Wrong process is going on in Nepal right now. The situation right now and henceforth will trigger the rise of strong monarch and weak people. Political process itself needs support of people, majority of people. Political parties beckon the majority of people. And, a country does what the majority of people want. And the deeds of country is the reflection of the people, and the situation of a country is the outcome of the want and desire of people. Desire, when being neglected and misinterpreted bring unwanted consequences: Corruption, nepotism, and recent military coup. The military coup of feb.1 is not logical in anyway and it cannot be justified. Hami nepali sabai ko autai chana ? sundar Santa Nepal?. King Gyanendra has taken a self acclaimed step to bring peace to Nepal so that we could live and travel without any threat. But, he cannot bring peace to Nepal. He could bring peace to his heart by realizing that he can make a sovereign country knelt on his knee. He could bring peace to his heart by realizing that he and his family can make laws. He could bring peace to his heart by realizing that a family can own a country. He could bring peace to his heart by realizing that he is a dictator. He can bring peace to his heart by realizing that ?I?m the man who can walk above the constitution made by the feelings of 25 million people.? Each word of the constitution of 2047 weighs every drop of blood of martyrs who died letting us live free, so that we could watch HBO, BBC, Zee tv, AJtak, Channel Nepal, Surf internet, chat, could draw and write things we disliked in Gaijatra magazine, practice our own way of life. This is a democracy; an open world. Every word of constitution refers to the last word every martyr said with their last breath: Prajatantra The rule of people. There is no more rule of people and law in nepal. Most of the politicians did not took the spirit of democracy seriously and most surprisingly the maoist, who had the freedom to express, came up with armed revolution. If maoist really wanted to give freedom and liberty to unprivileged and suppressed lower caste of people, they would have taken an intellectual way of consistent persuasion rather than weapons. Political parties lacked in commitment made to people, maoist over manipulated the illiterate, unprivileged and suppressed class of people. Now, the King, who is a symbol of unity in Nepal has fallen in the same category of political parties and maoist. He has failed to institutionalize democratic system in Nepal. And, has taken arms to bring nepali together. If he really wanted peace in Nepal; 1. why didn?t he completely support the democratic government? 2. Why did he took the supreme power just within 2 years of his accession to throne?3. Why did he surge support to initial Maoist movement? 4. Why was the royal massacre dramatized? Most of these questions have somewhat the same answer: Desire for power. May democratic system be institutionalized and peace prevail in Nepal.
