Logical reasons for ousting king

Copycat, I don't know about Girija, but I doubt about Prachanda being able to be president or prime-minister in the context of maoist atrocities. He can never get mandate from people to be president considering half of population in Nepal is now Madhesh, and he lost support from that region already. I don't know which party or which personnel is close to whom in India. May be you're right. But you mentioned that with King, Nepal will be Nepal, and you mentioned that other problems are minor and let king save the integrity and sovereignty of Nepal. We had that integrity and sovereignty in last two century of king's rule, didn't we? So what went wrong? Ask the meaning of those to poorest people dying from hunger in Humla and Jumla. What do they care about? Isn't the feeding of them more important than anything else? I strongly disagree to consider other problems minor. Other problems are the most important things. To maintain at least the basic necessities like food, clothes, shelter, electricity, drinking water, health care, transportation, and education facilities are the most important thing. I'm ready to follow anyone with concrete vision and plans to fulfill these things. But the reality is that none of current political powers (king, political parties, or maoists) have the vision to do at the moment. But I still have some hope that it will be realised in the presence of democratic system, and some good leaders will emerge. But I'm hopeless with either the maoists or king system because they care more to suppress people's rights, censorship than anything else. I agree that leaders are corrupted and selfish but at least they will also do something good. You're right again about creating biasness and cunningness from president system; that's why we need to create a good system to check all these, and prevent these things from happening. There can be a solution.
