>AGREE, IT'S YOUR RIGHT NOT TO . BUT I BELEIVE MANY OF YOU WHO'LL >READ THIS MAIL WILL CERTAINLY GET CLEAR ABOUT MANY THINGS. And in >due course, I'd be grateful to get your opinions as well. This way >we can interact and start to think about the country more seriously. >UNTIL AND UNLESS WE START A STEP, NO THING BIG WOULD BE ACHIEVABLE. >Believing on this, I am sharing my opinion. >"As we see the situation in Nepal, anyone would think that the >problem lies between the King, seven Political parties, and Maoists. >And why? What each of them wants? We'd find answers for that also. >One may say political parties want full-fledged democracy. Similarly >Maoists want the communism, and King wants to reestablish Panchayat >or something like that in other form. It may sound weird to you at >first, but I see this crisis in completely other way. This is not >any kind of conflict between Nepalese themselves. This is something >between India and Nepal. It's a grand and interesting game. At the >same time, highly challenging for both the states. > >Every one of us knows the Indian approach of trying to dominate >others, especially the neighboring countries. Defense and foreign >affairs related decisions of Bhutan are directly handled by India. >Nothing new about it, right? Which country in the SAARC except >Bhutan is happy with India? > >Forget SAARC, what about other neighbors? China? Burma? Mentioning >these issues just to rethink on India's foreign policies! Now let us >go to what's there between India and Nepal? Care to see it thru big >brother's side. > >India 's average economic growth rate has reached around 7.5% which >is one of the best in world today. India is second largest market in >the world in terms of population. Foreigners are seeing China and >India as the new markets of this age and investing here rapidly. >Bottom line is- India is developing. But how long people will invest >in India if basic infrastructure is not there? How much investments >would be there in Agricultural industry if outsiders don't see basic >irrigation facilities in the field? In other way, when other area is >developing, what about large Indian farmer population? When they'll >prosper if irrigation is not there? > >And most importantly, energy is vital for all development- >industries, technology and everything. India is not capable of >producing the required amount. India has successfully taken control >over Bhutan's energy resources and already started to have the >benefit. Bhutan is also getting something out of it but in cost of >sovereignty. > >Now comes Nepal's part. Nepal is second richest in water resource >having potential of large amount of energy. Enough energy to cater >India's energy need for industrialization and irrigation >and clean drinking water for eastern India (perhaps more than that). >For that, India can have straight business deals with Nepal. Take it >if u want, but please pay. But no! India wants all those in the way >they got from Bhutan. They want to have total control in any hydro >projects that'll be build in Nepal. They want to give us something >out of it- lot less value than what we deserve. Since history India >has been trying for this and as it was obvious for them to >getrefusal. In the mean time, foreigners wanted to invest in Hydro >projects in Nepal. But India always fumed and fretted for any >manipulation in rivers will lead to flood in India. So, all the big >projects were cancelled. > >India didn't stop. They wanted to get the resources according to >their desire. When Nepal refused, they came into games with long >vision. What I interpret the game could possibly be as such- Change >the non cooperative government of Nepal. Keep people in power that >will be ready to sell the resources of the country fro some money. >And if required, will be ready to sell the whole country. India knew >that until and unless royal family is in power, it's not possible. >This is because for the royals, Nepal is the only place in the world >where they will get highest degree of respects and they'd never sell >the country. For that, India played the key role to instill >democracy in 2046 and implant corrupted people in the government. >According to the plan, some leaders of ours sold out rivers and >lands during the 15 years. That we all know. > >Now India could not depend only on those dogs. For that, how to make >Nepal completely helpless in shortest period? So that Nepal will >come down on the ground with knees. There won't be any other option >remaining for Nepal and finally turn towards India and beg them to >utilize our own resources, and give some riots two feed Nepalese >twice a day. Attack on the source of economy was the simplest route >towards Nepal's bring down. And then something >happened out of blues. > >Maoists were born in western Nepal which is the hub of ayurvedic >medicine and one of Nepal's major exports. The area is still under >Maoists control and no one knows how much of yarshagumba is smuggled >from there every year. Country's revenue is going in vain. And let >us recall, it was Girija's tenure and whole Nepal knows how Maoists >flourished in no time. Besides that, major objective of giving birth >to Maoists was to attack the spinal of Nepal's economy- tourism. And >things happened accordingly. Nepal broke and got trapped into the >crisis we r seeing today. > >Now please don't doubt on who gave birth to Maoists. India was the >first to call Maoists as terrorists when Nepal government was still >calling it as insurgents. After that, US hit listed Maoists of Nepal >in top ten among the world terrorists. Nepal government never called >them terrorists those days. And in many cases, we have seen Maoists >leader making rounds to Delhi in the same fashion as Girija and his >daughter. The recent meeting between the parties and Maoists leaders >occurred in Delhi. How could India arrange the facility when Maoists >are terrorists? Do they want to send a message thatLashkar-e-taiba >should be entertained by governments of various nations? > >And surprisingly, nowadays Indian media do not right the word >"terrorists" for Nepalese Maoists. The respected word given by them >these days is "Nepal rebel". This is all happening because of the >slavish mentality India possesses due to 200 years of British rule. > >Anyways, now let us come to the major issue. After knowing all >these, I m not in a condition to agree that the dispute in Nepal is >for democracy. What I believe is it is for nationality. It is for >saving the nation. It is for raising the nation with what we have. >It is for replying back to all those who try to play with us. Now, >it's up to your intellect to identify who is working for what. What >King is doing, parties are doing, and Maoists are doing. > >It'll be a very appreciable opinion if you say what those pancheys >are doing again here? We should not forget that democracy is >nature's law. When you are born, you come along with your >freedom. No force can stop u for that. Let's see the cause and >what's happening around. Democracy within the boundary is so >important? Or democracy in a country will be there when a country >will b there? Let all Nepalese get together and stop the external >force for some time when Nepal will try to lift up in a position >from where no force would be able to bring it down. Democracy is >always there. When Nepalese can change the government in 2046, same >Nepalese can change the government again in 2066. And if required, >forever free Nepalese could change the system around the world. We >don't have to doubt in our capability. But the current need is not >"restore democracy" as India is saying. Current need for each and >every Nepali is to "save and raise the nation". When US envoy to >India made one statement related to India's nternal politics last >week, whole India shouted back to the ambassador. >This is something good we need to learn from Indians. When India, >and other far away nations are repeatedly trying to interfere our >internal matter,our corrupted media (do I have to name the media >which have bosses of NonNepalese origins? Or u find it yourself) is >not tired of singing their songs everyday. These Medias are >responsible for creating a pessimistic environment in the ation. >People are not protesting those external interferences which are >vital in present. Restoring Democracy is not the issue as far as I >understand. What if democracy is restored tomorrow immediately? Same >old faces who tried to help the neighbor more than own country >itself will be back to power. And the process of losing the nation's >independency which has been stopped temporarily through king's move >will get momentum again. > >But if Nepal and Nepalese succeeds to pause that external force for >some more time, its strength will be minimized. Many things can >happen within few years. Zest is- country first! Now, If you don't >agree on this, I m open to have your opinion.
