Showdown Begins
By KTM Metro Reporter in Kathmandu
The showdown has already begun. On November 2, 2009, Maoist cadres have staged sit-ins at the entrance to the offices of the municipalities and of the offices of the Village Development Committees and interrupted the regular work.
At the same time, Prachanda and Girija Prasad Koirala have had talks in Kathmandu to sort out the problems of not reaching the consensus politics. Chairman of CPN-UML Jhalanath Khanal and Chairman of Madheshi Peoples’ Rights Forum Upendra Yadav flew to New Delhi at the invitation of the Indian leaders according to the state-run Radio Nepal.
On November 2, 2009, as usual Prime Minister Madhav Nepal has trumpeted that the Maoists should follow the usual parliamentary procedures to take the power rather than trying to capture state power through the street movement. However, any person with even a slightest idea of principles and values of democracy has been questioning the legitimacy of his government, as he has come to power after the President on the advice of the leaders of the 18 political parties rather than following the Interim Constitution of Nepal paved the way for him to reach his final destination of Prime Minister.
Some Maoists have been saying that they are not for buying the legislators as has done by the unethical Madhav Nepal. They also know that even if they buy some legislators and form a new government, the unethical legislators of the Nepali Congress (NC) and Communist Party of Nepal-Unified Marxist and Leninist (CPN-UML) would not function it. So, they have no other alternative to taking the issue of the action taken by the ceremonial President turned to the puppet of the leaders of the 18 political parties to the streets and force the President to accept his mistake and restore the constitutional order rupture by his unconstitutional action.
