Nasheed says public will change govt through democratic means

Former President and MDP Chairperson Mohamed Nasheed said on Thursday that public opposition to government actions would continue and that citizens would ultimately determine the country's political future. He spoke at the conclusion of an MDP protest in Malé under the slogan 'Vazeefaa Buraasfathi' (Employment Thursday). The demonstration began at Rasfannu at approximately 8:30 p.m. and concluded at Artificial Beach after a march. The protest was organized in response to alleged dismissals of opposition supporters from government employment and state-owned enterprises. Nasheed stated that employment rights are protected under the Constitution and accused the government of dismissing employees without due process. He criticized President Mohamed Muizzu, arguing that government actions were contributing to growing public dissatisfaction. The protest concluded without incident, and police did not intervene. It was the first major street protest organized by the MDP since Nasheed became party chairperson.
