Constitution is mirror of the nation which reflect the governance system,federal structure,economic right,human right ,right to education ,right to have health facility.Now question has raised that how this new constitution will address the problem of poor people who can not manage food for their family for whole year,education for children and access of health facility when the family members become serious ill. Are we ready to keep these education right,right of having livelihood and right of health facility as fundamental right like human right,press freedom,political right in new constitution ?How will be the new constitution and what are the basic features of our new constitution ?These are the major issues which should be addressed while making new constitution for new Nepal.We have to be cautious on the matter that constitution writing process is not so light as we think .It is not only political one ,moreover it is one of the academic and technical process as well after the verdict of election of constitutional assembly.While we start to write new constitution then it is more academic and technical matter on the basis of political framework that given by the presence of political forces in assembly.

Child Abuse In Nepal

When an eight-year-old girl in my neighbourhood cried her heart out to decline to go to school bus, her very busy working parents attributed it to a craving for attention as well as a long, enjoyable bike ride to school. That was till her mother Sujata, found nail marks on her daughter’s soft body while changing her cloth one day. (more…)

It is vital that these bills be reviewed by victims, civil society, and the Constituent Assembly to ensure that they bring justice and are consistent with international standards. Adopting these bills by decree will mean little public debate or scrutiny and will disempower survivors and victims. (more…)

What is it Mean by “Rule of Law” to Nepal?

Nepal has failed historically in complying with the “Rule of Law” in government practices and made itself world renown for its ongoing tradition of impunity all time in all three branches of government. The question is “why Nepal has to be doomed with such traditions that perpetuate party favoritism, ethnic tribalism, religious superior-ism, familial nepotism, gang criminal-ism, and so on that overrule justice?” (more…)

Flip-flopping Law Enforcement Tradition of Nepal

On several occasions international community has called ‘Flip-flopping Law Enforcement Tradition of Nepal’ the culture of impunity. What elements of society encourage the culture of impunity is the question perhaps nation’s ruling elites, responsible judiciary personalities and political leaderships are primarily ignoring it. It seems as if the culture is so deeply embedded in our daily socio-political and economic life that practice of impunity has become our one of the important survival tools. However, nation has failed to realize in every level that the democracy will not fly far with the culture of impunity. It will soon fall apart as it had been before and as it is now with the staggering socio-political and economic conflicts, which are the results of injustice basically caused by the practice of impunity.

Dalai Lama & Tibetans’ Stake in China

Is Tibet geographically part of South Asia? If not then when socio-political and economic crises occur in Tibet troubles should not pour down on to the nations of the South Asia. Nevertheless, historically that is not true since 500 BCE after Siddhartha Gautama established his philosophy of Buddhism. In my view Buddhism is not the religion of faith or belief or superstition. On the contrary, it is a philosophy of religion, which can initiate a revolutionary process in an individual for his or her perceptional independence over the collective consciousness that he or she has been succumbed to as a member of certain tribe, race, group or nation.

Ruin not CA Elections with the Media Hyperbolism

Hyperbolism in teens’ world does not only imply exaggeration or overstatement of one’s idea about what things should be but also emotional over-expectation about what one should become. This is because teens like tall talks. For them to get engaged in serious empirical observation they have to grow up with emotional balance of their interior chemistries. Is this the stage of the most of the mainstream political and media leaderships of Nepal, who are departing from such hyperbolic developments? I would say yes unless news media have reported otherwise - just for their profit. (more…)

Nepal: Let the Nation Move Forward with the Unity of Majority

Neither it is enthusiastic nor euphemistic for people to have hope in constituent assembly elections if election campaign starts with out-dated and unnecessary tactics, political propaganda, dirty politics, lack of law and order, and practice of impunity that encourages violence. Failing to campaign CA elections with the objective to accomplish the mandate of people to create a new democratic Nepal will be disenfranchising people from the democratic process. Whatever is the political ideology of the contestant political parties or of the participant electorates in the CA elections should not be the matter at all. Even the landslide victory of a single political party cannot overrule the mandate of people for democracy. (more…)

Any feudal system in the Government is not acceptable: Upendra Yadav

The eight-point agreement between SPA government of Nepal and United Madhesi Democratic Front (UMDF) is historic because it has sensibly ascertained the constitutional provision for the federal democratic republic establishment through the electoral mandate of CA elections. Moreover, the agreement has guaranteed the federal republican state on the basis of regional and historical background of ethnicity and linguistics with the right to self-determination. It is needless to make therefore assertion or dissertation about the institution of feudal monarchy at this point in time in the contemporary politics of Nepal. But it is absolutely necessary to abolish its entire feudal system in the workings of government for the sake of proportional socio-political and economic developments of all people of all communities of Nepal.

Where does Fight for Political Process of Ethnic Identities gone?

Ethnicity of humanity has genetic, environmental, cultural and linguistic existence in the evolution of human developments. Unlike religious and political propaganda that misrepresent humanity ethnicity has its existential values in relation with the human existence. That is to say, that with the ethnicity humanity has developed to this point in evolution. Since the Middle Ages the politics and religion have tried to homogenize diverse ethnicities and attempted to wipe out their identities from the socio-political and economic developments. This is exactly what happened in two hundred and fifty years’ Hindu feudal oligarchic regime. (more…)
