Basantapur: I agree with your reasoning and the evidence that bring forth. As I said Democracy is the process of evolution. Nepali people with the leadership of parties began underground revolution from the time of Rana regime and the king Tribhuban himself stood and joined the process to bring about the change in governing logistics. As a matter of fact, Tribhuan is first person who brought the idea of National Assembly Election to create the constitution. But it did not materialized due his sudden death. Then congress party and king m did not agree but had national general election and congress won the election then king m disolved the parliament to bring despotic rule of law called Panchayat. You now the history. These all ups and down are the under current of Democractic evolution that has touch the conscience of man on the face of the earth. It is a brain growth process and thus enivitable. With the argument of how 12 years of Democracy failed does not stop Democracy to evolve as of this time people's movement that has become the ground evidence of current in the brains of humans in Nepal. Why did 12 years Democracy has failed in Nepal and thus king g grabbed the power. Not just like that, he has played more that 12 years undercurrent anti-democratic tactic such as helping Maoists, supporting royalists in the country and aboad, supporting RNA officers to make money for their family to build bangalows and keep peepas to wash the underwears of their wives, etc... so such upto the massacere of the entire family of king Birendra.. this is not just default but consequentials. Why did 12 years of Democracy failed was the political leaders lack of experience in the developments of the legislature that is logistics and rational. Legislature logistics are the process of law to execute or way to work out in the real time. For example, in district the Democracy had the elector body of District Chair or Governor. In this logistics the governor should have the executive body or administration cabinet to administrate the district. But political leaders could not eleminate the CDO from the legislature therefore the elected govenor was like the statue. That way the old oligargic legislature ruled the Democratically elected body of the constitution. I had talked with one of the priminister of Nepal at that time why you have this 2 contradictory body of administration in the district. He replied me in Nepali contect at this time the change is not suitable. He was otherday at Columbia university and I had remind his our conversation. In Democractic logistics to work a police office must be the resident of the district for at list 6 month to be elected as sherriff of the district. In the electrol process as the district chair, members of assembly get elected police sharriff or officer, autorney, judges and other body of legistatures, executive and judicery chairs must be elected. Then the elected body of all constituitional body chairs request for the office workers from the public commission to hire the post. A CDO, DDO, EDO all nominated officers from the central governments are not constitutional in the Democratic process. They should be reqested by the district chairs to fill the post as secretries who work under the constitution with district chair. Thus the 12 years Democracy failed not becasue Democracy failed in Nepal therefore Nepali people are not qualified for the Democracy as per royalists argument but failed because the lack of experience of political parties, plus they also were arrogant when they were in power, also civil society and members like you did not help them or rather were anti-political leaders, and media also did not favor them intelligently. We are all responsible for the failure and we are in the same basket. But you cannot go against current of the enivitable - that is the evolution of the Democracy in the conscience of hunan brain. The scientific development, technological revolution, the media and all will not work without the Democratic logistices and its evolution in history of man. In this evolution we must appreciate king Tribhuban and Birendra as human being who saw the light of Democratic evolution and its rational values for the man kind.
