Come together
It has been high time that the major
parties engaged in the serious deliberation to forge consensus on major
constitutional issues. Otherwise the country will be in a precarious situation.
In the past couple of days, the senior leaders of some parties have traded
barbs against each other spoiling attempts at reaching consensus. This is the
time to build trust not animosity.
We have suffered a lot due to destructive
politics. If the parties do not realize the mistakes they have committed time
and again their relevance in politics will cease to exist. The general people
have now become more socially and politically sensitive than ever.
If the 19 party alliances continue thinking
of taking to the streets, it could be politically counterproductive as the
people have high expectation of getting a new constitution by January 22. The
democratic process of deciding the issue through voting cannot be ruled out if the
political parties fail to forge consensus.
