Biswa, and the rest of the political enthusiasts, You made a mistake by saying that in world's eyes, Nepali people have shown that for their freedom, they can defy curfew and don’t care about being shot. Look how this freedom has gained momentum. Without maoist backing, it wouldn’t be as successful as it is now. Otherwise, leaders would have already moved the palace in the past protest that was going on since 2-3 years back, esp after Aswin 19, declaration by king. Maoist had warned every home at far distant villages to participate in the mass movement, if not serious action would take place. So, it was like that. I am writing you in this sajha from nepal. I am in Nepal, and I was in nepal during those movements and have watched this movement mentally, visually. Most of the demonstrators in the protests were from outside kathmandu Valley. How did they come here? There are just 16 lakhs Kathmanduites–so how come 20 -30 lakhs people as per the saying of leaders. So it is anybody’s guess–Maoist’s 100% backing. The people fighting in jungle against army will be ready to bare the chest to feel the bullets of security personnel in the capital city, kathmandu, the place their No 1 foe, where King Gyan..resides. International organizations have thrown millions of dollars to topple king–international groups were against the King, activists of SPA was giving further impulse to the movements, one or two media like Kantipur publications, has also hand if not much to make the movement successful. No one can stop the King to rule Nepal, if he wish. He could have been very much autocratic such as using maximum force to control the protests–who can stop him? Army is behind him. But if he had done, poor nepalese would have suffered more and more, nonstop grief. Look at Myanmar–what is going on there? The head is getting very autocratic, anysyongki is being jailed, does not listen the US, EU. In Pakistan–army general toppled the government and took charge; is that justifiable, but USA takes it for granted for its own interest and that is Osama bin laden being hiding in pakistan provinces. So everything is taking place in this world for its own interest, advantages–a narrow minded political structure. We don’t think for others–we think for our own sake, for our own mental attitude–be it correct or incorrect. Same is going here in Nepal. I am not royalists–royalists would not have such mental attitude to write such things here. Actually speaking I like no one–King, maoists, leaders. No one is doing anything for the poor masses. But for the sake of sovereignty and long lasting peace, I see king, maoist, leaders should unite together and go ahead for national development. One most important thing is–-if maoist, parties go together and place isolated–palace people will surely hatch a ploy to destabilize the country for its own benefit like said before, we do, think, act for ours own sake (i.e nature of narrow minded, dogmatic people). So, I say let bygone be bygones–political leaders should respect king and so people. These demonstrators are not only the people of the nation. Other people are also there. Many people in Villages, town, cities revere king like before. In democracy, everyone’s decision, statement counts–doesn’t it? It is up to the people to decide the role of king–not you and me. Shouting and abusing king will do nothing. Look at US, UK, India, China, there are united in the case of national integrity–all have the same voice and their economy is going good in exception to USA. What Nepal lack this time is visionary leaders who can sacrifice for the benefit of the poor Nepali living in villages. We need economic revolution not a monotonous political revolution. Economic revolution can only change the nations destiny not by the fruitless revolution that has no aim. By saying this i am not against the recent revolution, but this revolution should team up with vision–a vision to wake up, a vision to seed something new for all the masses. A vision to get outside of ourselves and begin to examine ourselves. Enough is enough–nations cannot bear further destruction and if the nations plight is ignored, external interference will surely make Nepal loose its virgin sovereignty. Matyang…..
