You guys have tried to invoke me but I'd not belittle myself by arguing with you any more. You could rejoice of victory only if your comments had changed my stance, which unfortunately for you, has strengthened day by day. Nevertheless, you can celebrate if you think you have won.The problem with the monarchists are they are very complacent about people liking them, which in fact is not true(the size of pro-monarchist program demonstrates it). To answer Saroj's question, my initial thoughts were not abt. ousting monarchy. Refer to 'Thinking sensibly and impartially' . I had urged for a positive role from the King to promote and strengthen democracy.A monarchy which accepts to be the heritage of the nation just like in England. But when King pushes for dictatorship, there is no reason for us to quest for a middle ground. If dictatorship is King's venture, there is nothing sinister about ending the tradition of monarchy. King is going the dictatorial way. The latest attempt is an ammendment of the existing media laws enforcing total censorship in media. This is not abt. taping the journalists' mouth, this is about blocking Nepalese people from being informed; a move only the dictators resort to protect their sins from being exposed.The monarchy is irresponsible and your question what if the KIng flees is in itself marred with dubious irresponsibilities. First, the monarchy could have stayed on as a positive democratic institution. Secondly, if it doesn't want to stay in the domain, a proper handover/transition of power could have been their responsibility. Thirdly, if the King flees irresponsibly, there will certainly be some kind of vaccum but I am sure that will be shortlived. The King won't leave unless the public storm into Narayanhiti. By then, political parties can work out a contingency plan to fill the vacuum.International community, UN etc can help in some way until the situation is stabilized if anything unpleasant really happened.But I won't think it will be so messy. See how Georgia, Kyrgyzstan, Ukraine, Ivorycoast got through recently. You see, the world is very dynamic and no single people or a single group is indespensible for the contunuation of this dynamism. A couple of centuries ago, the whole world was ruled by Kings and Emperors. Now a dozen or so are remained.Very soon none may exist. Inherited rule is not a scientifically proven ideology. Hence, Nepal can do very well without monarchy. The world has carried on with so many upheavels and mayhem, there's no reason that Nepal can't cope without monarchy. I hope this answers your questions. Now, I would not like to discuss with you because this has not at all been fruitful in broadening my political horizon. Therefore, I'd not like to waste my precious time arguing with you now. Finally let me end this discussion by putting one statement made by one of the infamous पंच of one time, Buddhi Man Tamang recently: अहिले नयाँ परिस्थिति सिर्जना हुनासाथ स्वार्थका लागि राजसंस्थाको जयजयकार गर्नेहरू देखिन थालेका छन् यस्ता बाँदरेभक्ति देखाउनेहरूबाट राजसंस्थाको हित हुनसक्दैन, त्यसैले राजसंस्था सचेत पनि हुन सक्नुपर्छ, यस्ता कुराहरूप्रति । And for me, राजावादीहरूको अहिलेको चुरीफुरी देख्दा लाग्छ, यो कतै वर्षातको भेलमा धेरै भ्यागुता कराएजस्तो त होइन ?
