I think u r half informed... king has announced that he will alow election for prime minister post... but the prime minister will report again to the monarch... this is still not democracy.. I wld say it is democrazy!!!\n\nwell the people of nepal do not want the king to continue in his throne but rather leave that for a fresh president and thus become a proper democratic state...

If you watched movie Equilibrium you might guess. Your country has become shadow of democracy ruled by certain designated circles which use and not used to real democracy.

Corrupt politicians in India still weld power over everything. every single politician should be heavily whipped on their asses till they bleed. then they'll know how much our forefathers bled to gain independence. and today, our youths are shedding the same to gain another independence from these money minded suckers. its high time, young students join in politics like in Yuva, RDB.. its only a matter of time soon.

u raised a question worth million bucks.actually i think no body is  interesed in this stuff{talking in context of our politicians}.reserving 50%of the seats for sc/st/obc...shows the poor mentality of the old political system...may be its in the roots and the only answer to it is ...ACCEPT IT!! u can do nothing.

To create the illusion of human rights and representative government. Look at Saddam Hussein; he had "free elections" when he was in power. He could rightly claim "99 percent of the people voted for me! Ok, so we shot the 1 percent that didn't, but it still counts as an election!"

It is sad to state that with over 2,500 US KIA & MIA since the beginning on March 20th 2003, it turns to be an average of more than 2 servicemen a day. 2 more each passing day...\n\nNews like news and as soon as something turns into a "daily matter" they bury the subject. \n\n2 servicemen names would have had to be honored in sharing a same daily headline since 3/20/03... If any newspaper had launched such a frontpage I can't imagine what politicians would have done...

Good question.\n\nThe timing certainly seems to fit what we have become accustomed to, politically calculated.\n\nAs has been said above, I doubt that it will make any difference on its own. I am surprised that there has not (yet) been a major event, and I hope it stays that way. That would be so obvious that it might launch civil strife elsewhere than in Iraq and Afghanistan.

They are fully justified.There is a limit to votebank politics.Just to appease their OBC votebanks the Govt is trying to deprive the General Category students of their seats.There is a limit to reservation.It is not that there is no reservation,reservation already exists but now they want to get it upto 50% and that is real pathetic and if the students are protesting which is their right in a democracy I see nothing wrong with that.

Listen .. here's a fact for u : \nINDIA HAS NEVER ATTACKED OR TRIED TO TAKEOVER ANOTHER COUNTRY IN IT"S ENTIRE HISTORY and would never do so..pls rewind thro the history textbooks. \n\nShe has only defended herself from attacks. \n\nThe view that the Ministry for External Affairs is not entirely in support of the monarchy. It's a fact.\n\nBut that doesnot mean that India would want to takeover Nepal. It respects and acknowledges the state of Nepal. \n\nBut the present tensions REQUIRE INDIA TO ACT DIPLOMATICALLY. And , by diplomatically i mean , talks or something like that, and NOT an invasion.\n\nWhy India HAS TO ACT , is because , Nepal is India's close neighbor . And if the neighbors have such a bloody bad problem , India cant just sit and ignore it, pretending as if there is no problem at all.\n\nWell.. the Indian MEA (ministry of external.. ) is already in a fix esp. after the Iranian vote issue. And so , the next time they take a decision, they are going to ponder over it a hundred times. And , India invading Nepal is simply out of question.\n\nSo. Dont worry.\n\n\nIncase the army is let loose in Nepal , the CPi and BJP will eat Congress' head off.. So, even the political equations DONOT favor an invasion of Nepal!!

There have been three national elections.  A duly elected Parliment has been seated.  A constitution has been drafted and continues to be worked on.  These are not the actions of an oppressed people...these are the actions of a people who are on the path to self-government.

During wartime many democratic rights are suspended.  That's part of the reason we are in a "war" today.  To give the people with power, more power.

If government agencies such as the NSA are allowed to overhear or read private phone conversations or e-mails or otherwise scrutinize private communications of people who live in this country — whether citizens or non-citizens — *without* the scrutiny and oversight of judges, who are in the last instance answerable to the law and to the public, they are creating a domain within the state that is exempt from the sovereignty of the people. This undermines democracy (however fake of a democracy it is anyway) and creates a state within the statue — usually thought to be a distinguishing feature of dictatorships, in which secret services, torturers, etc. are also neither answerable to the law nor to the people.

the government is upholding the quota matter because the Congress party(UPA) has no other worst method to capture the slipping vote bank from its hand. as the other national parties like BSP, SP, RJD, LOK JANSHAKTI, and the other regional parties are gradually capturing the vote banks, created in the name of reservation to the marginalised section.the resservation which has make them really dependable on the quota.so new reservatiopn is required for them for a new vote bank.it is a new version policy devide and rule which will creat brain drain.

nobody really knows. but i hope in the near future. as far as i know, its presently ruled by a military junta and they are already planning to hold elections to finally construct a democratic government. But up until now, there hasn't been an election. There was one election where Nobel Peace prize winner Aung San Suu Kyi and her democratic party overwhelmingly won. but the junta just arrested her and cancelled the elections for a later date. We can only wait when the junta will finally give in to the demands of the world and its people.

well, as of now, there are lots of activities that are going on, both overt and covert. \n\non the surface, you have a king holding on to power by a slim thread, a thread called the Royal Nepalese Army. a thread that can break anytime because after all the soldiers too are humans and the way things are, a potential revolutionary situation is in the making....sdnt wonder if there are already cracks in the army. \n\nalso we have the maoists who control nearly two-thirds of the country and only stopping short of storming the capital and taking power because of the big neighbour by the side, India, which has got its own maoist insurgency and India will not be too happy to see a communist country come up so close to borders. so that is a consideration. \n\nthe political (democratic) party, i think have lost the people more or less, so the people dont have any place to go except the maoists or the royalists....\n\nwhether the maoists are good or bad (to put very simplistically)is irrelevant, what is relevant is that the king is on his last legs (the fact that people are coming out against him openly in a place where kings were once revered as incarnation of God, is proof enough of his complete loss of authority) and may come crashing down soon....as to what will happen after that, depends on the tussle of will between maoists, the neutral people inside nepal and India and  China to an extent.\n\nvery interesting days ahead i am sure!!!
