I think Girija accomplished two goals this time. Sujata, Girija’s heir apparent, needed experience as minister albeit she has been a super minister there. Girija as well as his sycophants might have thought Sujata’ tenure as minister will position her as a formidable candidate to claim higher and bigger post within the party and in the government during the days and months ahead.

Girija’s achieved other goal by pleasing those who gave him prime minister chair this time and the ones who supported him to stay in the power in the past too. If Baburam is Indian intelligence’ main man in Nepal, one cannot overlook Sitaula- the home minister who has been facing lots of wraths within the party lately and his most visible bete-noire is none other than Ms Sujata Koirala. Her allegations have been problem for the minister, and Girija is well aware of it. Girija is also well aware of the fact that those who gave him prime ministerial chair will be unhappy if Situala cannot work tense-free for the holly mission- the mission to cut Nepal into pieces. So Girija might have made this point before his bosses and got her into the cabinet.

For many of us it is another news to talk about...few might relish on it...for ordinary folks in Nepal it hardly makes any sense.

my personal view btw
