Nepal: National Destiny in Disjunction
“Nepal: National Destiny in Disjunction” Nepal’s destiny, “Khusi Nepali and Sambriddha Nepal” (Happy Nepali and Prosperous Nepal), was coined on 12 February 2018 during the Fireside Chat conducted by Kantipur TV. The refrain took a national itinerary when then Prime Minister KP Oli revealed it on March the same year from Rara, Mugu District. It pertains to national stability and national credibility. This is in momentous inconveniences that stride with unaccountable political governance. This points out to four issues: the aspirational contradiction of the Nepal Communist Party Maoists Centre (NCPMC), the 12-point agreement sponsored by New Delhi, people’s participation in the change of the political system, and lastly, extensive politicization with institutionalization of corruption. The risk to national security through non-traditional means is ongoing from identity politics raised by ethnic and regional groups, non-compliance with law and order leading to an increase in violence, rise in crime, extremism, hub of narcotics, human trafficking, and above all, criminalization of politics, institutionalization of corruption, and politicization of government machinery. Three issues are on the streets of Kathmandu, all related to the constitutional provisions: the political system with federation, national identity, and inefficient and corrupt government machinery. Two, political consensus to put an end to anarchical ways of governance with an amendment in the constitution with ‘legal maxim’ or ‘extra-legal actions’ advanced by more medieval jurist Henry de Bracton and recent legal authorities, including Sir William Blackstone. Nepalese people must be impressed upon with the reality that they have a shared stake in democracy, development, and peace with Nepalese identity first with stern, unyielding political decisions in addition measures in search of a strategic end.
