- The new constitution of Nepal and Indo- Nepal r...
The new constitution bill was passed by 2/3 majority of constituent assembly of Nepal on 20th Sept. Now Nepal is a secular state and the new system is democratic republic federal state. There are seven states. China ,USA., UK ,Pakistan and many regional and other countries have welcome and congratulate the successful efforts of ruling parties and peoples of Nepal. Nepal has a deep relation with India in socio-eco sectors. There must not be any efforts from any stakeholders to build pressure to creating bitterness. The unsatisfaction must not be affected by the political propoganda for election of Bihar- India or the pressure politics of Nepalese Madhesi leaders on sharing state powers as cabinet Ministers and chief of various public sectors. The eight states can adjust the present Tharuhut state demand. The two more districts Morang and Sunsari should be given tp Madhesi state including Saptari to Parsa can be addressed easily the Madhesi` demands. Some of the NC top leaders should be friendly with Madhesi party`s leaders on this issue. Such as those areas from Navalparasi, Kapilbastu, Banke, Bardiya and Kailai districts can be made Tharuhut state. Some of the NC and UML leaders should be friendly with Tharus` leaders to give those districts including Kailai district for Tharuhut state. There is a peculiar system recognized in the new constitution which is absolutely undemocratic - as "No proposal for vote of confidence can be filed till 2 yrs in against of new Prime Minister. The fast track system was applied to pass the new constitution bill which became the cause of a long violent protest rallies. About hundreds of people were injured and more than 50 police officials and civilians were already lost their lives within a month. This is 7th constitution of Nepal and the constitution made by people`s elected leaders in the first time. The closed neighbor India wanted the new constitution after the solve of Madhesi`s demands it theeir efforts to halt the procedure till the kast hour but it wwas not accepted, so India did not welcome or congratulate the efforts of constituent assembly. This type of bureaucrats` behavior has brought a deep bitterness to the urban people once again for a small issue. Now some of leaders became national hero as saying that they were never as a yes man and will never be. The1/3 Madhes is only not Nepal and each and every one must know that our Indo- Nepal language, religion and social relations with India is very very old and no political leaders or parties can ever damage it. The academicians, neighbors and international community should play the pivotal role to make sweet Indo-Nepal relation which is most important and need at present.
