He didn't know what was the motive behind it but he was already a member of the Multi-Party Movement.[4]
He used to collect all the forms and pamphlets of the protests and protesters, he used to collect and read them after returning to his room which was then considered as treason as Nepal was a monarchy. He used to protect and keep it very securely. There was a major Hindu festival Holi in the middle of the movement for which Mr. Jha decided to visit his Home Village with his uncle Devendra Jha who happened to be a havaldar of Nepal Police, there was high tension between Police officials and the protestors during that time as it was peak of the protest. He kept the forms, appeals and pamphlets inside the bag of his uncle without the notice to his uncle Devendra. He was travelling in his uniform as during those days the police officials weren't charged in the buses. After returning his uncle was shocked. They later showed the agendas throughout the district with his team was the strongest and the biggest in the whole Rautahat district. The local police station was burned down by the protesters, His village is one of the highly politically active villages in Nepal as the Bairgania Sammelan was sponsored by big landlords of Matsari Village.
