Shutting Down Nepal Means Criminals Ruling The Country
By KTM Metro Reporter
May 22, 2011: the so-called ethnic group called Chhetri Samaj has called two-day (Sun and Mon) shutdown in Nepal. Shutting down means shutting down the business of the entire population. These guys have not rights to restrict the rights of others. So, they are criminals acting on whims and ruling the country for the period of shutting down.
One government after another including the current government has been unable to stop the criminals ruling the streets and certainly the country. These impotent governments could not protect the rights of the common folks enshrined in the Constitution of Nepal of 2007. The governments have been unable not only to protect the rights to do regular business of the people but even the lives and the property of the common folks. The governments have never stopped the criminals from damaging the vehicles on the streets and the businesspersons’ stores and other properties during the shutdowns.
Normal practice of any government is to protect the lives and properties of the people and to punish the criminals damaging the lives and property and force them to pay for the damages done to lives and properties. But the government has not been able to do so. So, such a government has no rights to stay on power and draw the salaries from the taxpayers’ money.
Either the government should bring the criminals to justice or quit the office. If the government continues to allow the criminals to call shutdowns and let the criminal rule the country then Nepalis in general need to rise against such an impotent government and against the criminals. If the government cannot punish the criminals the people in general would take the law and order in their hands and finished off such criminals including the government that let the criminals rule the country.
The Nepalese media have not been playing a positive role in stopping the criminal acts of shutting down the business of other people rather they invite the so-called leaders of the street rulers to the private Nepalese TV and ask them to speak out in defense of their criminal acts. The Nepalese media need to vehemently oppose such criminal acts of stopping the regular work of other people, and call the government to stop such criminal acts otherwise quit the office.
If some people are not satisfied with anything they have the rights to stop their own business without hampering the business of other people. That is the peaceful and a non-violent protest against anything or anybody guaranteed by the Interim Constitution of Nepal of 2007. But stopping other people’s business means criminal acts. The government needs to bring them to justice. Enough is enough. Nepalis will not tolerate such criminal acts any more. They will rise against such acts.
