फेब्रुअरी १ को शाही-कदमको समर्थनमा डी. सी. र न्यूयोर्क मा केही पुराना राजावादीहरु, केही नवराजावादीहरु र केही आफु राजावादी नभएको तर बहुदलिय प्रजातन्त्रबाट मोहभंग भएको भन्ने शान्तिकामीहरुले गरेको ससाना प्रदर्शनलाई उनिहरुले "हजारौंले भाग लिएको विशाल पदर्शनहरु" भनेर नेपालको सरकारी संचारबाट प्रचार गराए ।

आजसम्म पनि नेपालबाट साथीसंगीहरु सोध्ने गर्छन्, के साच्चै अमेरिकाका सबै नेपालीहरु राजाको कदमको समर्थन गर्छन ?

र यस्तो प्रश्न मलाई मात्र होईन मैले कुरा गर्न पाएका लगभग सबै अमेरिका-सहवासीहरुलाई नेपालका उनिहरुका आफन्तहरुले सोध्ने गर्दा रहेछन् ।

भनेसी प्रोपेगाण्डा कार्यमा अमेरिकाका राजावादीहरुले क्षणिक नै सही तर ठूलो उपलब्धी हासिल गरेछन् ।

प्रोपेगाण्डाको लागि सरकारी मात्र हैन गैरसरकारी माध्यम समेत प्रयोग गरे आयोजकहरुले । 'नेपाली टाईम्स' मा एकजना आयोजक महोदयले डी. सी. को प्रदर्शनलाई 'बहुसंख्यकहरुको प्रतिनिधित्व' (majority representation) भनेर दावी गरे । स्वतन्त्र माध्यमबाट गरिएका यस्ता पुटले 'राजमुकुट प्रति प्रतिबद्ध' सरकारी माध्यमहरुले गरेको प्रचारका अविश्वसनियतालाई कम गरे हुनन् ।

एनिवे, "के साच्चै अमेरिकाका सबै नेपालीहरु राजाको कदमको समर्थन गर्छन ?" भन्ने नेपालका आफन्त संगीसाथीहरुको प्रश्नको उत्तर दिंदा दिंदा हैरान हुनु भएका प्रजातन्त्रप्रेमी साथीहरु डी. सी. को नजिक हुनुहुन्छ भने यही Sunday, May 15, 2005 का दिन White House अगाडि हुने Pro-Democracy Rally मा पाल्नुहोला ।

नेपे जरुर उपस्थित हुनेछ त्यहाँ तपाईहरुसंग न्यानो अभिवादन साटासाट गर्न ।

Newuser ji, Of course I take it as a healthy debate between the fellow sajhaities, unless some people tend to accuse ( no less ) others simply because they tend to have differing views. A healthy respect between two souls are must for a healthy constructive analysis and arguments. Let me start the note on this healthy respect that I have for you and other sajhaities who might/might not concur with my 'personal' beliefs. And please note, I understand the arguments raised by the people concerned with the rally, and have no reservation, moral or otherwise, of their rights and motives to hold one, but I do however I stand by my words on previous posting.

Now, newuser ji let me move on to your points."
Forget not taking part,....... prepared to take the criticism of being supportive to the King's camp or at least.............the country."

Let us not get too emotional here newuser ji, but you said I directly raised the question about the intention and purpose of the rally and when I do that, I should be able to face the 'criticism' for doing that. And I thought, reasoning would be a better choice. My reference regarding the rally was a result of bitter taste of many rallies that our nation has suffered. And when I try to point it out, I 'deserve' critism of being a king's camper (no less) eh? Woah, newuser ji, good logic.

My understanding however newuser ji is, this very logic or shall I say a rather obdurate logic is the root cause of rift between us Nepalese. If you are not with us, you are against us, eh? That is a good start to unite people for a mass movement I must say.

So my those comments saying "Hune kehi hoina.." "Dhunga muda garna paindaina etc" made me undemocratic. Isn't democracy all about agreeing to disagree and yet have a healthy reservation, arguments? Or is it agreeing to agree and if someone disagrees, term them as undemocratic?

"Secondly, you have been very critical of the Nepali leaders and at the same time you are unable to provide your service as a leader. May be politics is not your cup of tea, but if you cannot make any contribution for the betterment of leadership, you will loose your rights to criticize against any flaws from the leadership in the future that could have been avoided with the help of your contribution. Hope you got my point."

----->You said, if I am critical of the leader and am unable to provide the leadership, I loose my right to criticize against any flaws. That is truly democratic opinion now newuser ji. Does that mean if I can not provide leadership I should meekly follow the one who in my opinion is not a leader? Yes, I am unable to provide leadership just like 99.999999999999999999999999999% of Nepalese and also 99.99999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999% of people in the world. But that in no way shall curtain our rights to criticize the leader that you do not believe or have respect as a leader. Look around you newuser ji, does everyone around you go on the rallies, distribute pamplets, etc, against bush, putin, kerry, Clinton or whoever they do not hold in high regards? Does that inaction curtail them of their rights to criticize? So much for democracy.

I do not have any hard and fast solution to the problem newuser ji, and neither does anyone. Everyone now has a mere opinion & their personal beliefs. And we each have right to exercise our beliefs without accusing other.

To clarify more on my opinion & belief, I believe eventually Gyane have to give up his power, at least as an absolute monarch, and at best can remain as a symbolic institution much akin to England. He absolutely has to come under the law, like you and me. But my understanding is that day would come shortly once we satisfy the basic requirement that democracy needs to be nurtured, survive and florish. And needless to say that basic need is PEACE. Without it, democracy will be raped, stabbed, murdered time and time, yet again, just the way it is right now. Why should I in my opinion, go from one failing system to another with no hope and repeat the cycle yet again. In some time Gyane's failure or success to bring peace in broader spectrum will ultimately determine his and royalty?s fate. Regardless, absolute monarchy or monarchy above the law is not the option I stand for. I don't give damn even if it's abolished.

"Either you have to take the King's camp or the anti-monarch camp or your own camp of leadership, if you want to have your say on the issue."

----->You said either I have to at King's camp or my own camp of leadership to have say in the issue. ? Yeso gaar natra usoo gaar, natra chup bass.? I would damn well voice my opinion even if I am not in one of your so called camp. And your way of seeing is not the only way it is. And I do not EXPECT any Gyane, Nepe, you or me or anyone to bring overnight success.

?Prajantra layune bela ma maile dukkha garda oo guff lagaera basyo, aile prajantra aaepachhi bhaag khojne??
----> If a leader says that, then he of course a 'good leader'.

" If you think Gagan Thapa is not a leader, why don't you become a leader yourself or else why don't you show a third person who is the right candidate? And if you don't have any alternative, why do you resort in criticizing Gagan, who in many people's view is the best among the worsts."

----->Yeah anyone can become, eh? I don?t think he is a leader, then to prove that I have to be a leader, and someone would not agree I am a leader then s/he can be a leader. Leaders are not candies we buy in a candy shop newuser ji. And just because one can not provide leadership doesn?t have to loose his voice to criticize others. Imagine the scenario where everyone is a leader. In fact, that's exactly the scenario in Nepal. Leaders' mushrooms all over, and we blindly follow them. I am sick and tired of dozens and dozens of so called a leader who promises much but delivers none. As yet, no one has inspired me much to say, yeah this is the one I believe in, and it's your good that someone has yet again inspired you. Perhaps, someone might inspire me too in coming days. AS of now, it has not happened.

Vis-a-vis democracy and freedom, let's us imagine that some are walking on a holy path and others who believe in the same conclusion but are not concurring with the language and tune they are choosing, are opponents. If not anything, consider them brothers who have their own opinion, and if possible inspire them to believe in the path.
If you are not for us, you are against us will not lead anyone anywhere. At best, a half baked cookie is all one can get. Thus, let us hope that we can agree that our way is not the only way to do; it is not the only way to be.

( Newuser bro, mero pani lamo bhayo. And nah i did not take it otherwise. I know where you stand and you know where I stand. To each to there own.)

Now, to all those who support the cause for immediate restoration of democracy in Nepal, but are skeptical about the effectiveness of the rally that is being organized half way around the world...

First and foremost, my friends, please remember that it is a very simple matter of freedom of expression. If we are to deprive ourselves of our own very basic, fundamental rights just because of the fear of ineffectiveness of the rally, then we'd be no worse than the King who deprives his people of those very rights. The right to freedom of expression is OURS, and let us use it!

We all have travelled thousands of miles to an alien land because we all had our own respective dreams. Some of us will go back, others won't. Some of us may be seriously contemplating the idea of returning, while others just don't care -- those are the freewill of every individual that must be respected. Nevertheless, the differences in personal choices of ways of livings do little to undermine the love for the land that we all grew up in, and the place that we all can commonly dearly associate with. It is in this spirit that -- even though some of us may not be able to/or want to return to our beloved land -- the least we can do is show our support for those who are fighting for people's rights back home. Those who are risking jail, torture, or in some extreme cases "disappearance", to peacefully struggle for the much-needed genuine empowerment of the people are brave souls whom we must all have utmost respect for. Showing solidarity is one way to do so. And being at the rally is one way of expressing solidarity.

At this critical juncture in our country's history, it has become imperative that we all stop and think of what kind of country that we all desire say, in 20, or even 50 years from now. We have lived under autocracies of one form or the other for most of our modern political history. It is about time we began to let go of the concept of needing a "father figure" to guide us all the time. It is about time that we begin to have confidence in ourselves, individually AND collectively. And it is about time that we began to arouse better awareness among the people who still believe that an "individual" other than ourselves has the solutions to OUR problems. It is about time we fought absolutism of the King so that then we can effectively fight the tyranny of the Maoists, with the best weapon available: freewill of the people.

The rally is one way of making our voices heard, showing our support for all those who dare to believe in us, spreading our message of people's power, and creating better awareness amongst ourselves, so that when all is said and done, we will have a country that is thriving with democracy. There is absolutely NO alternative to democracy in a multi-ethnic and pluralistic society like ours.

Washington, DC, may 15th, Sunday. BE THERE!

How can you expect poeple to support freedom of speech and expression on empty stomach(For people in Nepal) ? Lets be resonable here ... As far I can see, I have not seen anything from any party or the King for me to give my support. I would urge fellow Nepalese to fully understand the purpose of these so called demonstrations before taking part in it. As I said before I don't trust any politicians or the king or the Mao's.

BRAVO, BRC!

Then you are one of us! As you said, we need not, and, yes, we MUST NOT, support any INDIVIDUAL -- be it a political leader or the King -- who have failed us miserably time and again to deliver anything for us. The rally, as I said, is about us, OUR dreams, OUR wishes, and OUR power to achieve those dreams.

Believe in OUR power, support DEMOCRACY and support OURSELVES. Together, you and I and all the other ordinary Nepalis can make a difference...ONLY if we are free!

Washington, DC, May 15th, Sunday. BE THERE!

Oh damn that was long. Newuser bro, sutera uthera feri padnu hola. Hahaha.

Nepe ji, thank you for your response. As I also have elaborated much of my beliefs and standing to the post for newuser, I'd also be as brief as possible.

Let me go point by point.
1) Regarding our abruptly ended conversation, if you have not been doing 'selective reading' you would have found many personal (yes personal not institutional) charges by the victims themselves in sajha on gagan. If you term them as baseless accusation, and personal bias then it is up to you. You can browse thru the link I provided in my previous post.

2) Yes apart from having a birth right I do have a moral rights too? My moral right arises from being "a law abiding citizen of Nepal", and with his oh so glorious history of vandalism, tyranny in his local college and being a pet dog of girija ( who he later oppposed after girija did not have kind words for him), I belief I have a moral right to oppose or rather not acknowledge him as a leader. By not acknowledging a wrong person as a leader in my belief, I am acting on "my moral right."

3) Yes, you are right.
And neither is being hell bent that you are doing everything to fix the system. I believe by not following the monkey ride to stardom, which was/is rather popular defect in our system, I am, at least in my opinion, fixing a tiny bit. Or is your way of fixing the only way?

4) I knew you would not be able to miss 'In disguise' phrase in your next comment. Yes I come to sajha in disguise, but make no mistake, there quite a few people who knows me. It is "my prerogative" if I do not want to be a public figure simply because I have no intention to be in limelight and pretend to be some sort of revolutionist. Yes, you have put your name, face (life?) online. What you might consider a brave act can also be considered as foolishness. And the manner you did it in response to Ashu's comment showed the level of patience you have. If you consider this is your bravado, all I got to say is there is a difference between bravery and stupid ness.

And Nepe ji, the major point of having an online forum like sajha is not necessarily publishing ones CV/resume, but to interact, express, argue, discuss, with the expression, arguments itself. Not with the person's face, name etc. Bichar ma kura garne ho, malai nata tapaiko naam sanga matlab cha na ta tapai ko kaam sanga.

5) So I am a part of a cyber mob. What are you? If for my personal beliefs based on my understanding, you term me as a mob that cyber lynch gagan and then refuse to talk about it, you are wrong. Did you hear me terming your logic and arguments akin to one Maoist at times? See, you have a belief in republic system (which certainly is an option we should consider) and they do too, but would it be correct to term you as Maoist based primarily on those views? I guess not. I hope you got my point. Kehi kura sabai ko milcha tara you can not categorize people just on the basis of your understanding on the matter without due consideration to their point of view.

Regarding not being particularly interested to talk to you nor was I reading the stuff you write attentively until recently, all i got to say is, the feeling was mutual. However I would not go as far to say your postings were insane, simply becasue, I believe, however one sided and redundant your postings were, I could ignore it on my pleasure and you are entitled to your views. That said, you have every now and then have presented a reasonable arguments without lacing it with your personal bias.

So my golden answer to you Nepe ji is, Yes, I have few creative opinions. Not doing the sheep walk to anyone who bark against Gyane as the new hope for one; without analyzing and understand what actually that so called leader had done when he had the power and responsibility in his jurisdiction or simply ignoring it. Another golden and most creative idea is opening my eyes and understanding that people have different views and I might not agree with most of them but I might as well respect their views, if I would want them to respect mine, without lynching them as this group or that group, but as a adult having their own reasons and understanding. Perhaps this view can be a masterstroke if applied by all and sundry.

And good luck with your quest for finding the solution with your new ray of light. I hope, in finding the solution, Nepal would not have to fight another grave problem, simultaneously.

Jai Nepal.
IndisGuise:)

To Indisguise
Thanks very much Indisguise ji for your calm and composed reply.Your comment is an ample proof of your commitments to democracy and rule of law. If there had been any ambiguity about this, they have been erased by your own statement now. Your expressions very much reflect my own judgement about Nepalese politics but you seem to be more frustrated by the politicians and at the same time more hopeful of the King than me.
I also wished the King did better than the politicians and taught them a good lesson. But his performance in these three months have (in my view) signalled a future of draconian dicatorship in Nepal. So I have been more critical of the King.
There are many sajhaites who are directly or indirectly related to politicians of the past and present. Most of them have seldom spoken against the King's move. If the King hands over power to the politicians they will be the first to line up seeking undeserved favour. I, just like you,can boast from my track record that I have never ever taken advantage of the political system in my life, never ever bribed even a rupee,never ever broken any rules regulations and never ever expect to take unfair advantage of the system.
But I am one of those who have been explicitly vocal against the King, Maoists and political leaders just hoping that I can convince fellow countrymen that we, the educated Nepalese,could now explore our role to help correcting the messed up politics of our country. When we can find a common ground about how to make a real change collectively, we can make it happen. Thats what I am stressing for.
It doesn't mean we should be leaders.I don't aspire to be a leader. My career, family background, everything doesn't help me even if I wanted to be a leader.
My reckoning is if we don't oppose the wrong doings, if we don't support what we stand for, we cannot make any contribution to the country. If we support freedom of speech, we should be bold enough to criticize Gyanendra. Yes, peace comes first to civil rights. But the King's tactics do not help for the cause of peace. Better alternatives are there without curtailing the fundamental rights.
Lengthy has gone this again.But let me emphasize one more time that I never questioned your rights about expressing your belief. I am just saying that, the Nepaliness in you requires you to be more positive in commitments and participation than being critical of every one. Many of us have almost similar feelings, why not we get together and discuss how we can collectively help for making politics a fair game in Nepal. Yes, we can't do every thing but can't we pressurize the politicians, King to correct themselves. 1) King Gyanendra will give up his autocratic ambition if we oppose him or if we stay quiet:What do you think? 2) Politicans (Gagan Thapa included) won't repeat their disgusting behaviours if we pressurize them not to do so or by keeping quiet: what do you think?
Again, I must apologise for the length of this reply and thanks for clarifying your position :)

I still don't get it ? What are we demostrating about again ? What is the purpose of this demostration ? Who are you rooting for ? People won't come out just becuase ...you have to have an objective. If we gather for no reason ..what is the point ...people will loose sight of the end of the tunnell(gotta show what is on the onther end).

SC registrar resigns


KOL Report

KATHMANDU, May 9 - Registrar of the Supreme Court Shree Prasad Pandit Monday resigned from the post raising questions over the attitude of the Chief Justice in connection with the purchase of a vehicle.

Pandit submitted his resignation to the Ministry of Law Justice and Parliamentary Affairs stating that Chief Justice Hari Prasad Sharma illegally intervened in his work thus creating an insecure environment to carry out his duty, our correspondent Bal Krishna Basnet reported.

Pandit also blamed Sharma of placing him on the reserve pool and search for new registrar who works as per his [Sharma's] wish.

Registrar Pandit, who was due to retire on May 28, was sent to the reserve pool of the General Administration due to "differences" with Chief Justice Sharma over purchase of vehicles. The rift between the two widened as the chief justice revoked an over twenty-million rupees vehicle tender already awarded by Pandit.

He has sought that his resignation be effective from May 14.

According to the resignation letter, Chief Justice Sharma awarded the vehicle tender to Sipradi Trading Pvt. Ltd. by revoking the tender that was already given to Bhudev Trading Ltd.

Pandit said that he had assigned the tender after consultations with the then Chief Justice Govinda Bahadur Shrestha and had obtained approval from the National Planning Commission and the Finance Ministry.

Meanwhile, Sharma refused to make comment over the issue. (dds)

सम्पादकीय
श्वेत आतङ्क बन्द गर
दिउँसै मुलुकको प्रमुख राजनीतिक दलको केन्द्रीय कार्यालयमा मुख छोपेका लडाकुहरू पस्छन्, एक सम्मानित मृत नेतृको शोक कार्यक्रममा व्यवधान उत्पन्न गर्छन् र चर्पीको ढोका फोरेर निहत्था नागरिकलाई अपहरण गर्ने शैलीमा लिएर जान्छन् । मध्यरातमा एकजना पर्ूवप्रधानमन्त्रीको निजी निवासको विद्युत लाइन काटिन्छ, टेलिफोन सर्म्पर्क चुँडालिन्छ र उनलाई गुरिल्ला शैलीमा नियन्त्रणमा लिइन्छ । घरडेरामा सुतिरहेका युवा, छात्र वा सामान्य नागरिकहरू सामान्य पोशाकमा रहेका 'सुरक्षाकर्मीहरू' बाट पक्राउ पर्छन् । धर्म र शिक्षाको सङ्गमस्थल मानिएको एउटा छात्रावासबाट एकाएक विद्यार्थीहरूलाई निष्काशित गरिन्छ ।

यी र यस्ता अनेकन् घटनाहरू कुनै काल्पनिक चलचित्रका दृश्यहरू नभएर अहिलेको राजधानीको र समग्रमा सिङ्गो मुलुककै वास्तविक परिदृश्य हो । यो सब देख्दासुन्दा जोसुकैको मनमा आउने स्वाभाविक प्रश्न हुन्छः होइन, यो के भइरहेछ - पर्ूव न्यायाधीश तथा वर्तमान बारका अध्यक्षलाई हवाईजहाजबाट ओराल्नु, अदालतले थुनामुक्त गरेको पर्ूवमन्त्रीलाई पुनः समात्नु तथा ब्याङ्कङि गोपनीयताका आधारभूत मान्यताहरूलाई लत्याउँदै सामान्य नागरिकलाई शङ्काको भरमा नङ्ग्याउनु- सभ्य समाजलाई सुहाउने काम कदापि होइनन् । एक्काइसौँ शताब्दीको जतिसुकै कुरा गरिए पनि सत्रौँ शताब्दीको व्यवहार प्रदर्शित गरेर आधुनिक राज्यलाई धेरै कालसम्म चलाउन सकिँदैन । मानवीय मूल्य, विश्वव्यापी मान्यता तथा राष्ट्रिय ऐनकानूनको सम्मान नगर्ने मुलुकले सुस्तरी आफ्नो वैधानिकता स्वतः गुमाउँदै जान्छ । लाग्दछ, माओवादीले भन्दा राज्यको बढी बिगार वर्तमान सत्ताधारीहरू स्वयंले गरिरहेका छन् ।

आतङ्कवाद सिर्जित अस्तव्यस्तता हटाउने कार्यलाई १९ माघको शाही कदमको मुख्य उद्देश्य बताइएको थियो । तर सरकार सञ्चालनको जिम्मा उठाएका व्यक्ति तथा निकायहरूले शाही घोषणाको मर्म र भावनालाई पटक्कै ठम्याउन नसकेको देखिन्छ । राज्य विरुद्ध हतियार उठाएकाहरू तथा शान्तिपर्ूण्ा राजनीतिक सङ्र्घष्ामा विश्वास गर्नेहरूबीच फरक देख्न नसक्नु, राज्य स्वयं व्रि्रोहीहरूको शैलीमा दमनमा उत्रिनु तथा विधिको शासनका न्यूनतम अवधारणाहरूसमेत अपहेलित हुनु कार्यान्वयनसँग सम्बन्धित अधिकारीहरूका सामान्य कमीकमजोरी मात्र होइनन्, राज्य असफल हुने क्रममा रहेको प्रारम्भिक सङ्केतहरू पनि हुन् । राज्यले गुरिल्ला शैलीमा शासन चलाउनुहुँदैन, चलाउन सक्दैन ।

वैधानिक सर्वोच्चतालाई तिलाञ्जली दिएर लहडको भरमा शासन गर्ने प्रवृत्तिले सत्ताधारीहरूमा व्याप्त रहेको असुरक्षा भावलाई उजागर गर्दछ । नियमकानून अनुसार सरकार सञ्चालन हुन छाडेपछि शक्तिशालीहरू समेत डराएर आक्रामक हुन थाल्दछन् । तत्कालका लागि यस प्रकारको आचरण र व्यवहारको शिकार सामान्य नागरिक मात्र भए पनि कालान्तरमा एकअर्काप्रति शङ्कालु बन्दै गएको शासक वर्गले सम्पर्ूण्ा राज्यसंरचनालाई भित्रैदेखि कमजोर बनाउँदै लगेर खोक्र्याइदिन्छ । त्यसपछि त्यो संरचना कुनबेला गर्ल्यामगर्ुर्लुम ढल्ने हो, अनुमानै गर्न सकिँदैन ।

विधिको शासन निर्धालाई मात्र होइन, बलियालाई पनि उत्तिकै चाहिने कुरा हो; किनभने शक्ति सदैव एकै ठाउँमा केन्द्रित भएर कहिल्यै रहँदैन । अहिले मुलुकमा चलिरहेको कार्यपालिकाका ज्यादतीहरू तुरुन्त बन्द हुनर्ुपर्दछ र जिम्मेवार तथा पारदर्शी प्रक्रिया बेगरका कामकारबाहीहरूलाई सच्याउने वातावरण बनाउन स्वतः निष्त्रिय हुने तीन महिनाको अवधि पूरा गर्न लागेको सङ्कटकाललाई अन्त्य हुन दिइनर्ुपर्दछ । नागरिकहरूको नैर्सर्गिक मानवाधिकार हनन्को मामिलामा व्रि्रोही तथा सरकार दुवैथरि अन्तर्रर्ााट्रय समुदायका अगाडि एउटै पंक्तिमा उभिनुपर्ने दर्ुभाग्यपर्ूण्ा अवस्थाको अन्त्यका लागि सरकारले अविलम्ब आफ्नो शासनशैली सच्याउनुपर्दछ ।

प्रतिनिधिसभादेखि संविधानसभासम्म
(सात दलबीच साझा सहमति)


- देश र जनता यतिबेला गम्भीर संकटबाट गुजि्रनु परिरहेको कुरा सबैलाई विदितै छ । मुलुकमा बहुदलीय प्रजातन्त्र स्थापना भएको ५ वर्ष नपुग्दै नेकपा -माओवादी) ले सुरु गरेको सशस्त्र द्वन्द्वले जन्माएको हिंसा र प्रतिहिंसाको क्रममा अहिलेसम्म १२ हजारभन्दा बढी नेपाली नागरिकहरूको ज्यान गइसकेको छ, सयौं मानिसहरू बेपत्ता भएका छन्, हजारौं मानिसहरू अपाङ्ग बनेका छन् र लाखौंको संख्यामा विस्थापित छन् । यो समस्याको राजनीतिक समाधान पहिल्याउनुपर्ने आवश्यकता विपरीत माघ १९, २०६१ मा राजाबाट बलात शाही घोषणामार्फत प्रत्यक्ष रूपमा सम्पूर्ण सत्ता आफ्नो हातमा लिने काम भयो । त्यसपछि मुलुकको स्थिति झन् द्वन्द्वग्रस्त र जटिल बन्दै गएको छ । देश राजनीतिक रूपमा झन बढी विभाजित हुँदै गएको छ । जनताका मौलिक हकहरू निलम्वित गरिएका छन्, राजनीतिक दलका नेता र कार्यकर्ताहरू, सञ्चारकर्मीहरू मानव अधिकारवादीहरू र प्रजातन्त्रको पक्षमा आवाज उठाउनेहरू बन्दी बनाइएका छन् । भ्रष्टाचार नियन्त्रण गर्ने नाममा असंवैधानिक तबरले शाही आयोग गठन गरी राजनीतिक नेता, कार्यकर्तासमेतको तेजोबध गरिने क्रम सुरु भएको छ । प्रेस स्वतन्त्रतामाथि अंकुश लगाइएको छ । नेपाली नागरिकहरू राज्यको अवाञ्छित दबाब र बन्देजबाट पीडित पारिएका छन् । यही कारणले गर्दा नेपालको अन्तर्राष्ट्रिय सम्बन्ध र प्रतिष्ठामा समेत गम्भीर क्ष्ाति पुग्न गएको छ । मुलुकमा लगाइएको संकटकाल हाल आएर हटाउन बाध्य भए पनि देशको समग्र स्थितिमा कुनै सुधार भएको छैन ।
१८ असोज २०५९ को असंवैधानिक र प्रतिगामी शाही घोषणाका विरुद्ध राजनीतिक दलहरू, पेसागत संघ-संस्थाहरू, नागरिक समाज र नेपाली जनता आ-आफ्ना ढंगले आन्दोलित रहँदै आएका थिए ।

माघ १९, २०६१ को शाही घोषणा राजाद्वारा निरंकुश रूपमा प्रत्यक्ष शासन चलाउन गरिएको घोर अप्रजातान्त्रिक, असंवैधानिक र प्रतिगामी कदम हो । यसका विरुद्ध सात राजनीतिक दल शान्तिपूर्ण, संयुक्त र सशक्त जनआन्दोलनको आवश्यकतामा सहमत भएका छौं । यसै पृष्ठभूमिमा हामी राजनीतिक दलहरू पूर्ण प्रजातन्त्र एवं दिगो शान्तिको स्थापना, मानव अधिकारको पूर्ण प्रत्याभूति गर्दै देशलाई अग्रगमनतर्फ डोर्?याउन निम्नबमोजिमको साझा सहमति र प्रतिबद्धताका आधारमा एकताबद्ध भएको घोषणा गर्दछौं ।

२०४६ सालको संयुक्त जनआन्दोलनले मुलुकमा ऐतिहासिक परिवर्तन ल्याएको थियो । त्यसले देशमा प्रजातान्त्रिक र राष्ट्रिय विकासको प्रक्रियालाई एउटा नयाँ उचाइमा उठाएको थियो । देशमा लोकतान्त्रिक अभ्यासलाई अघि बढाउने, कानुनी राज्यको अवधारणा र विकेन्द्रीकरणको प्रक्रियालाई विस्तार गर्दै लाने, साधनको बाँडफाँड गर्ने परिपाटीमा परिवर्तन ल्याउने, विकासका भौतिक पूर्वाधारहरू निर्माण गर्ने र शिक्ष्ाा, स्वास्थ्य, सञ्चार, बिजुली र खानेपानीको विकास र विस्तार गर्ने क्ष्ाेत्रमा उल्लेखनीय प्रगति भएका छन् । त्यति हुँदाहुँदै पनि महिला, जनजाति, दलित, मधेसी समुदाय, पिछडिएका क्ष्ाेत्र, गरिब र विपन्न वर्गलाई परिवर्तनको व्यापक अनुभूति दिलाउने गरी प्रजातन्त्रलाई अझ गहिरो, व्यापक, उन्नत र समावेशी बनाउने तथा सामाजिक आर्थिक रूपान्तरण गर्ने दिशामा कमी-कमजोरी रहन गए । यस अवधिमा संसद्द्वारा सुशासन र भ्रष्टाचार नियन्त्रणका दिशामा संस्थागत व्यवस्था गरियो । तर पनि भ्रष्टाचारका समस्या हाम्रो समाजमा विद्यमान रह्यो । हिंसात्मक द्वन्द्वको व्यवस्थापन गर्ने र प्रतिगमनको खतरालाई समयमै महसुस गरेर त्यसका विरुद्ध सजग र सतर्क हुनुपर्ने कुरामा पनि कमी-कमजोरी रहन गए ।

आ-आफ्ना कमी-कमजोरीप्रति आत्मालोचित हुने र तिनीहरूलाई फेरि दोहोरिन नदिने संकल्पन गरी २०४६ सालको आन्दोलन तथा प्रजातन्त्र पुनःस्थानापछिका वर्षहरूको उपलब्धिहरूको रक्षा गर्दै हामी प्रजातन्त्र र राष्ट्रिय विकासको प्रक्रियालाई अझ उन्नत बनाउन संयुक्त प्रयासलाई अघि बढाउने प्रतिबद्धता प्रकट गर्दछौं ।

१. अतिवाद होइन- प्रजातान्त्रिक मार्गको अवलम्बन

यतिबेला नेपाली जनता र राष्ट्र राजाको प्रत्यक्षा शासनबाट सुरु गरिएको दक्ष्ािणपन्थी अतिवाद र नेकपा -माओवादी) ले सञ्चालन गरिरहेको उग्रवामपन्थी अनिवादबाट आक्रान्त बनेका छन् । यी दुवै अतिवादबाट मुलुकलाई मुक्त गरी संवैधानिक र जनप्रतिनिधिमूलक शासन र प्रजातान्त्रिक मार्गतर्फ नलगुन्जेल देश र जनताका कुनै पनि समस्याहरू समाधान गर्न सकिन्न । प्रजातन्त्र र जनप्रतिनिधिमूलक शासन राष्ट्रिय राजनीतिमा कार्यरत सबै शक्तिबीचको राष्ट्रिय सहमतिको मूल आधार हो ।

२. राजाको निरंकुश शासनको अन्त्य- आजको आवश्यकता

राजाको प्रत्यक्ष शासनको संविधान र संसद्को सर्वोच्चता र जनअधिकारलाई लत्याएर देशलाई निरंकुशतातर्फ डोर्?याएको छ । एक्काइसौं शताब्दीको नेपालमा पनि निरंकुशताको पुरातन र बर्बर प्रयोग हुनुले नेपाल र नेपाली जनताको राष्ट्रिय प्रतिष्ठालाई विश्व जनमतका सामु गम्भीर रूपमा क्षति पुर्?याएको छ । त्यसैले मुलुकलाई संवैधानिक र प्रजातान्त्रिक राजनीतिक मार्गतर्फ उन्मुख गराउन सर्वप्रथम सम्पूर्ण राजनीतिक बन्दीहरूलाई रिहाइ, मौलिक हक र प्रेस स्वतन्त्रताको बहाली र सम्पूर्ण राजनीतिक दलहरूलाई निर्वाध रूपले क्रियाशील हुने उन्मुक्त वातावरणको निर्माण र निरंकुश शासनको अन्त्य गरी संविधानलाई क्रियाशील बनाउने र जनप्रतिनिधि शासनको बहाली गर्दै अग्रगामी दिशातर्फ अघि बढ्नुपर्छ ।

मुलुकको शासना अधिकार जनतामा रहनुपर्छ र जनप्रतिनिधि संस्था क्रियाशील नरहेको अवस्थामा नेपालको समग्र परिवर्तन र विकासमा ऐतिहासिक भूमिका पूरा गरेका र जनअनुमोदित राजनीतिक दलहरू नै जनताका प्रतिनिधि हुन् भन्ने वास्तविकतालाई स्वीकार गरिनुपर्छ । वर्तमान परिस्थितिमा जनताको शासन अधिकारको माग गर्ने राजनीतिक दलहरूको यो सहमति र प्रतिबद्धताको जनताको अधिकार र आकांक्षालाई प्रतिनिधित्व गर्छ ।

३. जनप्रतिनिधि शासनका लागि प्रतिनिधिसभाको पुनःस्थापना

देश जनप्रतिनिधिविहीन भएको मौका पारेर अहिले निरंकुशता थोपरिएको छ । राजाको प्रत्यक्ष्ा शासनले समग्र संवैधानिक व्यवस्था र जनअधिकार क्ष्ातविक्षत भएको छ । यसका साथै विद्यमान असुरक्षाको भयावह स्थितिमा जनप्रतिनिधिहरूको स्वतन्त्र, निष्पक्ष र भयमुक्त निर्वाचन हुनसक्ने अवस्था छैन । यस्तो स्थितिबाट मुलुकलाई मुक्त गरी संविधानलाई पूर्णरूपमा क्रियाशील गराउन, अवरुद्ध भएको प्रजातान्त्रिक एवं विकास प्रक्रियालाई गतिशील बनाउन, हिंसात्मक द्वन्द्वलाई व्यवस्थापन गर्दै स्थायी शान्ति स्थापित गर्न तथा मुलुकलाई राजनीतिक, आर्थिक, सामाजिक र सांस्कृतिक अग्रगमनतर्फ लैजाने जस्ता उद्देश्य प्राप्तिका लागि संसद्को उपस्थिति र क्रियाशीलता अपरिहार्य भएकाले विघटित प्रतिनिधिसभाको पुनःस्थापना अहिले देशको साझा माग र अनिवार्य आवश्यकता भएको छ भन्ने कुराप्रति हामी प्रतिबद्धता व्यक्त गर्दछौँ ।

४. राष्ट्रिय संकट समाधानका निम्ति केही प्रमुख कार्यसूची

मुलुकको विद्यमान संकट समाधान गर्ने दिशामा पुनःस्थापित संसद्ले राजनीतिक दल र नागरिक समाजको व्यापक शक्ति र समर्थन प्राप्त गर्दै निम्नबमोजिमका कार्यसम्पादन गर्नेछ-

-क) संसद्प्रति उत्तरदायी सरकार ः मुलुकमा विद्यमान सबैखाले द्वन्द्वको समाधान गर्न, राजनीतिक स्थायित्व र अग्रगामी परिवर्तनलाई अघि बढाउन पुनःस्थापित प्रतिनिधिसभाद्वारा संसद्प्रति उत्तरदायी व्यापक सहमतिको सर्वदलीय सरकारको गठन गरिनेछ ।

-ख) हिंसात्मक द्वन्द्वको व्यवस्थापन र दिगो शान्तिकेा स्थापनाः माओवादी सशस्त्र द्वन्द्वको व्यवस्थापन र दिगो शान्तिको स्थापना अहिलेको एउटा प्रमुख राष्ट्रिय आवश्यकता हो । अग्रगामी राजनीतिक निकासद्वारा जनतालाई पूर्ण रूपले सार्वभौमिकता सम्पन्न बनाउँदै हिंसात्मक द्वन्द्वको व्यवस्थापन र दिगो शान्तिको स्थापना संसद् र सर्वदलीय सरकारको मूल एजेन्डा हुनेछ । मुलुकका विभिन्न राजनीतिक, आर्थिक, सामाजिक र सांस्कृतिक प्रश्नहरूको समाधानका लागि प्रजातान्त्रिक निकासको साझा प्रस्ताव निर्माण गरी माओवादीलाई शान्तिपूर्ण प्रक्रियामा सरिक हुन आवश्यक वातावरण सिर्जना गरिनेछ । यस सन्दर्भमा मानव अधिकार आचारसंहिताको निर्माण गरी द्वन्द्वरत सबै पक्ष सहमत हुने र शान्ति प्रक्रियामा क्रियाशील सबै जिम्मेवार राजनीतिक दल र नागरिक समाजले सकारात्मक योगदान गर्न सक्ने वातावरण तयार गरिनेछ ।

-ग) अग्रगमनको कार्यक्रमसम्बन्धी प्रतिबद्धता ः प्रजातान्त्रिक प्रक्रियामा अघि बढ्दा वा द्वन्द्व व्यवस्थापन र दिगो शान्तिका लागि राजनीतिक समझदारी र प्रबन्धमा जाँदा जनतामा निहित सार्वभौमसत्ता, जनता नै राजकीय शक्तिको स्रोत रहने मान्यताको अक्षुणता, बहुदलीय संसदीय शासन प्रणाली, हिंसा एवं त्रासबाट मुक्त बहुदलीय प्रतिस्पर्धा, कानुको शासन तथा न्यायपालिकाको स्वतन्त्रता र निष्पक्षता कहिल्यै अपहरित नहुने गरी पूर्णतः सुनिश्चित गरिनेछन् । यसका साथै राष्ट्रिय महत्त्वका विषयमा जनमत संग्रहको प्रावधान, सेना जननिर्वाचित सरकारप्रति जवाफदेही हुने व्यवस्था, राज्यको पुनःसंरचना गरी यसलाई थप सहभागितामूलक, प्रतिनिधिमूलक र मुलुकका सामाजिक, सांस्कृतिक, भौगोलिक, जातीय र भाषिक विविधता प्रतिविम्बित हुने गरी सामवेशी बनाउने प्रबन्ध, स्थानीय स्वशासन र असल प्रशासनको सुनिश्चिता, पूर्ण रूपले पारदर्शी आर्थिक प्रशासनको स्थापना, भ्रष्टाचारको प्रभावकारी नियन्त्रण, महिला, दलित, पिछडिएका जनजाति, मधेसी समुदाय, पिछडिएको क्षेत्र र जनताका निमित न्यायपूर्ण आरक्ष्ाणको व्यवस्था, उपयुक्त आधार वर्ष तय गरी नागरिकता समस्याको समाधान, समानुपातिक विकासको अवधारणा, प्रगतिशील भूमिसुधार, व्यक्तित्व विकासमा समान अवसर, शिक्ष्ाा र स्वास्थ्य सेवाको सुलभ र समुचित बन्दोबस्त, राजनीतिक दलहरूको पारदर्शी, प्रजातान्त्रिक एवं उत्तरदायित्वपूर्ण सञ्चालनलगायतका विषयहरू पनि भावी संवैधानिक संरचनाका विषय बनाउने कुराप्रति हामी प्रतिबद्धता प्रकट गर्दछौँ ।
-घ) संविधानसम्बन्धी प्रश्नको निरुपण ः नेपाल अधिराज्यको संविधान २०४७ ले जनतालाई राज्य शक्तिको स्राेत मान्नुका साथै सार्वभौमसत्ता र राजकीयसत्ता जनतामा नै निहित रहेको तथा तिनको प्रयोग संविधानबमोजिम हुने व्यवस्था गरेको छ । २०४६ सालको आन्दोलनकेा यो मूल उपलब्धि कुनै पनि बहानामा नखोसिने गरी जनतालाई थप सबल तथा पूर्ण रूपले सार्वभौमसत्ता सम्पन्न बनाउन र देशलाई अग्रगमनतर्फ लैजान ठोस आधार तयार गर्ने प्रतिबद्धता प्रकट गर्दछौँ ।

मुलुकका सबै राजनीतिक शक्तिहरूलाई राष्ट्रिय राजनीतिको मूल धारमा ल्याउनका लागि अग्रमगनको साझा कार्यक्रमका आधार संविधानसम्बन्धी प्रश्नको निरुपण गरिनुपर्दछ । मुलुकमा विद्यमान सबै द्वन्द्वलाई समाधान गर्न संविधानसभालगायत सबै प्रजातान्त्रिक प्रक्रियालाई अवलम्बन गर्न तयार रहने प्रतिबद्धता व्यक्त गर्दछौँ ।

५. अग्रगमनको आधार नेपाल अधिराज्यको संविधान २०४७ ः नेपाल अधिराज्यको संविधान २०४७ लाई आधार मानी मुलुकको राजनीतिक संकटको निकास र अग्रगमनतर्फ अघि बढ्ने प्रतिबद्धता प्रकट गर्दछौं ।

६. राष्ट्रिय निर्वाचन कार्य आयोजना ः संवैधानिक प्रश्नको निरुपण गर्दै निश्चित अवधिभित्र राष्ट्रिय निर्वाचनको आयोजना गरिनेछ । यस्तो निर्वाचनलाई शान्तिपूर्ण, निष्पक्ष, भयमुक्त र सुव्यवस्थित गर्न अन्तर्राष्ट्रिय अनुगमन र सहयोगसमेत सुनिश्चित गर्न सकिनेछ । साझा सहमति र प्रतिबद्धताको यस प्रक्रियाबाट मुलुकको वर्तमान गम्भीर संकटको निकास निस्कन सक्छ भन्ने हाम्रो विश्वास छ । यो प्रक्रियाबाट मुलुकको संकट समाधान गरी पूर्ण प्रजातन्त्रको स्थापना गर्नु शान्तिपूर्ण जनआन्दोलनको लक्ष्य हो । यस्तो लक्ष्य लिएर संयुक्त जनआन्दोलनमा अघि बढेरमात्र निरंकुशतालाई अन्त्य गर्न सकिनेछ । यो लक्ष्य प्राप्त गर्न हामी निम्नलिखित दलहरू आन्दोलनको साझा कार्यक्रम र आचारसंहिता निर्माण गरी शान्तिपूर्ण आन्दोलनका निम्ति प्रतिबद्ध भएको घोषणा गर्दछौँ ।
