Nepal will turn into a Yugoslavia, Sikkim: Narayan Man

By Bhola B Rana

Kathmandu, 29 Feb: Small communist constituents in ruling seven-party alliance have expressed differences over the Thursday agreement between the government and the Maesh front, Naya Patrika reports.
They have concluded the agreement will give incentive incentives to elements working for the disintegration of the state.
Janamorcha, Nepal Majdoor Kishan Party (NMKP) and United Left Front (ILF) have expressed differences.
ULF Chairman C P Mainali said,” This is not an institutional decision of the seven parties. The decision has hijacked the rights of the people.”
He said the agreement could start a new conflict and called for correction.
“The agreement has raised the question of national sovereignty,” Amik Serchan of Janamorcha said.
NMKP Chairman Narayanman Bijukakchaya said the agreement was controversial and said,” The independence of the election commission has been been challenged with the issuance of an ordinance by the governemnt after election dates were announced.”
Government issued an ordinance Thursday relaxing a provision in an electoral to allow parties that poll less than 30 percent vote in direct elections to field candidates outside marginalised groups.
‘The agreement is a surrender to foreigners.”
He said opening for groups in the Nepal Army (NA)will give opportunity for India-trained people to penetrate NA.
“Nepal will turn into a Yugoslavia or Sikkim,” he said.
Narayan Kazi Shrestha, general secretary of Unity Centyer, said Congress, CPN-UML and Maoists took the decision unilaterally.
“The decision without the meeting of seven parties is unconstitutional.
Nnnn
“Congress is seeking some form of monarchy even though the prime minister has told parliament the country has already adopted a republic.
Even a minister very close to the prime minister is advocating monarchy.”
Dhungana said seven parties don’t represent public opinion.
“Seven parties and government have taken arbitrary decisions without serious consideration.
Decisions before this have no meaning. Only the sovereign people should decide issues that should be taken up by the constituent assembly or the needs of the nation.
‘A constitution should be promulgated that’s acceptable to all. It will assume a permanent status after going to the constituent assembly.”
