Nalapani,
Not that I enjoy talking to people like you, but I wonder what you think of the fact that Malaysia, Singapore, Korea etc were like Nepal in 2017 Bikram Sambat but the difference was so magnified when your favorite system (pachayat) died in 2046.
Lesson: don't use the examples that neither proves nor disproves your statements.
Here are facts: In 2046, there were 951 doctors, today we produce more than that per year. The whole export import of our country was at the hand of 25 families. People were not even allowed to have passport and only those well connected could go abroad for study etc. Today, the situation is so different. There were about 2000 Km roads. In the next eight years, 12000 Km roads were built. (Maoists, who are in principle same as Panchayat --they both are against democracy--would destroy this trend). Telephone was at the hand of less than 1% household in 2046. Today it is at the hand of more than 30%. Electricity was connected at less than 9% households, today it is like 50% and increasing. (of course, there is this loadshedding). There are so many hospitals today than in the past. There are many more airlines. There is a free press. This despite the fact that Maoists screwed us big time, the mad prince gunned down a scheming king and brought country to another level uncertainty.
I can defend democracy in several ways. It is not perfect, but it is priceless and is better than anything we will have or we had. We must defend and improve on it. I pity people like you or Shantipriya, who I guess must be related to some bitter Mandale of the past, because you can't see the truth and select a few lousy data to buttress your lousy argument.
