Nepali people are sovereign and have every right to vote for whomsoever they please. Let there be no doubts about that. Now if they voted for the Maoists, the same group of people that perpetrated so much violence, extortion and terror on fellow Nepalis during (and after) their power war, are you Kharel sahib saying that Nepalis welcome precisely that sort of treatment and, further, that, by rewarding violence, they can look forward to more of the same? May be that’s what Dippy thought too – and who can blame him? As to all those fanciful theories about who killed King Birendra’s family, maybe it was the same lot that killed Pres. Kennedy – aliens from the planet Zog – hail earthlings!
