Gyanguru,

This is the irony for us Nepalese. We got rid of the Monarchy because we thought we weren't developing fast enough. We thought that having a democracy would make us develop faster. Now we have more chaos, and we are ready to compromise the freedom of our democracy so that we can get...get what? Forget development.

But...isn't that really what the Monarchy was in the first place?
