Need of Timely Election for Democracy in Nepal

Dr Surendra Bhakta Pradhanang
Nepal needs a timely election. Election is the primary process of developing democracy. People must have a free choice of representatives for parliament. The voting right of the Nepalese people in every term must not get rid of the national politics for a long time. The right of the people must be guaranteed in people´s democracy. The time limit for election set by the National Constitution must be obliged by all. At any rate national election ought to be held amidst full peace and security in the country for fresh people´s mandate. Political uncertainty, frustrating local businesses and investors, crimps economy. The tussle between own brothers is not good and the country´s political debate must not be unending.

Today Nepalese politics has gone down almost out of service .Everywhere and every time we need of systematic management and control, but politics in Nepal seems out of order and mainly political ethics has been broken down and disappeared .The political environment shows politics for politics which is very unnatural and dubious to the political crisis in Nepal. The political strength seems weak due to unending power sharing ratio between the seven party alliance led government and the Moists.The present national politics blocked under dispute and lack of uniformity in political thought, generated a bad impression to the general public. The present politics creating criticism holds up mountain of strike, unrest and depression in the country.

The responsible political leaders urge to be patriots and accountable to the nation´s law and regulations and above all, the constitution recently set by the common approval of all major parties and the government of Nepal.

The present political development in Nepal looked a change in words as a´ Federal Republic Nepal ´from the government of Nepal is under transition. The People´s democracy is unlikely going far off distance when the declared ConstituentAssembly Poll was failed and delayed. The people of Nepal are not getting the rightfor casting vote in time when the peace and security are worsened. The voters must be saved and protected from every possible violence and unsecured environment in the country. The present declaration of poll on April 10, 2008 is also doubtful when security and peace management are weakened in the country.

Not surprisingly, carrying the rotten and date expired people´s mandate can not produce the healthy people´s democracy nor healthy leadership in the national politics.Naturally,the rotten and infected diets in politics create much more political diseases and political pollution .

A clock ticks and changes take place in every period of time. In the same way, people´s choice and demand in politics and political leaders can not be static and fixed beyond the end of the limit. The government without national election is not good. It has been the chronic disease of Nepal and Nepalese.

The people´s democracy in terms of economic development and dissemination of wealth and welfare in the grass root level is a must. It is the desire –elasticity of demand of people -- in the present context of Nepalese political economy. That is why it is suggested that Nepal´s Village Tourism Development concept propounded to eliminate Nepalese economic pain in Nepal

The economy is in trouble and unlikely difficult to improve without some sensible government response and good governance. The highest and fieriest nation´s unemployment issues and underdevelopment worries are seen in the economy.

After the peace agreement between the government of Nepal and Maoists, the cold war has been ended up Now is the national unity era – a starter for national development or rehabilitation which is the common goal to the people and country as a whole.

The National Constitution once fixed and implicated by the common consent and approval of parliament ought not to be loosely altered at any cost. The National Constitution, if randomly changed, will be lost in its validity and applicability.

Still violence, insurgency , vandalism, corruption and irregularities have not been properly stopped in the nation at all .As a result, people are afraid of walking freely on the one hand and facing too much unemployment problem and shortage of regular supply of daily consumption goods and services on the other. Worse, the national economy could not have improved at all.

The federal system coming as a new trend in the Nepalese politics is worrisome. Possibly, it may create disintegration in the nation. Consequently, the Terai Nepal may be fractioned admist of Nepalese political crisis and cold war, if federal system on the base of ethnicity is mistakenly operated. Federalism may lead separation and open the door of colonization in the country. Hence, for a small, independent and non-colonized country like Nepal the federal model is not suited.

Historically speaking, the past mistake done by Yachhe Malla in the Nepalese politics must not be repeated again. The present scenario of Nepalese politics is in the danger of liquid form that can flow at any direction. The Madesi Group creating in the Nepalese politics is the threat to the national unity and politics and the interim Government of Nepal.

The arms management done under the strict management and control of UNO ought to be fully obliged under the passed code of conduct and regulations, which must not be violated by anyone else. Besides, the armed groups and agitating parties of eastern terai of Nepal have to urgently hold talk and compromise with the government for national unity and economic development.

At present each Nepali individual has the responsibility to become unity in national politics and development as a whole. This moment, the role of UNO is important. It urges to pay a special attention to establish peace and security in Nepal at the fullest extent. The political individuals and parties should voluntarily leave their selfishness and bad thoughts too.
