Nepal lies between the two emerging global powers. We could have used this to our benefit by being a transit point. But does India really has a genuine interest in the well-being of Nepal? For example, at the wake of the software revolution, when Nepal was also preparing to grasp its share by being one of the first south asian nation to start building the silicon valley (in Banepa), due to the intervention of India and with consent of Nepali politicians, the project got sacked, though the building was already erected. As long as our politicians are non-patriotic and corrput, no one can save Nepal.
