Correct answers, but we can make it more 'Right.' Here is a question. You are a well educated youth residing in some remote village of Nepal. Your family has vested much of their property in your education and now you are frustated because there are no job matching your skill level available in the country. You keep hearing high promises from political leaders and have hardly seen it materialize; 2 months back family of your close friend were brutally traumatized by district police/army in a recent interrogation. With no potential source of income in sight what do you do when they hand you a Gun and tell you to march forth to get your 'Rights?' If not, you will probably face even worse consequence. Maoist problem cannot be solved by killing them alone. I already zeroed in on two key points that needs to be present to solve the present plight of Nepal: 1. Economical and 2. Political Stability. Crime rate goes up as unemployment rate goes up, no brainer (http://www.cs.umd.edu/class/spring2002/cmsc838f/Apps/presentations/Haixia_Zhao/). Political leaders take advantage of a weak government. Both situations have to be solidified to march ahead and we have to lay foundation for that. Lets be objective and focus on the solution now. My thoughts on 'solution' will follow.
