Some people here believe that "representation" based on ethnic line is important. Wake up, this is 21st century. I want a leader who is capable of doing something good. I want the best. But in the name of representation of ethnic background, I don't think s/he represent me thus s/he can not deliver, and s/he is more to represent his/her ethnic background, which is so localized, and s/he might want to provoke people of his background in his constituency so that those who voted people of other ethnic background are ejected out of the constituency. Eventually we are heading towards segregation. In US, the method of segregation failed, and we failed to realize it.

Even if the number of Kangressies is too low in this parliament, when it comes debate, Maoists will threat, and intimidation using these large number SURTI THAPADI MARNE type of Parliamentarians. Some one out of Maoist leadership will tell them that Thapadi Mara, and all these 250+ will clap ..... We call it representation. It will be the most unfortunate set of parliamentarian in the history of nepal, after 2032's Gau Farke nominations of parlimentarians.

What is Surti Thapadi? The debate is so boring that you don't understand, you feel sleepy. Unknowingly you sleep because it is a hall full of 600 people, and too hot, too boring discussions that goes above your head. Then a fellow parliamentarian who also feels boring want something to keep him woke up, and he needs caffine or nicotine whatever is available. So, he decides to have surti. So, he gets surti out of pocket, and prepares it. During the preparation, he has to clap surti .... in traditional way, then the parliamentarian who is sleeping suddenly wakes up and feels that he is missing something. Then follows the clap, ..... so other gawars who also did not understand ... follows him... clap clap.... patatataa.....
