Everything points to what you guys are saying, I am still trying to see if there's any legitimate reason at all. Bhaktey, what you said seems to be the case in general. It still is hard for me to believe that 100% of Maoists (and fringe parties) priority is to divide the country or play the game of divide and conquer. Not one of them have the leader who finds issues with this division? Perhaps the voice is muzzled, more likely: they value their party more than they value their country. But I want to hear from the both sides and am really looking for the reasoning from the other side.

As for Madhesi leaders, I really don't blame them for demanding one-madhesh. Throughout the history, they have been mocked, ridiculed and oppressed. Our President is a madhesi, but how many other top guns are there in higher position (non political) from madhes? I know after the "jana-yuddha," we have realized our mistakes and we want an inclusive country; but I cannot blame them from being cautious and possibly wanting their own sovereign state. They will demand it, but the democracy rule states the decision has to be made on the behalf of entire Nepal; last election has given the mandate to the leaders and clearly stated that Nepal prefers unified Nepal, not divided (that too ethnically).

Any viewpoint from the other side?
