Mr. Shaiva, Thank you for your input. 1.First of all I will not dare notlabel "subject" to the nepalese. But you are free to have your opinion. 2. I am not searching for "great leader" leaders are already among us, only problem is present system is such that only corrupt/illitriate/potentially immature ppl are being pushed forward. 3.Kings are the part of the dead system. I do not know why we are giving them so much importance. If political parties are able to win the ppls heart. King can be neglected very easily. But, it seems that instead of winning ppls heart parties (including maoists) are trying to win kings heart. Maoist want to have "golmach" sammelan with King, what asatire. Why Maoist/Amale/Kangrss conduct a "golmach" sammelan, participate in the election, form the government. Thus formed governement can devote itself entirly for the benefit of the ppl and in 5 yrs time King will be out of picture. But, no we want to talk with king or only his representative (maoist are saying that) what is so special about king? 4. For general ppl like me, present crisis is like three mafia gang fighting to show their muscle power. Ordinary ppl will always suffer whichever maffia gang is in power. 5.If parties beleive in ppls power do "golmach sammelan" among themselves but, no, they need king. Its political parties that is making King stronger, no one else. 6. It seems that parties either do not beleive or do not have self confidence that they can win election and work for the ppl and base their power on ppl not on king. 7.They always wanted king in a silver "Kisti" handover the power to them and say ok guys here is the power and now you are free to do "Locknow loot " in the country. Allow me to quote followings from a paper I read few yrs back. The winner says it may be difficult but it is possible The looser says it may be possible but it is too difficult The winner is always a part of the answer The looser is always a part of the problem Enjoy the life
