Alternate, thanks for your unbiased opinion. I respect your opinion.
I am afraid that federalism is going to create even more politicans and to bring more conflicts for sharing of resources and demarcation of state lines. Currently Nepal need the least numbers of politicans; we simply can't afford more of these crooks.
I think the reason for all the protests are all the frustations. Mostly the government offices and power houses are occupied by brahmin, chhetris. Yes, they studied hard, and were determined and guided from the beginning to get employed in government institutions. Let's admit that our system is corrupted and we don't respect others in general. When these people go to government offices, they are most likely to be mistreated by these crook officials in order to get the bribes (Then there are occasions when they prey on certain groups - the recent airport incident of Sherpa women). So instead of not knowing the real cause i.e. the system, we would easily blame the ethnicity of person on the "kursi". If that person is from janjatis, will s/he be doing the same? why not? But the reality is that currently it's mostly brahmins/cheetris. It seems that janjatis want the share of all these rather than having a fair/unbiased system. Non-janjatis also are afraid to lose their stakes from these dirt money, and hence the present chaos.Then there're the crooks like Prachanda/Mohan Baidhya/Baburam Bhattarai who're looking to cash these sentiments and there are many others sponsored by Indians e.g. Two deputy-PMs of Nepal - Gachhedar, Sitaula. What we should be asking/fighting for is FAIR/UNBIASED system without nepotism. But I know it's just a dream and is not going to happen easily.
I totally agree with you on that the state didn't strategically made certain groups disadvantaged. They were simply busy on feeding their own greed like I gave the examples above. They don't care about their own birth place; let's forget about them thinking for the benefit of other underprevilidged. On top of that, the journalists write whatever; they only need money. Most of Janjati leaders are not different than Deuba or Pashupati shamsher, then how can federalism (ethnic or geographic) bring prosperity? As I said, theoretically it works and must work, but in Nepal, the time/cost it will take to work is more than we can afford.
Why do we never protest on these issues?
Everyone paid to buy fuel, but Nepal oil corporation took all these money and didn't pay back to Indian oil corporation. Yes they had some losses, but I highly doubt it being significant.
Melamchi were supposed to be complete years ago, but what is going on there?
Hydro-projects are never given much attention or the ones which got completed cost more than the double amount they were estimated for. Who took all these money?
Water and Energy (electricity and fuels) are the most important thing. But it seems like we are ready to give up on these and rather live on our dream-land without these basic necessities. Yes, I am also biased, and I blame maoists for the current situation in Nepal. They were the ones who made fire out of these sensitive ethnic issues and they were the one who asked for constituent assembly. Look at another pig named Mohan Baidya who never want the constitution to be made and prolong this stagnation. Why do these monkeys get so much respect everywhere they go to? In Nepal, I can totally understand. But look at the diaspora including US, so many of us are ready to lick their boots as soon as they arrive at the airports here. So the blame goes to all of us; no one is spared.
