---------------------------------------------------------- deuba is the trojan horse that the palace had been employing to strengthen its position. he is the super agent of the palace ... and i'm not surprised. he was the one who gave a blank check to the palace and to the army, in effect underwriting Gyanendra's autocratic rule. it was during his PMship that the USA was able to grab a space to meddle in Nepal's internal affair. if he was fired from his PMship twice then that was quite possibly part of a grand design to which he himself had signed on. imprisonment of deuba - what an engineered farce!!!! people are right to be seriously suspicious of deuba's intentions, given his track record. making king the supreme commander of the army will be a big mistake!! it would not redress the shortcoming of the 2046 constitution that gave rise to the Maoist insurgency in the first place. does deuba really think that the people want to go back to the royal democracy of the post-2046 Nepal? he must be kidding! deuba's attempt to save the fallen king is really the last pistol shot of a dying man ... neither has any relevance to today's Nepal. deuba's party resides in pointlessness, because it actually behaves more like a RPP than a Girija-led Congress Party. now that the royal ministers and the royal heads of armed police, pradhan senani etc have been discredited, the palace will try to influence the outcome/political developments through the political parties - that of deuba's as well as of reactionary RPPs. the palace has got moles / agents inside these parties. by and by they, too, will join the chorus begun by deuba as per the principle of disclosure. they will expose themselves for who they really are - moles / agents of the palace. the line will once more be redrawn between those who are for loktantra with power vested in people, and those who want, as deuba clearly does, royal democracy. we now know which side Deuba is on as clear as daylight. --------------------------------------------------------
