The voters of Kathmandu have always done a good job electing unique rather anti-establishment candidates with few exceptions.Padmaratna has always been considered a left-wing.He seem to have enjoyed the non-conformist norms of capital voters. Kathmandu slapped the pro-panchayat candidates by electing mayor and deputy-mayor of banned parties in 2043 B.S. election.Similarly by electing firebrand Madan Bhandari who had challenged the white elephant couple blocks from his microphone:). I wondered who would the legal voters of Kathmandu elect if elections were to happen today. Impessively,they have always been flowing against the wind while electing their representative. Who would you vote for? I would vote for a nepali version of "Ernesto che-Guevara".If it he had existed and decided to run for the public office.:).I am in a desperate search for "Che" at this time. Don't refrain this is democracy in action.
