Consensus

Consensus

It has been difficult for the common people to understand as to why the consensus government is required now in Nepal. Pushpa K Dahal, Chairperson of CPN-MC has been putting all his effort in that direction and trying to convince both the UML and NC leaders to form a consensus government “Dahal meets prime minister, moots consensus govt” (THT, 5 July, Page 1). UML leaders have been publicly saying that forming such government would meet the need of the time and will have no problem for them to join it should all the major parties forge consensus on this issue. However, NC does not seem interested to join such government: it prefers changing the guard of the incumbent government or continuing its opposition role.

The importance of forming a national government may be the need of the hour considering the effective implementation of the new constitution. But, is it necessary to form such a government? And, is it possible for the big three to reach a consensus? All the political parties have their own political principles and agenda. How is it going to be possible for them to come on the same board just for the sake of implementing the new constitution? May be, who knows, some of them may not want to see the implementation of this constitution for their own political interest and benefits.

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...
