I have a great respect for all you guys interest in Nepal  and your protest against Jha’s use of Hindi.

But I would suggest you all to remain cool and see the broader political picture. There are lots of anti.national activities going on in Nepal and Jha’s use of hindi is just a minor piece in the big building block.  It seems normal and natural for  patriotic nepali to protest the against this but is it really worth it?

Jha is not appointed by any single person but was elected by a majority of CA. And he got elected despite the fact that he was from a communal partyand  his shady background. So dont act like we were totally taken aback by him taking oath in hindi. As far as I am concerned , I was hurt  but it was not a surprise for me.

We have to look in a broader perspective. If Jhas use of hindi , is damaging for our nationalism then our nationalism is not strong enough.  Jha is just an insignificant actor in Nepali politics , he is just a bait. So dont fall for it. Beside that there are lots of things going around , and we have to be aware.

As I have already pointed out in another thread,  Next few years will be very crucial in the history of our country as we are going to have a new constitution and this is the time where we all should work to influence for what kind of country we want. Pro-madhesi force is strong and will do anything to achieve what they want, some might be benificial for country but most of the demands are separatist. They , being strong , are using threat of civil war, to achieve what they want. And I dont have a single doubt that they are going to influence the Constitution making heavily. Do we want our constitution to be written with a gun pointed at our head? We are already writing the constitution with indian ink but do we also want indian hand to write it?

So my point is dont forget about Jha and his use of hindi to ridicule half of the population, but protesting against  him is futile. What we need is to work towards gradual and effective de-madhesikaran of Nepal.

I have started another thread about need of pro-pahadiyas political force. But it seems like people dont want to discuss or contribute in it.  Lets start discussion on how we can minimise this ongoing madhesikaran og Nepal rather than concentrating on this protest. If we dont do anything now , there will be millions of Jha's not only taking oath, but opressing us in Hindi.
