Enough is enough.
People of Nepal have been terrorized long enough. The following proposal is put forth to attempt to solve the current situation. Maybe it will start some positive discussions.
To start with, the violence has to stop immediately. How do we achieve this? Well, in a country like Nepal, to bring forth peace we need to assign someone with an absolute power. I propose that we (Nepali People) nominate 15 people to take over the country for a period of five years. We can do this by amending our current constitution to add that provision in it for when a country is about to be destroyed we can activate this provision. There will also be an absolute provision within the constitution for a general election on May of 2007. There will be some weak-kneed people who would complain that this would be undemocratic. Hey, we can’t please everyone.
During this time, the rights of the people will shift back to the set of rights they had prior to when the current multi-party autocracy began 12 years ago. The army and the police will be grouped into “Bring Democracy to Nepal Armed Force” (the BDNAF). The BDNAF will fully be mobilized. The responsibility of the BDNAF will not only be to root out terrorism but also to root out all corruption. It will assist in the development of the country by helping to create dams, and power plants and other infrastructure as needed.
There will also be a “Bring Democracy to Nepal Constitutional Force” (the BDNCF) formed with 6 members from current political parties/judicial groups and another 9 members from youths between the ages of 20-40. The BDNCF will be charged to design a kind of democracy needed for the continuation of Nepal. It will be able to redefine Nepal zones and districts. It’s mandate will be within two years come of with a kind of system that can be fair and sustainable in Nepal.
This I think is a great place to start. People, everyone needs a breathing room in Nepal right now. We are killing each other and destroying such a beautiful country. And I think in the mind of most moderate Nepalis, this is unacceptable. Most people will be willing to give up “freedom” (do we really have freedom now?) for 5 years if we would have a place to call Nepal in the future.
