There should be a parliamentary constituency for every 100,000 people, and there should be a wada for every 1,000 people, so you end up with 100 wada chiefs in each constituency. I think we have to thus firmly establish the one person, one vote principle. We have to stick to it through its vertical implications. If you don't do this you shortchange the Terai. And, more importantly, you shortchange democracy.
The basic organizational principle would be the same. It would be the vertical implications of one person, one vote. And the country would have a left of center party, and a right of center party. The communists seem more likely to do it. And if they manage to do it, and the other parties stay separate, you are looking at that communist party winning 60% of the votes in the country, at least. As long as the communists stay nonviolent, and as long as they stick to the multi-party framework, as no doubt they will, all the glory to them.
This is less like party unification, and more like saying let's dissolve all parties, and let's form a new one from scratch. The party gets established at a national convention. Everybody starts by signing up as an ordinary member. And then you hold elections at all levels to fill up all the posts.
I wonder who would emerge the Chairperson of such a unified communist party. It is obviously between Madhav Nepal and Prachanda. It will be nice to know who has a larger mass base.
These communists should not make the mistake of unifying the parties through unification talks alone. Unification talks are but a starting point. But the actual unification has to take place through a convention.
It amazes me how lethargic Girija has been on this whole issue. But then that is the beauty of democracy. If the Congress does not take similar unification steps, it will pay dearly at the polls.
The implications of there being one communist party are mind boggling. I have talked about its continental implications before. What Prachanda could never have achieved through the gun he is about to achieve through peaceful means beyond his wildest dreams. This is both exciting and interesting.

Dictatorship of Eight Parties?

A videotape of the incidents in Nepalganj on 26 December in the possession of Jana Aastha shows police involved in the violence. They are seen destroying shops and throwing furniture onto fires. In the clash between pahadis and madhesis, the Nepal Police is seen siding with pahadis and firing at madhesis. People in green jackets are visible, provoking the crowd, and mandaleys who work with Kamal Thapa and Rabindranath Sharma are also amongst those involved in the violence. The audio track of videotape contains sections of the crowd saying “Nepal Police jindabad.”
The police recorded are in half uniform and their faces are covered. One heard the words: “This shop is a Nepali’s, don’t destroy it.” The groups systematically attacked shops and homes, and SSP Rajendra Singh Bhandari insulted madhesi protestors, telling them to “go to India to protest”.
