Prachandapath, Gyanendrapath Nepali Times The behaviour of the king’s soldiers and the YCL was identical. The same arrogance and rudeness and disregard for the hardships of ordinary people.
Polls or bust Nepal has been unitary for nearly two-and-half centuries and a smooth switchover to a federal structure will need some ingenuity. ..... There are regional, ethnic, linguistic and cultural aspirations. In their obsession with the past, none of the mainstream parties seem to be aware of the challenges ahead. ..... The eastern tarai was the scene of this winter’s madhes uprising and it is where a majority of janajati own very little land and most dalits are landless. ..... the most unequal country in Asia. ..... a third of all Nepalis somehow survive on less than a dollar a day ..... nobody in power seems to be terribly enthusiastic about going to the polls ...... improving rural access to health, education, and social protection. More investment in rural infrastructure ...... Rajiv Gandhi famously remarked that only 15 percent of government money intended for India's poor ever reached them. Most of it leaks out in bureaucratic incompetence or corruption
Fleeing the flood Eighty percent of the farms in Dhanusha and Mahottari have been washed off. Some farmers want to salvage this year’s monsoon season and replant rice, but there is a scarcity of seedlings. ....... Armed groups in the tarai continued to threaten government staff, and civil servants use that as the excuse not to do anything. ..... “Riverbeds are rising every year and in many places they have risen higher than the farms on either side,” says Dhanusa CDO Ram Sharan Chimoriya.
After the deluge “We have got only one kilo of chiura and four packets of noodles to eat,” says Sita Debi, a mother of four, sitting on a wooden bed with four goats underneath. ...“We treat the goats like family,” she adds, “they are our only source of income.

Mainly in the plains As far as Kathmandu is concerned, Nepal’s madhesis look like Indians, talk like Indians, behave like Indians, are pro-Indian. And some would even go so far as to say they are Indian. What they don’t know is that there is actually resentment in the tarai against the Indian government. The madhes’s relationship with India is complex and multi-layered. ..... across the border in India there may be general sympathy for the madhesi cause, but this has not translated into active support. ..... Madhesis feel that New Delhi has never supported them in their struggle for rights .....

From Delhi to Patna to border towns, politicians and bureaucrats were thrilled to see an erosion in the Maoist influence in the tarai when the movement began. ...... In Patna and Lucknow, awareness of the madhesi issue is limited. ...... the fractured nature of madhes politics doesn’t help. .....

Mayawati, a dalit woman, has ruled India’s most populous state, Uttar Pradesh, as chief minister three times, and now enjoys a secure majority.
A king who could do no wrong a good student “always affable, polite and attentive, deferential toward his parents, wore jeans like other students at Harvard at the time, and retained his remarkable modesty even after he returned to Nepal and became officially...both an emperor and a god, albeit of a benign and approachable sort ........ such as his view on the appropriate solution of the Kashmir problem.
