Be reasonable

Be reasonable

It is frequently read and heard that the NC President Sushul Koirala has been claiming that the next government should be led by Nepali Congress since both the UML and UCPN(M) have already run the government as reported in “Sushil for NC-led govt” (THT, Nov.8, Page 1). Now, the other NC leaders have joined him in claiming for this as reported in “Congress leaders claim for next unity government” (THT, Nov.8, Page 1). It does not seem wise to publicly claim for putting forward such dull reasons at such a time when he even has not been able to hold his party cohesively together. Time and again, he has created confusions and failed to democratically run his party.

All the signatories of the seven-point deal should sincerely be serious in effectively implementing it rather than starting wrongly interpreting the deal. Has this been difficult for NC to see that Dr. Babu Ram Bhattarai (BRB) led government gets all the credit for doing good jobs? If not, why does not Sushil think for NC to join the government and even ask UML to come on the board? Why does not he take a lead role in supporting BRB led government to become a unity government? For what reasons, it would be necessary for NC to lead the next government?

The current government led by BRB seems doing fairly reasonable jobs to complete the long awaited peace and new constitution drafting processes. Some important measures towards completing these processes have already been taking place. Time frame for completing the integration and rehabilitation of PLAs is out and now are in the hands of Special Committee. Packages for these provisions are almost complete.

UCPN (M) has been extremely reasonable to solve the existing problems related to peace process and shown sincere commitment by signing the seven point deal. The other parties should also equally reciprocate and sincerely and responsibly act towards the effective implementation of the deal.

Causes and consequences of self-immolation

Self-immolation—the act of setting oneself on fire—is one of the most extreme, painful, and lethal forms of self-harm and suicide. Globally, it represents a profound intersection of psychiatric distress, intense social strain, and political expression. Causes of Self-Immolation: The underlying motivations for self-immolation vary significantly across different regions, cultures, and socioeconomic demographics. ·      Political and Ideological Protest: In Western nations and certain East Asian histories, self-immolation is highly associated with political statement . Individuals use it as a highly visible, shocking public act to draw attention to perceived systemic injustices, war, or government policy. ·      Severe Psychiatric Illness: Globally, a vast majority of individuals who attempt self-immolation suffer from severe, often untreated mental health conditions. The most common diagnoses include major depressive disorder , schizophren...

Mid-term election and referendum simultaneously

  Mid-term election and referendum simultaneously The people are tired of politicians who make wonderful promises but have miserably failed to fulfill their rosy promises. As a result, they seem to be gradually losing their credibility by days. However, having said that, the level of political awareness among the majority number of the people is still low which has been the advantage for the politicians to lure them towards their irresponsible and dirty politics. In the recent past weeks, we saw thousands of innocent people out in the streets to cheer up the so-called senior leaders who have miserably failed to lead the nation. We can see now the senior leaders and their parties are busy in forming another coalition government following the Supreme Court’s decision to nullify the unification of NCP a few days ago thus splitting the CPN-UML and CPN-Maoist. It was, in fact, a huge legal blow to them. This situation has created another political chaos in the country which might in...

A Legend Falls: Remembering Mountaineering Icon Nirmal Purja

The mountaineering world has lost one of its brightest, most unstoppable lights. It is with a profoundly heavy heart that I wish to express my profound grief over the tragic passing of Nirmal “Nimsdai” Purja, who lost his life alongside his brave crew in a devastating avalanche on Broad Peak, Pakistan. To say Nimsdai was a legend is an understatement. He was a force of nature who redefined the absolute limits of human endurance and capability. From shattering world records by climbing all 14 of the world’s highest peaks in just six months, to leading the historic first winter ascent of K2, he showed the world that "nothing is impossible." More importantly, he brought long-overdue pride, global recognition, and respect to the Nepali climbing and Sherpa community. Nims now rests eternally among the giant peaks he loved and conquered so fiercely. His fearless spirit, boundless energy, and ultimate motto—"Giving up is not in the blood"—will live on forever in the h...
