The article has definitely addressed the major problems that the country right now is facing. But I have few comments to make upon few expressions being made in the article:- 01. Its true that Nepalese Army has remained loyal to the rulers only but then it is not their fault. They have simply followed what respective constitutions made them to do? Instead they must be encouraged to do so & remain faithful to the present coalition peoplel's 7 Party alliance government. Its just right time for The Chief Executive of the Government Girija Prasad Koirala to take them into confidence rather than cursing them due to their past loyalties. Only a weak leader passes the comments to cover up their failures but a strong able leader implements it and do the job and prove himself to be a real leader. 02. Its sad that Nepalese Military are being looked upon with doubting thumbs even now when King has been deprived of all his super powers. Now the real rulers are the people's representative running the government and Nepal Army will and must obey their orders. If you do not know how to drive your car , do not blame the engine!!! 03. Nepalese Army being the national army only have the rights to maintain the law and order of the nation & protect the people. How a State can entertain the clandestine Army Militia of Maoists who are yet to be recognised by the people and whose track record shows the brutalities and killings of the innocents. 04. How can the constituent Assembly election take place when Maoists freely carry their guns and point towards their opponents . Who would dare to challenge the Maoinst candidate ? Will Uday Bajracharya dare to fight the Maoist Candidate outside the valley or even inside the valley? In that situation will the Constituent assemply election be fair? 05. Nepalese people have made up their mind for the Republican state of Nepal and the King and their families must leave the country . They have crossed their limits of exploitations . They are totally responsible for making the country poor and dirty and people the beggar. They have drained out most of the national wealth. In the present day's context, to kick the Royal Family out of the nation , a ballet & people's verdict is needed not the parallel Millitia forces. If they are condoned , what is the guarrantee that the other group will not raise the arms? Then are U prepared to see the warlords in Nepal as well like in Afganistan? Therefore , Moaists must be disarmed first to have a fair freel constituent assemply elections in Nepal. 06. Weaker ethnic sections must be given proper opportunities and the monopolisations of brahmins and chhetris must be stopped immediately. But then they also must come forward and start building their career in the political fields. Leaders can not be created , they are born. 07. It seems Udayji is singing with tune played by Maoists. Asking Maoists to lay down their arms is not the sin . Whether Americans says it or Girija. Entire Nepalese people are hoping this armed conflict must comes to an end. United Nations has been doing their best to bring peace in the war torned zones but the job has never been that easy as we passing comments. Preaching is the easiest job than to practice. 08. Its rediculous to hear communists preaching for democracy. Communism never allow freedom of speech , freedom of movement & free elections but they are the one who advocates most for it. 09. Its a blatant lie that Maoists are the saviours of Minority. Whom they have protected so far. Infact , the majority of the maoists vicitms are the minorities. I hope Mr. Uday bajracharyaji will take a note of the above comments positively.
