नगर चुनावमा भागलिने उम्मेदवारहरूको कमी : बिबिसी नेपालीसेवा

बिहिबार उम्मेदवार मनोनयन गर्ने अन्तिम दिन थियो
माघ २६ गतेका लागि तय गरिएको नगर निर्वाचनका लागि आवश्यक पदहरू भन्दा अत्यन्त न्युन संख्यामा उम्मेदवारी परेको विर्वाचन आयोगले जनाएको छ।
कूल ५८ नगरपालीका, उप महानगरपालीका र महानगरपालिका प्रमुख, उपप्रमुख, वडा अध्यक्ष र वडा सदस्य गरी ४,००० भन्दा बढी पदका लागि उम्मेदवारी खुला थियो।

उम्मेदवारी दिने समय सकिएको विहिवार सांझ छ बजेसम्म निर्वाचन आयोगमा प्राप्त विवरण अनुसार कुल पदको एक तिहाई भन्दा पनि कम अर्थात १,२०० जतिले मात्र उम्मेदवारी दिएका थिए।

यद्यपी आयोगका एकजना अधिकृतका अनुसार देशका विभिन्न नगरपालीकाहरूबाट उम्मेदवारको सूची आउने क्रम जारी छ।

चुनावका लागि राष्ट्रिय प्रजातन्त्र पार्टीबाट टुक्रिएको समूह र सदभावना पार्टी लगायतका साना दलहरूबाट र स्वतन्त्र उमेदवारहरूले मनोनयन दर्ता गराएका छन्।

निर्वाचनको विरोधमा ठाउँ-ठाउँमा जुलुस निस्कँदा भएका झडपहरूमा दर्जनौं घाइते हुनुका साथै सयौंलाई गिरफ्तार गरिएको छ।

शाही नेपाली सेनाको समेत कडा सुरक्षाबीच राजावादी पक्षधरहरूले पूर्वी नेपालमा नगरपालिकाको प्रमुख, उपप्रमुख, वडा अध्यक्ष र सदस्य पदमा न्युन मात्रमा उमेदवारी दर्ता गराएका थिए।

विराटनगरमा उमेदवारी

विराटनगर उपमहानगरपालिकाको प्रमुखमा १२ र उपप्रमुखमा १० जनाले उमेदवारी दिएका छन्।

अन्य पदहरूमा २५० को हाराहारीमा उमेदवारी दिइएको बताइएको छ।

बलिउडकी कलाकार मनिषा कोइराला नेपाली कांग्रेसका स्थानिय विद्रोही नेता विनोद अर्यालका साथ उमेदवारी दिने स्थलमा पुग्दा उनलाई हेर्न मानिसहरूको भिड लागेको थियो।

सातदलका कार्यकर्ताहरूले नायिका मनिषा विरूद्ध नारावाजी समेत गरेका थिए।

तर विहिवार आह्वान गरिएको नेपालबन्दका कारण विराटनगरको अति व्यस्त इलाका पनि सुनसान थियो।

उमेदवारी दिन चाहनेहरूलाई भने कडा सुरक्षा दिएर निर्वाचन कार्यालयमा पुर्र्याइएको थियो।

जनकपुरमा निर्विरोध

जनकपुर अञ्चल क्षेत्रका विभिन्न नगरपालिकाहरूमा पनि निर्वाचनका लागि उमेदवारहरूले आफ्ना मनोनयन पत्र दाखिला गरेका छन्।

नेपालबन्द र विरोध कार्यक्रमका कारण कतिपय ठाउँमा स्थिति तनावपूर्ण बनेपनि निर्वाचन आयोगको कार्यालयमा अप्रिय घटना चाहीं भएन।

तर जनकपुर नगरपालिकाको निर्वाचनका लागि पर्याप्त संख्यामा उमेदवारी नपरेको र दुईवटा बडाहरूमा कसैले पनि उमेदवारी नदिएको हाम्रा सम्वाददाताले जनाइएको छ।

केही वडाहरूका अध्यक्षहरू निर्विरोध निर्वाचित भएका भएपनि मेयर र उपमेयरहरूमा भने अपेक्षाकृत बढीले उमेदवारी दिएका बताइएको छ।

तर विहिवार बेलुकीसम्म पनि कतिपय नगरपालिकाहरूमा उमेदवारी दिनेहरूको अन्तिम नामावली प्रकाशित भएको छैन।

मध्य, सुदूरपश्चिमको स्थिति

मध्य र शुदूर पश्चिम क्षेत्रमा पनि नगरपालिका निर्वाचनका लागि उम्मेदवारी दिने कार्यमा उत्साह नदेखिएको बीबीसी नेपाली सेवाका नेपालगंज सम्वाददाताले जनाएका छन्।

नगर प्रमुख र उप-प्रमुखमा उम्मेदवारी दिनेहरूको अभाव नदेखिएपनि वडा अध्यक्ष र सदस्य पदका लागि उम्मेदवारी दिनेहरूको संख्या भने पर्याप्त थिएन।

महेन्द्रनगरमा सर्वाधिक सातजना र दैलेखमा पाँचजनाले नगर प्रमुखका लागि उम्मेदवारी दिएका छन्।

तर उपप्रमुख पदमा उम्मेदवारी दिनेहरूको संख्या दैलेख र दा‌ङ्गको घोराही रहेको छ‌ जहाँ पाँच, पाँच जनाले मनोनयन दर्ता गराएका छन्।

सबैभन्दा कम उम्मेदवारी ११ वडा रहेको धनगढीमा सबै गरेर सात जना र १७ वडा रहेको नेपालगंजमा सबै गरेर १० जनाले दिएका छन्।

नेपालगंजका १३ वटा वडामा उम्मेदवारी नै परेन भने धनगढीका नौवटा वडामा कसैले उम्मेदवारी दिएन।

नेपालगञ्ज नगरपालिकाका लागि नगर प्रमुखको उम्मेदवारी दिएका एकजनाले श्रीमतीको दवावमा दिइसकेको उम्मेदवारी फिर्ता लिनु परेको थियो।

oor show worries the govt., nominations filed for one-third municipal seats only

As life remained crippled throughout the country and opposition activists clashed with police to enforce their shutdown strike on Thursday, candidates filed their nominations for around one-third of the seats of 58 municipalities for which elections are taking place.

According to preliminary reports, activists belonging to major political parties stayed away from the municipal polls slated on February 8. Those who turned Iup to file nominations despite Maoist threats and protests by the opposition activists were either independents or affiliated to the dissident group of the Rastriya Prajatantra Party (RPP) led by Home Minister Kamal Thapa, minister in the royal cabinet Nepal Samata Party led by minister Narayan Singh Pun and Nepal Sadbhavana Party led by minister Badri Prasad Mandal.

Five people have filed their nominations for the post of Mayor of Kathmandu Metropolis while three for deputy Mayor. Those vying for the post of Mayor include Rajaram Shrestha of RPP (Thapa), Prachanda Lal Shrestha of Save The Nation, Uttam Adhikari of Rastriya Jana Rajya Parishad, Dhan Bahadur of Nepal Samata Party and independent candidate Shanta Chitrakar.

In Lalitpur, Madhu Shah of Nepal Samata Party and Shambhu Gajurel of Nepal Swatantra Party signed up for Mayor while Juddha Bahadur Thapa filed his candidacy for deputy mayor.

Reports from outside the capital say very few candidates have filed their nominations for various posts of the municipalities.

In eastern town of Biratnagar, 12 candidates have filed their nominations for the post of Mayor while ten candidates are vying for the post of Deputy Mayor. Over 200 people have filed their nominations for various posts.

Concerns related to personal safety in the aftermath of the killing of a probable Mayoral candidate, Bijaya Lal Das, in Janakpur and abduction of a mayoral candidate in Bardiya by Maoists discouraged people to contest for the polls, among others.

In Nepalgunj, a candidate withdrew his nomination for the post of Mayor owing to pressure from his wife. Only ten people have filed their nominations for various posts of the Nepalgunj municipality. Similarly, in the far-western town of Dhangadhi, only seven people have filed their candidature.

Reports say poor show right in the beginning of the election process for the municipal polls has worried the officials. An Election Commission spokesperson however said he was happy to note that nominations had been filed across the country without any disturbance. nepalnews.com by/ia Jan 26 06

From Kantipuroneline:
Nominations filed for only a fourth of total municipal seats
Kantipur Report
KATHMANDU, Jan 26 - As the deadline for the candidates to register for the upcoming municipal elections ended Thursday evening, nominations were filed for less then one-fourth of the total seats of the municipalities across the country.
Candidates have filed their registration in only about 1000 of the total 4146 posts in the 58 municipalities across the country.

236 mayoral candidates, 192 deputy mayoral candidates, 706 ward chairman candidates and 1943 ward member candidates have filed their registrations, the Election Commission informed at 8:30 this evening.

About one third of the total candidates who registered for the polls today are expected to be elected unopposed, including mayoral candidates in six municipalities.

As the mainstream political parties including the Nepali Congress, CPN-UML, Nepali Congress-Democratic, Rastriya Prajatantra Party (RPP)-Rana faction, Rastriya Janashakti Party, Samyukta Jana Morcha, Nepal Majdoor Kisan Party and Nepal Sadbhawana Party (Anandidevi) have announced to boycott the polls, no single candidate from the recognized national political parties has registered for the municipal polls.

Most of the candidates who filed their nominations at the Election Commission (EC) represent the parties of royal cabinet members while a majority of them are independent and newly registered smaller parties.

A large number of candidates across the country are from Home Minister Kamal Thapa-led RPP and royal cabinet members Badri Prasad Mandal’s Sadbhawana Party, Narayan Singh Pun’s Nepal Samata Party, RPP-Rastrabadi.

Due to the Maoist threat and the agitating seven-party alliance’s appeal to actively boycott the elections, no such significant number of candidates registered their candidacy.

Ten persons have filed their candidacy for the post of Mayor in the Kathmandu Metropolis while eight have filed for the post of deputy mayor. Rajaram Shrestha from Kamal Thapa-led Rastriya Prajatantra Party is among the possible mayoral candidates.

Shrestha, along with more than 100 candidates for the posts of ward chairmen and members, registered his nominations at the Rastriya Sabha Griha, the venue for the registration in Kathmandu today.

Chairman of the Save the Nation party, Prachandalal Shrestha and chairman of Social Democratic Party, Shanta Chitrakar also filed their nominations for the post of mayor of the Kathmandu Metropolis.

However, some of the wards of the Kathmandu Metropolis have remained vacant as nobody filed their registrations.

The Election Commission did not provide the name list of the ward chairmen candidates of Kathmandu.

Only a few people were seen entering the election venue at Pradarashani Marg this afternoon to register their candidacies for the posts of ward chairmen and members of the Kathmandu Metropolis.

Likewise, four persons filed their candidacy for the post of mayor in Lalitpur Sub-Metropolis while seven filed for the post of deputy mayor.

In Kirtipur, three mayoral candidates and one deputy mayoral candidate filed their candidacy.

Amidst tight security, the political activists from the alliance chanted anti-election slogans around the Election Commission in the capital today.

Most of the candidates were seen encouraged by the government announcement of providing insurance to all the candidates taking part in the polls.

The EC said it will provide an insurance of Rs 700,000, Rs 600,000 for mayor and deputy mayors respectively and Rs. 500,000 for the candidates of the post of ward chairman.

Meanwhile, Maoist rebels have abducted a mayor candidate in Guleriya, Bardiya.

The rebels abducted Ram Kumar Tharu, who is a central member of Nepal Sadbhawana Party, from his residence Wednesday night, according to family sources.

Four candidates have registered the mayoral candidacy for the Madhyapur Thimi Municipality.

In Bhaktapur Municipality, just a single nomination for the posts of mayor and deputy mayor each were filed today, while five mayoral and two deputy mayoral candidates offered their candidacy at Thimi Municipality.

A possible candidate carrying a flag with a pro-republican slogan was barred from filing his candidacy in Bhaktapur.

Police stopped Bhani Prasad Kheju from entering the district administration office to file his candidacy.

In Biratnagar, Puspa Raj Dahal, an independent candidate was the only person to offer a candidacy. All together 30 people have filed their candidacy for the posts of ward chairperson in Biratnagar, according to our correspondent.

However, in Palpa’s Tansen Municipality, no registration has been made till this afternoon.

In Pokhara Sub-Metorpolis, six persons filed their candidacy for the post of mayor while only one person offered his candidacy for the post of deputy mayor. Seven of the total 18 wards of the Pokhara Sub-Metropolis are without any candidates. Bhimsen Thapa, of the Thapa-led RPP, is among the mayoral candidates in Pokhara.

Our Baglung correspondent reports two persons each have offered their candidacy for the posts of mayor and deputy mayor in the Baglung Municipality.

Reports from Dang say two mayoral candidates filed their candidacy at Tribhuvan Municipality while three candidates offered their candidacy for the post of mayor at Tulsipur Municipality.

Likewise, four persons each filed for the post of mayor at Itahari and Siddartha Nagar municipalities while at Dharan and Bharatpur municipalities five persons each filed their candidacies.

In Nepalgunj, of the three mayoral candidates who filed their candidacy, Bhuwan Krishna Shrestha form Rastrabadi Milan Kendra withdrew his candidacy after his wife’s request.

Our correspondent Janak Nepal says Shrestha’s wife went to the election registration venue and emotionally appealed to her husband.

Reports coming in say two mayoral candidates each in Bhadrapur, Mechinagar, Birendra Nagar and Lahan offered their candidacy while one each in Sirha, Dhankuta, Butwal and Tansen filed their nominations today. However, no candidacy was registered at Tansen for other posts.

Similarly, three mayoral candidates each in Khandbari, Kamala Mai, Ram Gram and Lekhnath municipalities offered their candidacies.

Meanwhile, the Nepali Congress party, Morang, today expelled Binod Aryal from the party’s general membership for five years after he filed his mayoral candidacy in Morang.

According to our correspondents, eight mayoral candidates filed their candidacy at Birgunj Municipality while seven candidates each filed their candidacy at Hetauda and Bara municipalities.

Most of the posts in the several municipalities across the country remained vacant due to the alliance’s appeal to boycott the elections and the Maoists’ threat to take action against those who participate in the elections.

The Chief Election Commissioner today said that the Commission is planning to bring a new registration programme for the vacant posts of the municipalities. (snn)

जर्वजस्ती उम्मेदवारी, उम्मेदवारको घरमा रुवावासी
अधिकांश नगरमा उम्मेद्‌वारी नै परेनन्
स्वतन्त्र समाचार सेवा, १३ माघ २०६२, काठमाडौं
प्रमुख संसदवादी दलको सक्रिय बहिष्कार लत्याउँदै ज्ञानेन्द्रको सरकारले गर्न लागेको नगर निर्वाचनका लागि ५८ नगरपालिकाका आंशिक स्थानमा मात्र उम्मेदवारी दर्ता भए। उम्मेदवारको अभावमा कतिपय ठाउँमा सरकारले जर्वजस्ती उम्मेदवार उभ्याएको थियो। सात दलको सक्रिय बहिष्कार र माओवदीको धम्कीका कारण सरकारले आफ्नो साधनस्रोतको दुरुपयोग गर्दै उम्मेदवार ओसारीरहेको थियो।

काठमाडौं महानगरपालिकाका सातवटा वार्डअध्यक्ष पद उम्मेदवार विहिन बन्यो। त्यस्तै, ललितपुर उपमहानगरपालिकाका साथै कीर्तिपुर, भक्तपुर र मध्यपुर ठिमी नगरपालिकाको पूरा स्थानमा उम्मेदवारी पर्न सकेन।

राष्ट्रिय प्रजातन्त्र पार्टीको सरकारी समूहले समेत उपत्यकाका सबै नगरपालिकामा उमेदवारी दिन सकेन। सरकारी राप्रपाले ललितपुरमा मेयर र उपमेयरका उम्मेदवार पाएन। महानगरपालिकाको मेयरमा पूर्व मनोनित उपमेयर राजाराम श्रेष्ठले सरकारी राप्रपाबाट मेयर पदमा उम्मेदवारी दिए। ललितपुरमा समता पार्टीका तर्फबाट मधु शाह मेयरको उम्मेदवार बनेका छन्। ललितपुरमा मेयरका उम्मेदवार ४ जना रहेका छन्। उपमेयरमा सात जनाले उम्मेदवारी दिएका छन्।

त्यस्तै, भक्तपुर नगरपालिकामा सरकारी राप्रपाका मेयर सुमित्रा मधुकर्मी र उपमेयरमा सूरज हाडा उम्मेदवार बनेका छन्। भक्तपुरमा मेयर र उपमेयरमा अन्य उम्मेदवार छैनन् भने १७ वटा वार्डमध्ये ११ वटा वार्डमा मात्र उम्मेदवारी परेको छ।

उम्मेदवारी दर्ता गर्ने अन्तिम समय साँझ ५ बजे तोकिए पनि ६ बजेसम्म उम्मेदवारी दर्ता गर्दा प्रहरीले रोक्ने प्रयास गरेको देखिएन। साँझ ६ बजेपछि उम्मेदवारी दर्ता गराउन गएका विष्णुबहादुर बरालको उम्मेदवारी सदर गराइएको छ। मेयर पदमै उम्मेदवारी दिएकी सुधा खत्री आफूले उम्मेदवारी नदिएको भन्दै सभागृह हलबाहिर निस्किएकी थिइन्। संचारकर्मीहरुले तपाईंको त नामावली छ नि भन्दा उम्मेदवारी फिर्ता लिने बताएकी थिइन्। त्यस्तै संचारकर्मीहरुले उम्मेदवारको नामावली माग्दा सुरक्षाका कारण दिन नमिल्ने काठमाडौं जिल्ला निर्वाचन आयोगका कर्मचारीले बताए। त्यस्तै देश भरका अन्य नगरपालिकाहरुमा पनि सबै स्थानामा उम्मेदवारी परेको छैन।

नुवाकोट सम्वाददाता ध्रुवकुमार रावलका अनुसार नगर प्रमुखको उम्मेदवारी मनोनयन गर्न गएको नेपाल समता पार्टीको समूहलाई नेपाल प्रहरीले स्कटिङ्का साथ पार्टी कार्यालयबाट निर्वाचन कार्यालयसम्म पुर्‍याएको छ। नेपाल समता पार्टी मेयर पदका उम्मेदवार धर्मबहादुर थापा लगायतका अन्य कार्यकर्तालाई प्रहरीले स्कटिङ् गरेको थियो।

गज्जब भो! मतदाता एकजनाले हजार भोट हाल्नु त छँदै थियो, अब तीन चार वटा नगरपालिकाको मेयर पनि एकैजनालाई दिए हुने भएछ! अब ग्यानेले सेनालाई ऊठाउने होला!

does it mean people support terrorist and terrorist backed so called democratic parties?

There is a sword hanging around the neck of the candidtates. Recently a Sadvana candidate was shot dead. Do not you think this give some insights?

"Does it mean people support terrorist and terrorist backed so called democratic parties?" No it only means they don't support the one of the biggest terrorists in the world--Mahila Sahu and his private army.

चुनावी गाईजात्रा

न बाजागाजा, न फूलमाला । न प्रस्तावक, न समर्थक । न जुलुुस, न घोषणापत्र । न अनुहारमा हाँसो, न आत्मविश्वास । न सार्वजनिक पहिचान, न जनपरिचालनको सामथ्र्य । मनोनयनपत्र भर्न सम्बन्धित निर्वाचन कार्यालयहरूमा पुग्ने उम्मेदवारहरू बिरालोझैं लुसुक्क पस्ने गरेका बिहीबार दिनभरिका दृश्यले निर्वाचन आफैंमा हास्यव्यंग्यमा परिणत भएको छ । न मतदातालाई आफ्ना उम्मेदवार थाहा हुन सकेको छ, न उम्मेदवारहरू नै आफ्नोबारेमा प्रचारप्रसार गर्न सकेका छन् । स्वयं उम्मेदवारहरूका आँखामा आतंक र अपराधबोध पाइनुजस्तो विडम्बना निर्वाचनका नाममा अरू के हुनसक्ला ?
राजाको एक्लो हठबाट निर्वाचनजस्तो शुद्ध लोकतान्त्रिक अभ्यास हाँसोठट्टाको विषय बन्न पुगेको छ । निर्वाचन राष्ट्रिय उत्सव हुनुपर्नेमा गाईजात्रा बनेको

छ । उम्मेदवारहरू व्यंग्यका पात्र भएका छन् । निर्वाचन र लोकतान्त्रिक प्रक्रियाको धज्जी उडाउने यो पर्याप्त छ । निर्वाचन गराई प्रजातन्त्रलाई पुनर्ताजगी दिने नाममा भएको यो गाईजात्राको न कुनै राजनीतिक तर्क छ, न व्यावहारिक उपादेयता । गाईजात्रा भन्ने टिप्पणी गर्दा एउटा सांस्कृतिक पर्वको अपमान हुन सक्ला तर निर्वाचन नाम दिइएको यो प्रदर्शनले नेपाल राष्ट्रकै खिल्ली उडाएको छ ।

देशका ५८ वटा नगर पदाधिकारीका लागि हुन लागेको भनिएको निर्वाचनका लागि करिब चार हजार पदका लागि अधिकांश उम्मेदवारी स्वतन्त्र नाममा परेको छ । एकपल्ट चोइटी सकेर चुनाव चिह्न बलजफ्ती जोगाइरहेको एकजना मन्त्रीको सद्भावनाबाहेक कुनै राष्ट्रिय पार्टीले भाग लिएन । गृहमन्त्रीको बल प्रयोगबाट भर्खरै चोइटिएको अर्को राष्ट्रिय पार्टी राप्रपाको विद्रोही गुटबाहेक परम्परागत रूपमा राजाकै पक्षमा रहेका पार्टीले पनि उम्मेदवारी दिएनन् । अधिकांश स्वतन्त्र, अपरिचित, अस्पष्ट उम्मेदवारहरू लुकिछिपी निर्वाचन कार्यालयमा देखापरे । निर्वाचन आयोगले सरकारको लहैलहैमा लागेर उम्मेदवारको फोटो पनि नचाहिने, प्रस्तावक र समर्थक पनि आवश्यक नपर्ने अभूतपूर्व सूत्र प्रयोग गर्‍यो ।

निर्वाचन आफैंमा आतंकको एउटा स्रोत भएको छ । मनोनयनपत्र भर्ने अघिल्लो दिन सरकारले उम्मेदवारको व्यक्तिगत दुर्घटना बिमा घोषणा गर्‍यो मानौं जनप्रतिनिधि चुनिन तयार व्यक्तिहरू कुनै दुर्घटनामा पर्दैछन् । उम्मेदवारी दिनेहरूलाई सुरक्षा निकायले सामूहिक रूपमा एक ठाउँ राखेर सुरक्षित रहने प्रशिक्षणहरू दिन थालेको छ । राजाको प्रत्यक्ष शासन सुरु भएपछि विभिन्न नाममा खुलेका समूहहरू देखिएका छन् जसको कुनै सैद्धान्तिक, राजनीतिक र सांगठनिक आधार र साख छैन ।

निर्वाचन जनप्रतिनिधि छान्ने अनिवार्य अवसर हुनुपर्नेमा मुठभेडको नयाँ शृंखला सुरु गर्ने माध्यम बन्न पुगेको छ । प्रमुख पार्टीहरूले ँनेपाल बन्द’ गरी मनोनयनपत्र भर्ने तिथिलाई कालो दिनका रूपमा मनाए । निर्वाचनको मुखमा हजारौं राजनीतिक नेता-कार्यकर्ता बन्दी बनाइए, अझै दैनिक धरपकड जारी छ । कैयौं जिल्लामा कफ्र्यु यथावत् छ, सभा सम्मेलन गर्ने निषेधाज्ञा निरन्तर छ । सारा सचेत नागरिक समुदाय र राजनीतिक शक्तिहरू सक्रिय बहिष्कार गर्न बाध्य भएका छन् । हठपूर्वक लादिएको निर्वाचन इतिहासकै नमुना घटना हुन पुग्नुको दोष अरू कसैको हुन सक्दैन, राजाको बाहेक । न जनप्रतिनिधित्व हुने, न वैधता प्राप्त गर्ने, न संकट निकासको सहायक हुने यस्तो निर्वाचन प्रदर्शन गर्नु त्यही हठमात्र हो । राष्ट्रिय सहमतितर्फ कर्तव्यबोध गरी थोरै मात्र पनि विवेक प्रयोग होला भन्ने आशा गर्नेहरूलाई समेत झसंग पार्ने गरी बलपूर्वक सत्ता सञ्चालन गर्ने दम्भले द्वन्द्वको गहिराइ झनै बढाएको छ ।

Right now Nepalis are divided. A sajha pol on the front page also proves so. Naturally people want freedom and democracy. But still why people are not out there to join the force. Answer is simple. Parties need to stop playing with commoners.

Girijas recent move and past move proves so. These old farts need to go. Then only any sort of change is possible. Else the war with continue and so will be the struggle until new leaders are created among the mass to take on parties, maoists and also king.

peace out

Highfly,

Of course, I agree with you. Maoists are playing with guns and guns' politics is the enemy of the democracy. However, you have to admit that Gyane's guns are far more dangerous than Maoists' guns and Gyane's guns are killing more innocent people than Maoists's. Personally, I am against with the both guns.

When you wrote above post, did you remind yourself about these:

1. what had a terrorist Gyane have told when he staged a coup?
2. What was the royal slaves' (Dr. Tulsi Giri et al.) claim about the Maoists strength?
3. What about the crowds shown in state media when murder Gyane mis-used our tax money?
4. What about Gyane's salves claim of favorable conditions for election after Feb 1(The black day)?

I am not supporting Gyane. All those questions applies to 7 parties too. Innocents were executed during so called democracy too.

Inept 7 parties are not sub for Gyane's regime. Untill there is leadership change and reform, coomoners will be betrayed again.

I will not be surprised to see Girija or Makune as next PM under Gyane.

For the movement to become successful, these old farts should give chance to new and clean cheat polticians. But these fold farts need to be kicked out.

Human right violation in army and police is the result of lack of education and proper training. Army and police behaved the same when there was so called democracy and the same way now.

peace out

I agree with highfly. The Girija/ Makune & company is the main terrorist who created gyane terrorist and moaist terrorists. Until and unless completely new generation with totally new vision represents people's voice, lets not hope more except terrorism and civil war.

Election in the current situtaion is not practical. Deuba was not able to held elections. So is king. So will be all party govt.

I rather see king and party negotiating than parties and maoists.

I also do not think republic is a practical demand. Gyane will do anything to keep monarchy. So the result will never ending escalation of violence.

Thats why I think, parties should work to bring king under constituion and also internal reform to streng then parties. Parties should let go their corrupt and inept leadership.

The violence and damage of infrastructure in KTM is the result of the mob. A mob created due to the lack of proper leadership.

There still time to tame the situation in Nepal before it results into another Lebanon or Afghainsthan. A street to street war between all the different factions.


Also I would like to see change in approach of the so called internet democrats. If they want to increase and generate support, they should be inclusive rather than sidelining opposing views.

Let me use some mgmt theory. When change is introduced, there are lotta opposition. The change leaders have to convince that change is necessary and its for good for the successful transistion.

Simply by labeling anybody with opposing views will only result in decrease in support.

peace out

General, this might sound too general but Nepali people are to blame for our conditions. If it wasn't for our incompetent "so called democratic leaders" we wouldn't be having a discussion about gyane. the questions posed above by you
What about the crowds shown in state media when murder Gyane mis-used our tax money? TAX, do we even fairly pay taxes. Businesses bribe the tax office to reduce taxes. How many individuals pay taxes fairly in Nepal? Did you ever question when Sher bahadur visited US on your tax money? Doesn't matter who is leading Nepal, they all will spend the money. Everyone is cheating everyone.
4. What about Gyane's salves claim of favorable conditions for election after Feb 1(The black day)? Who do you blame for this gyane or your so called democratic leaders? If they didn't boycott and do stupid things, we might have had elections.

The only thing that can save NEPAL is a total change in politics. Remove old timers and bring in well educated people who know what they are talking about.

I will be very frank with you, if given a choice between gyane, girja, makune, shere et al. I will choose Gyane. But that doesn't mean I don't like democracy. If ever there is a change of face and all these old timers go, I would prefer the real democracy.

What a joke...
This reminded me of the time when 34 candidates - all from different walks of life, filed for the post of prime minister one and half yr ago...
I cant help laughing.. hahahaha

Colorful candidates mark the day

Kantipur Report

KATHMANDU, Jan 27 - Radha Upadhyay, a peon at a school, knows little about politics and democracy. Nor has she any idea of what Dr Tulsi Giri calls - "re-energization of democracy".

She filed her candidature for the post of chairman of ward 4 of Kathmandu Metropolitan City in the upcoming municipal elections.

But it was not to participate in democracy, but to "please" her boss, the school headmaster of Basuki School at Pashupati Temple area.

Unlike most candidates who avoided journalists and cameramen, she faced questions from the media with elan, like a seasoned politician. Well almost. "My headmaster is here and I filed my nomination as per the request of my headmaster,” Upadhyay told journalists, as she emerged from the City Hall gate. "I do not know any politics and democracy."

When asked why she filed her candidature, she said, "The school does not give money to me." Was it for money then? She shied away and declined to say anything.

Sushma Sharma Baral of Nepali Shanti Kshetra Parishad wanted to become mayor of Kathmandu. So she went inside the City Hall. But returned soon.

Chairman Baral's reasoning was there was some technical problem about her 'party'. But her 'party member', some Ghanendra Basnet, said Baral's name did not figure in the voters' list!

A candidate who had arrived at Bhaktapur election office to file his papers was not allowed in after policemen contacted the officials inside. The reason? He had come with a banner which read jana ganatantra (people's republic).

The scene before the election offices was marked by conspicuous absence of political activity surrounding the filing of nominations. No sloganeering. No political activists.

Three fresh posters calling people to take part in the election were posted on the wall outside the office. A sack of flags belonging to Nepal Samata Party was lying against the wall.

Police were posted along the Bhrikutimandap Road and only 'candidates' who whispered into the waiting policemen's ears were allowed to enter the City Hall premises.

After the EC officials accepted their applications, all the candidates were taken upstairs and briefed about security arrangements. The candidates said they risked their life for the nation but said they would consult the Home Minsiter again in connection with security.

When asked about how he can go to the people for votes, Shanta Lal Karmacharya, a Social Democratic Party candidate for Mayor's post said, "It is the cadres who go door to door for votes."

Most aspiring candidates declined to reveal their identity too. The police then let them go without checking.

In Banepa Municipality, it was strictly a family affair. Ganesh Lal Shrestha and his wife Lila Devi Shrestha were the only ones to file for the post of mayor and deputy mayor.

It was another husband and wife affair in Nepalgunj, but of a different kind.

Bhuwan Krishna Shrestha, who filed his candidature for the post of mayor in Nepalgunj Municipality, decided to withdraw his candidacy as his wife reached the election office, weeping. He is the district president of Rastrabadi Milan Kendra.

Zonal Administrator Min Bahadur Pal and Chief District Officer of Nepalgunj, Binod Adhikari, were very frantic throughout the day. They were busy searching for possible candidates.

Then Pal called an emergency meeting of royalists and forced three royalists to file their candidacy. The BBC Nepali Service reported that police escorted aspiring candidates to the election office.
