Not everything is black or white.
1. 90% passed the constitution. How many were absent? Why was the constitution passed in haste? Why was there no discussion in the House(sambidhan sabha)? Why India was not consulted? They were surprised and had to send special envoy after the constitution passed, two days before it was going to be promulgated. It is an internal matter, but we have been in bed with India for far too long to play this card. Madhav Kumar asked for his daughter's scholarship in AIIMS when he visited Delhi. Every leader begs for something when they go to India. Now they have come to collect. Deal with it.
2. Some, not all, issues are genuine. Top government jobs requiring hereditary citizenship. Head of State, Head of Army I can understand. But, the rest of the government should be open to all citizens, naturalized or hereditary.
3. Citizenship issue. Current provision is to wait 15 years after marriage, I think. India wants automatic citizenship on application. I am sure we can come to some sort of understanding in the middle, like 5 years.
4. No country divides constituency based solely on the population although population is an important factor. Neither USA nor India does it. If it is going to be a bi-cameral legislature have one house based on population and the other based on geography. Example: Upper house gets 75 member for 75 districts and lower house can have, let's say 300 seats that they can be divided by population.
Side note: This idea of proportional representation is being used by party leaders like MKN to get a seat even when they lose and become Prime Minister even when the voters slapped his face in direct election. Such a shame! It was supposed to increase women and under-privileged participation not re-elect loser leaders.
5. As far as gerrymandering is concerned, all democracy have it. It is a product of democracy. California and Texas both involve in gerrymandering practices to maintain their party majority.
6. For those expecting a 100% perfect constitution, I'll have some of what you're having.
7. China doesn't give a rat's ass. Nepal doesn't mean shit. No it is not of strategic importance, idiots. Pakistan is of strategic importance to China, not Nepal. China is not going to lose the peace and little bit of friendship they have developed with India for Nepal. Besides, the real China is far far from the China-Nepal border.
8. Madhesis are marginalized. Well, so are the rest of Nepalese outside the valley. It has been a Kathmandu centralized government. Its not racism if you are being equally neglected like the hilly and himalayan regions. Whoever says madhesis have been marginalized for centuries needs to go and visit some of the places in humla and far western nepal. Compared to that, Madhes has been doing far better.
9.As far as the issue that 3/4 Madhesi leaders that went to India were losers in the recent election. Come on, that's our thing. I think that makes them even more Nepali. We have the habit of giving power to people who lose elections.
