IT WAS NOT LONG BEFORE I STARTED BELIEVING IN MAOIST OF NEPAL. I KNOW, AFTER I WRITE THIS PIECE OF THREAD IN SAJHA, I WOULD GET NUMOROUS COMMENTS, SOME MAY CALL ME INSANE OR EVEN TERRORIST. BUT U KNOW GUYS, I DONT GIVE A FU*CK ABOUT THAT. BECAUSE ALL U ARE FROM ELITE CLASS MOST OF WHOM ARE FROM KATHMANDU. ITS NOT JUST BAHUNS AND CHHETRIS, BUT ALSO THOSE JANAJATIS WHO LIVES IN CITY AREA TO REPRESENT PEOPLE OF THEIR CASTE TO GET MONETARY BENEFITS FROM AID SUPPOSEDLY TO THE PEOPLE IN RURAL AREA, SON AND DAUGHTER OF WHOM SHOUT IN SAJHA SAYING "bahun chor".
IT WAS 4 YEARS AGO WHEN I WAS IN GRADE 11, ONE WOMAN FROM " SUKUMBASI TOL" DIED OF ARMY BULLET. IT WAS NOT CROSS FIRE. ARMY FIRED FROM BARRACK AFTER GROUP OF ARMY IN PATROL SHOOT A TRUCK PARKED IN ROADSIDE AFTER HEARING VOICES FROM " KHALASI" SLEEPING THERE. THE WOMAN WHO DIED WAS DECLARED TERRORIST BY THE DAO, AND ALSO IN NTV. NOBODY RESPONSIBLE EVEN DARED TO ASK APOLIOGY LET ALONE GIVING "CHYATIPURTI".
I HAD VISITED MY " PAHAAD GHAR" IN LAMJUNG DISTRICT. THE VILLAGE WHERE MY GRANDFATHER WAS BORN WAS JUST 1/2 HOUR WALK FROM THE PAVED HIGHWAY. I COULD NOT BELIEVE THAT THE ENGLISH TEACHER WAS UNABLE TO GIVE THE MEANING OF "DEW" IN NEPALI. HE WAS ALSO UNAWARE THAT HE COULD LOOK UP THE WORD IN DICTIONARY PROVIDED BY THE LOCAL POLITICAL LEADER TO THE SCHOOL LIBRARY.
CAN ANYBODY TELL ME HOW THESE GUYS GOING TO COMPETE WITH US? THOSE BAHUNS AND CHHETRIS, WITH MANY GURUNGS AND DALITS, WITH US, ME N YOU AND ALSO WITH THOSE JANAJATIS SHOUTING IN SAJHA.
DONT U THINK ITS ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE FOR THEM TO GET OUR LIFE STYLE WITH THAT KIND OF EDUCATION THEY GET, WITHOUT ELECTRICITY AND OTHER HOME-RESPONSIBILITIES. WHAT THEY FEEL ABOUT THAT? WHEN DO U THINK PEOPLE LIKE GIRIJA AND GYAN TAKE THIS ISSUE RESPONSIBLY. GYAN GOES AND LISTEN TO THOSE PEOPLE, JUST TO SHOW GIRIJA AND FOLKS. GIRIJA NEVER GOES THERE.
NOW THESE ARE THE PEOPLE WHO ARE IN FRONT LINE OF FIGHTING IN MAOIST. THEY WERE EASY TO CONVICE BY MAOIST. AND AFTER ALL THIS INSUGENCY, ITS GREAT THAT THEY KNOW ABOUT THEIR RIGHTS. IT WAS NOT POSSIBLE DURING THOSE 13 YEARS OF MULTIPARTY DEMOCRACY, AND WAS IMPOSSIBLE DURING 36- SOMETHING YEARS OF PANCHES.
OF COURSE MAOIST HAVE BROUGHT VOILENCE IN THE COUNTRY. I AM NOT LIEYING, BUT EVEN MY FATHER'S COUSIN WAS KILLED BY MAOIST. HE USED TO LOVE ME DEARLY, BUT I WISH HE HAD SHOWN THE SAME AFFECTION TOWARDS PEOPLE OF HIS VILLAGE.
MY 'PAHAD GHAR' IN LAMJUNG IS NOT ONLY SUCH VILLAGE IN NEPAL, THERE ARE MORE REMOTE PLACES IN NEPAL WHERE WE HAVE TO WALK FOR 1-2 DAYS TO REACH FROM NEAREST TRANSPORT CENTER, AIRPORT N ALL. AND I AM DAMN SURE THEY WONT BE AFFECTED BY NEPAL BANDH, SINCE THERE ARE NO SHOPS TO BE OPENED AND NO TYAMPOOS AND BUSES TO BE RUN. ALL THEY FEAR IS HELICOPTERS OF ARMY WHO SOMETIME EVEN FIRE IN FUNERAL TAKING WILD GUESS THAT IT IS MAOIST'S PARADE. THEY NEVER FIRE IN KATHMANDU AND MAJOR CITIES COZ PEOPLE LIVING IN CITIES CAN NOT BE ORDINARY MAOIST.
I THINK BEFORE WE THINK OF ANYTHING, WE SHOULD THINK ABOUT THOSE PEOPLE, PEOPLE IN ROLPA AND JUMLA, WHERE THERE IS EVEN SHORTAGE OF RICE EVERY YEAR, EVEN BEFORE MAOIST INSURGENCY.
MAOIST DEMAND OF CONSTITUENT ASSEMBLY WAS DENIED BY ELITES, FIRST THE POLITICAL PARTIES AND KING AND NOW ONLY BY KING. THEY ARE SAYING THEY ARE READY TO DISARM IN THE SUPERVISION OF UNO, NOT INDIA AND USA, SO THAT ROYAL ARMY DO THE SAME AND THERE WILL BE NO IRRREGULARITIES IN ELECTION.
THEN POLITICAL PARTIES AND NOW THE KING DONT WANNA DO THAT BECAUSE THEY ARE SURE THEY WILL LOSE BECAUSE MOST OF THE NEPALESE ARE LIKE MY DISTANT COUSIN FROM LAMJUNG, NOT THE PEOPLE LIKE ME AND YOU.
MAOIST DEMAND OF CONSTITUENT ASSEMBLY IS FAIR. NOW WHEN EVEN PARTIES ARE READY TO DO THAT, KING DONT WANT TO DO IT. THEY HAVE TOLD THEY WILL DISARM IF UNO SUPERVISE THE ELECTION AND EVERYBODY AGREES TO ABIDE BY THE RESULT OF THAT FORUM. WHAT IN THE WORLD HAVE MADE GYAN AND OTHER ELITES NOT LISTEN TO THIS FAIR DEMAND. EVERYBODY WITH WISE MIND KNOWS THAT.
IF U HAVE COMMENTS, POST THEM. NOT IN THE BULLSHIT LANGAUGE YOUR "SOCIETY"
HAVE TAUGHT YOU.
