, and therefore, returned to Nepal. He was detained at Parbaha Railway Station as soon as he returned and put in Central Jail in Sundhara, Kathmandu. Sympathy to then 21 years old Durganand Jha was expressed quietly, only to the teenage wife. Today Durgananda Jha is hailed as one of the greatest martyrs in southern Nepal. Legend has it that King himself told Jha that he would spare his life for an apology to which Durganand replied that the king was the one who should apologize for all the lives that had been lost in the quest for democracy, which he hijacked. According to Aravind Thakur, arrested along with him, Jha, as he was prepared for death penalty, had said, "Do not worry, no one can stop republic now". He is held as a martyr by the democratic parties, which never went mainstream because monarchy retained a power position in Nepal. Monarchs discouraged acts of rebellion against them. (en)
