Elixir, I wrote - ठीक ठाँउमा परेको छ, तर कारणमात्र केहि कमजोर छ, because Karima picked the right person to slap for wrong reason, the vehicle, if that was the only reason. In her interview with Kantipur prime time journalists, she put the details, and revealed how the journalist are hell bent to just highlight the vehicle issue. All the news reports came without mentioning a single word about the attitude problem that the CDO has but they repeatedly mentioned about the vehicle. Did you have seen a single picture of the vehicle yet? Why? Is the vehicle disappeared? Probably, the vehicle is indeed very bad, such that by bringing it on the media might backfire the CDO and his Chamche journalists. If I would be there at the shoe of the minister facing such humiliating attitude, I would have slapped him too. Everybody knows that a large number of pahadi bahun bureaucrats have pretty wrong attitude toward Terai people.
Do you know - a few weeks before, another Terai minister Sarvendra Shukla was humiliated by another CDO, who refused to meet the minister during his District-visit. Poor minister went to complain the home minister and PM, both of whom promised to take action against the CDO. Neither the case came out to public, nor any action was taken against the notorious CDO. Now, after this incidence, no CDO dare to neglect the local leaders of different race/ethnicity.
I don't know what good she did as Mantri, nor do I think she is a good Mantri. But still, being uneducated, coming from backward society, she used her THAPPAD to make people realize the consequences of irresponsible attitude. I liked that. Take a note, you will notice a great reduction of attitude-problem among the bureaucrats from now on because of this incidence.
