No one is in America and abraod because he will die hungry in Nepal. I know many a fren who had decent job and good financial standing back in Nepal are in America, Australia, UK, Japan, etc. Even if we go back to Nepal now, we can live at least a moderate life (may not be the same as we are living abroad).  No doctor will remain idle if they really go back to Nepal. Most of the engineers will also be employed. Since we all are trying to jump to the top of Mt. Everest overnight, the available resources may not be enough. Ultimately we point out our fingers towards politicians and say he/she is corrupted; s/he is useless, they are uneducated; they don't listen to the educated folks, so on and so forth. The country should have enough production and people should be productive, then only leaders can give enough monies!!! Isn't it?

Barring few ocassions (very rarely), have you ever seen doctors, engineers, professors, corporate executives lawyers coming out to the street and protesting againt the misdeed of the government? Isn't it their responsiblitiy to teach common folks, who are mostly uneducated (due to lack of opportunities) how to protest in decent ways? These common folks are doing in the same way whatever they learnt. But we proudly say situation in Nepal is really bad; we cannot go back to Nepal; we are shamed of being Nepali, Nepali Janatas are bheda and many more. 

Let's come back to the point.

- Who is there to scrutinize the documents/contracts? Where are the so called scholars; how many scholars and water experts have presented their atlernative views?

- Let's say, Interim Parliament doesn't have legitimate power, how long you are gonna keep the development in limbo; what do you think is the alternative way? We are educted people, we should give the clear answer. We can not blame the politicians again. If they shouldn't do that, what should they have done? Not only question, come up with answers.

- What is the alternative to dam breaks? If there are, you can give the advice.

- What should have been there in the contract in the event the principal/contractor's period is over? 

  I have no doubts you have raised good questions. We are expert in raising the questions, but have no solutions. Eventually we turn towards our politicians for excuse.
