The important thing is people should be given equal oppertunity in each and every part of life. As feb1 said democacy is for the educated people, but going back to nepal's history nepali never got chance to be well educated ,neither during the ranas nor during the panchaes peroid. Education here not only mean going to school and getting a degree but letting people think in their own way and making them able to express their opinion in public which will in turn let others to think on it and decide whats right and whats wrong. In rescent years people were getting well educated and were realising the mistakes that we did on past and the weeknesses that we had during the last decade.
