bidwan-jee, What you don't realize is that (b) is a constant and present in every Nepali political equation. Your (a) already has (b) in it...You just don't realize it... So it's like this: Let's say you must choose one from the two debts: b) X = i a) Y = X + k Where (i > 0 and k > 0 because i = India; k = King) Would you prefer to have debt a over debt b? Do a simple math! Plug-in the numbers!
