Political call for nomination and practise in Nepal

Today UCPN (Maoist) representatives came to my house with their political manifesto and  public campaign. It was very obvious for me as last year too the same candidate Hisila Yami had filed the nomination from the same place and she had won the election with huge number of votes.  When I saw them I asked them a question as we voted for her party last year, so before voting I wanted to know what was the result of her being in power last year?  My question was very genuine because I wanted to know what they had done and what they were planning to do.  

Answer: They replied we brought tankers for water distribution....

The campaigners were talking and highlighting what they had done at local level?

But my question still remained unanswered
What have you people done for the community and society last year thinking upon which i can reconsider my vote.

Answer was nothing just some blabber answer that were irrelevant.  

I was amazed the way the campaigners treated the public, as if they thought we were not educated and we didn't care about the country.

Hello I am a young generation youth and I beleive in action and hard core changes that would help my society to overcome the gaps between haves and haves not.

But the campaigners were silent, they wanted to know what our problems were and they were looking for instant solution to our limited problems. If thats the case then who would think about the long terms changes and problems. if political leaders are limited within the local problem then who would find solution and give visions  and leadership. I was surprised by the way our political parties lacked political vision and stability. We definitely need a political culture that understands and gives vision to the energy and development.

 Our country needs few attention subjects like:  
1. Taxpayer recognition
2. Transparency in Tax system
3. Effective political culture
4. Strict rules and regulation against corruption

Proposed ideology on Federalism practise 
1. UCPM(Maoist): 11 federal state based on ethnical identity and delineation of special autonomous regions, autonomous regions and protected areas based on the dominant presence of specific communities in certain areas
2. Nepali Congress: Option for 7 or 13 depending on discussion
3. UML: Seeks 7 states although open for discussion with all option open
4. RPP: 7 states, 2 in Terai-Madhes and 5 in mountainous region

Power management and Governance
1. 
UCPM(Maoist): Executive President directly elected and Prime Minister chosen by the parliament to run day to day government
2. Nepali Congress: Powerful President and executive Prime Minister elected from Parliament
3. UML: Ceremonial President and Executive Prime Minister
4. RPP: Ceremonial President and Executive Prime Minister
5. RPP Nepal: Ceremonial King and Directly elected Executive Prime Minister.

On Legislative Power:
1. UCPN (Maoist): Bicameral at center, Lower house based on population and equal representative from each provinces in the Upper house
2. Nepali Congress: Parliamentary System
3. UML: Parliamentary System
4. RPP: Parliamentary System

General election In Nepal 2013

Election indeed is a question of national interest for all but the syndicate of the four parties that  is driving the national interest is wrong and should be challenged. In any democratic system election means the voice of public, their aspiration and hopes are related with the formation of new government and political parties which cannot have a limitation or criteria but here in Nepal things are completely different. The four so called big parties are in the midst of conducting election despite the dis-interest shown by other political parties. They are pushing the line and putting everything in line to hold the general election 2013.   

Getting back to the opposition the Baidya party Communist Party of Nepal-Maoist (CPN-M) and the 33 other parties have been opposing the election with valid reasons:

1. The election government is lead by Khil Raj Regmi who is the chief justice of Nepal and according to the Constitution  of Nepal no one can obtain two official government position in any condition. Currently he has withheld the position of Chief Justice till the time of election and he would rejoin his post, which practically might sound okay but technically it is wrong. The opposition wants him to resign from the post of the chief justice in midst of maintaining rule of law which is valid.
2. They want the election dates to be shifted back by  4 months from the current date saying they need preparation time which is also valid 

In both the case I believe the Baidya  party and the 33 parties have the equal right to protest against the happening. The Baidya Party has publicly announced that they would retaliate the general election with force and action. They have made it public that if their demands are bypassed then they would kidnap the party election leaders during the course of polls.

It is very obvious that with such chaos election in coming Mangshir is not agreed upon by all.  The Baidya party Plus 33 parties want to extend the election for 4 months, I don't see any harm. Apart from that this election will just turn out to be nothing than a mockery of the democratic system of Nepal, if effective measures are not taken. How can it be democratic if only limited parties attended the polls? 

My question to all is how could this election be successful when more than 33 parties are out of league? Does the Nepali government have enough money to hold re-election? It is just the pressure of the Indian counterpart that wants to establish their rule here in Nepal as we all know the Indian election are approaching in India and there are chances that BJP Narendra Modi is in the line of  next Prime Minister’s position of India so the Congress party of India wants to establish their elected and supported government here in Nepal as they know if BJP party of India wins the election then there are huge chances that Monarchy might return here in Nepal..  
I think election is the right of Nepali people so the people of Nepal should be given the right to choose their representation or not for any political manipulation or political game  .............
