Let me do a little bit of rearrangement of the same news posting. Side A *****Meanwhile, Koirala this morning ruled out possibility of a republican set up in the country at present. ***** Talking to party workers in Biratnagar he said: "Republic is just a matter of bargaining but its impossible in Nepal. Republic means throwing away of the monarchy but we cannot go against the King. The present situation of the nation is not favourable for the republican set up." ***** He said there is fear of anarchy and foreign intervention in a republic. Side B ***** Nepali Congress President Girija Prasad Koirala today accused Gagan Thapa, former general secretary of the Nepal Students? Union (NSU), of being a Royalist. *****Gagan Thapa?s activities were suspicious from the beginning. I know that he (Thapa) is a Royalist,? district level party leaders said quoting Koirala, ***** Stop. So, isn't that funny? Mr Lauda applauds the king and accuses Gagan of being royalist. When he supports the king, even if Gagan is mobilized by the palace, then he should rather have been proud of Gagan. If he does not support the king, then Gagan is barking against the king and again he should have been proud of Gagan. What I really find funny with these clowns is that given the extent of show Gagan has already exhibited, how in the world would he go back to the king's camp; has he spared anything that saves his face even when he "declares" his hidden role?. I also used to laugh at folks who, in the past, used to whine that Maoists were steered from the palace. बिहान बिहानै कति हाँस्नु नि । यो चिन्डे त तुलसी गिरी भन्दा नि महा-पातकी रैछ ।यसपालीको हैजा, गिरीजालाई लैजा Keep rolling...
