Only blame game rife
All the major political parties of new Nepal have been widely exposed because of their inter and intra-party factional politics thus severely hampering the peace process and drafting of new constitution that are to be completed by the end of the extended three months time in accordance with five-point deal. Maoist senior leaders seem pretty busy in blaming and undermining each other in the name of people’s war as reported in “Baidya-Bhattarai camp busy flexing muscles” (THT, July 13, Page 1). Likewise, the Nepali Congress (NC) senior leaders’ bid to lead the next government is heating up as reported in “Congress statue allows PP leader change: Singh” (THT, July 13, Page 5). Also, the UML’s internal feud has heated up for quite some time.
Looking closely at their irresponsible and insensible acts, it does not seem that they would be able to complete the people’s mandated tasks by the dead-line. The current fragile political situation of Nepal
Furthermore, if they do not abandon their egoistic and self-centred politics, and rise above their petty politics, there is for sure, the ongoing political game may disastrously end inviting political, social and economic chaos in the nation. If that did happen, the country could plunge deeply into vicious circle making itself a vulnerable state that would be prone to disintegration. The deadline is approaching fast. Time has come for Big Three to sincerely and responsibly act and implement five-point deal without delay.
