I have read some opinions from pro-federalism people and I have found most of them to be ambiguous in nature and to be honest, more than assessing different aspects of federalism, they seem to pedal a hope that this will be the thing that will fix everything.

Aren't we Nepalis done with the hope pedaled by the hopeless politicans? The moaists pedaled so much hope that we forgave them for killing 15,000 innocent Nepalis. We are a hopeful bunch. We want to believe them because things are not right. We really need to take a moment to realize how feasible their empty promises are.

This really a very good article and I urge you to read and share. Fedaralism sounds good and would have been good under different context as outlined in the article, but in the context of Nepal it's a very very bad idea.
