Bhrasta Netaji, At least you are here to represent the cause of Maoists rebels and I have full sympathy for the warring faction with a very uncertain future. The sympathy is not for their violent methods but for their uncertain future. The sympathy is for the life of so many Nepali youths who have been misguided to carry arms and ammunitions for a war which they have no prospect of winning at any cost. Practically thinking, the maoists do not have a tiny chance of winning power in Nepal. Obviously they have the power to continue the present chaos but the chaos will do no good for their cause. What advantage can Maoists gain by continuing violence, letting their cadres to die and making boastful comments of victory when the truth is just opposite? Hit and run tactics will never win a war and maoists simply don't have enough fire power to dislodge the conventional army. The maoists leaders know this truth and they want to make a safelanding in the mainstream. Unfortunately, King Gyanendra thinks that he can wipe out the maoists. So he wants them to surrender unconditionally . But wouldn't that be a shame to surrender without having their minimum demand fulfilled. Unlike the mandales and some politicians, I do reckon that maoists are a sizeable proposition in Nepali power struggle. But they do not represent the part which they think they are representing. The maoists have over estimated their strength and this estimation will only lead to their failure. If you think that Maoists are the children of Nepalese, do not encourage them to fight.Their future is more dangerous than that of the monarchists and the politicians. Because, sooner than later the king and the politicians are sure to hug each other (because the political equation of Nepal balances when this happens - at leasts for the interests of India and USA). Now although the maoists may find themselves in a difficult situation, it is in their best interest to offer the King a truce in return for a dialogue in which constituent assembly could be one of the agendas. No matter how many army or police they kill, finally they will have to agree on this issue and this is the biggest bargain they can possibly hunt. Frt the time being, this also appears impossible because Gyanendra is also in his own dream- dreaming about flushing the maoists within three years. Now the Maoists have three options- 1.announcing ceasefire and offering the King a chance for peace talks. 2. convincing the political parties to struggle together for a democratic republic. 3. or continuing the current chaos and digging their own graveyard. No. 1 obviously is the easiest choice. They may think it's bowing down to the King, but this is the best option to prevent blood shed in the country. Sharing power with the King and political parties and servig for the best interest of Nepal is the best option available for the rebels. Second option is not too easy. But once all sides but the monarchy unite together, they can dismantle monarchy from Nepal but it may take years and years. The king should be very repressive to the people to let this happen. The third option is suicidal for the maoists. They are going to gain nothing by continuing the present actions. They are going no where with the present style. Bhrasta netaji afna maobadi karyakarta lai uchalera mrityu ko mukh ma falne kaam nagarnu yar. Our Nepal is for all the Nepalese- democrats, monarchists or maoists, rich or poors. Not for selfish corrupt and self-fulfilling lot.
