Politics VS Judiciary in Nepal - A question to be answered

With high controversies and allegation for the extension of the Constitution Assembly (CA), the Supreme Court (SC) on Friday issued a verdict saying the term of the CA can be extended for the last time for six more months and further extension of the Constitution Assembly would automatically dissolve the CA in any case scenario. As per the interim constitution 2063 Clause 64, the Constituent Assembly term could only be extended for the last time after analyzing the tasks completed so far, and making exact judgment of the needed time required to accomplish the remaining tasks. In case the CA fails to draft the constitution in the extend term it will be automatically dissolve it. It should either go for a referendum as provisioned in Article 157 or opt for a fresh election as per Article 63 or seek a suitable alternative.

On 27 November, 2011, a total of 506 CA members participated in the voting, and 503 members voted in favor of the CA extension while three members voted against it. With the decision, the parliament has now endorsed the 11th Amendment Bill which was proposed by the government for an extension of the CA term. This is the fourth time that the CA's term has been extended. The CA, which was elected in 2008 with a two-year term, has already been extended three times before.

In defense the speaking in the Special Hour of the House session, UCPN-Maoist leader Amik Sherchan said, “The Supreme Court has gone against the principle of Separation of Power and it has also violated the jurisdiction of the legislative-parliament.”

Dhirendra Bahadur Shrestha a CPN-UML parliament member accused the SC of interfering in the parliament’s rights. He said that the job of the constitution amendment is the right of the Parliament and not the Supreme Court.

The current CA is based on the interim constitution that was revived by the public revolution 2008 under no policy or article allows the Constitution assembly to extend its period again and again baselessly or under any parliamentary rights.

After declaring the Republican the new CA outcaste the monarchy regime in Nepal on May 28 2008, the new CA was formed under the understanding of creating a new constitution and solving the peace process. From then till here to this day the extension and constitution has been a controversial issue raising questions against the credibility of the Lawmakers and their intentions of extending the CA time frame.

According to a report published by MIREST Nepal recently that refers to the expenses made on Peace and Constitution beginning 2007 to 2011 is to the staggering tune of Nrs. 15 Billion. It must have been more than meets the eye. Similarly, expenses made on the Maoists’ People Liberation Army (Monthly salary, food and shelter) are Nrs. 2.44 Billion during the period. Amount spent in reconstruction of physical infrastructure is Nrs. 30 Billion. For Constituent Assembly election and Constitution drafting process Nrs.13.19 billion has been spent.

To run various peace process related projects, Nrs. 8.19 Billion has been siphoned.

UNMIN related expense is Nrs. 13.19 Billion and fund allocated to the Peace Fund at the Ministry of Peace and Reconstruction is Nrs. 22.24 Billion.

The question has been raised against the credibility of the lawmakers and lack of political understanding regarding the Constitution of Nepal. The specific issues that were raised are still in table limited in agreements and points where people’s hopes and aspiration seems to have lacked down. The political culture seems to be very limited within the political manifesto of their parties where the political parties have no ethic and moral. The politicians challenging the Judiciary and political manipulation taking its toll in Nepal seems very unhealthy. Politician openly threatening and criticizing the judiciary highlighting their rights undermining their standing of taking the pay and not completing the job is a question to itself. In such scenarios Nepal’s future seems doomed in the prospects of its leaders who lack of Vision, Diplomacy and political understanding. The cheap marketing stunts and popularity seems to outcry its audacity where controversies and allegation are just pointing fingers at each other’s.

PLA Numbers Inconsistent - Up or down a question for the Maoists party in Nepal

Kathmandu Nepal: With the categorization process in high swing, the real number of People Liberation Army (PLA) numbers and the frauds that was happening in the name of relief has come up. It was determined on Monday the last day of the categorization where a special team was devised by the newly formed government to deal with the peace process and the categorization process. Data show that the United Communist Party of Nepal (UCP- Maoists) was drawing an extra NRS 27 million in the name of deserters who were never present there. The recent categorization process shows the number of ex-Maoist combatants to be short by around 3,000 till date. On contrary the UCP –Maoist party has been making efforts to get the deserters back in the process of categorization.

According to the Special Committee for categorization, “Till date altogether 15,747 ex-Maoist soldiers have showed up. The categorization process expired on Monday where extension has been made for 3 more days looking at situation and time. Currently the categorization is left for only 1,094, in the Kailali Cantonment.”

In recognition of their contribution, the Nepal Government issues NRS 6,500 in allowance and Rs 2,730 on average for rations to each combatant every month.

Raising high controversies the records of the last month show the Office of Cantonment Management released allowances and rations to 19,525 combatants in total, which clearly shows the misappropriation and corruption happening at that level.

The current data submitted by the special committee certainly raises questions, regarding the misuse of resources allocated for combatant allowances and rations by the UCP-Maoists

The body of shubham was found wrapped in a luggage bag that was placed at Super Sita Yatayat’s ticket booking counter. It has been reported that the boy died due to lethal amounts of chloroform inhalation.

Ram Bhagat Sah, the father of the kid said, “The caller first demanded a ransom of Rs 5 million, then Rs 4 million and eventually Rs 2.5 million, their demand kept fluctuating highlighting if he doesn’t pays the money then they will kill the child. He filed a complaint at Metropolitan Police Crime Division, Hanumandhoka and the police started guiding and instructing him.”

Nepal’s Political condition lays unrest and unsecured with a question to bad political culture……

From the appointment of Dr. Baburam Bhattrari to his so called political apathy of bringing relief to the general public has outgrown its image and aspirations. Bold with the statement of making the smallest government to spending NRS 2.7 million in just one hi-tea program, to the BIPPA agreement, to making the biggest government, certainly shows the image and practice of this new political culture. Diluting its credibility and image any one can clearly know the political games and manipulation happening with Baburam’s government. With such propaganda and controversies, the country seems to lack no solution for its political instability and chaos.

Forming a coalition government and being the 35the Prime minister of Nepal, Baburam showed immense hope to the public in taking the country towards the path of development. Making people believe of finding a solution to the peace process and the constitution was the final point of understanding which was nevertheless in question.

His appointment in post expected a certain level of political morality and ethics that certainly seems to stretch with the outcry of publicity and marketing strategy that has been adapted and practiced. The lack of political understanding and the gaps between the political parties certainly shows the bad example of political culture and its practice in Nepal.

The Peace process and constitution seems to be in a pendulum state which searches its definition among the intrinsic factor that influences and manipulates it identity at times of need or else it’s just there to hold its position for the recognition.


Constitution Making: Constitution making process has been a joke from the past 3 years where the chairman of the Constitution Assembly Subash Nembang fails to recognize the importance of time validation and believes in extension of the Constitution Assembly again and again. What can we expect from leaders like this? Searching solution for the stalled Constitution in the area conflict, public memorandum is the best possible solution but it seems the Nepali Constitution Assembly (CA) Law Makers and political parties are scared that their regular income will be curbed. Legally Law makers earn NRS 60,000 (USD 800) per month officially excluding perks so one can imagine the level of income that they are enjoying.

Peace Process: Looking at it from an expert’s point of view, peace process is like the middle point of a stoppage. All the parties and law makers talk about Peace and how it should be managed but when it comes to the management and table things don’t work. Reality is peace process is agreed upon the points of agreement and terms of reference that are being signed to make government but when it comes to action bad political practices rules in. The coalition government was formed to solve the peace process but it’s so happening that peace process seems to be the greatest hindrance for the current government.

Moving forwards with the peace process seven teams of 210 surveyors have been set up for the categorization of 19,000 Maoist combatants. They are expected to complete the categorization process by November 28, where at policy level things seem unclear. On Sunday Maoist Chairman Pushpa Kamal Dahal reached Bardiya accompanied by UML leader Bamdev Gautam and NC leader Krishna Prasad Sitaula to direct his party cadres to return land seized during the insurgency to their rightful owners, but returned Kathmandu without giving unambiguous directives to the cadres in this regard. Some of the party cadres had also threatened to retaliate if the properties were returned to the owners forcefully.

It is estimated that the United Communist Parties of Nepal (Maoist) has captured around 2,000 bighas of private and public land in Bardiya. According to the district administration office, 242 families have registered complaints about seizure of land by the Maoists.

In 2010 the UN had rehabilitated over 4,000 disqualified combatants, including child soldiers. These combatants disqualified by the United Nations Mission in Nepal during the 2007 verification of the Maoist army have frequently expressed their dissatisfaction over their rehabilitation.

Amid lack of political modality and culture, Nepal political situation lies in a rest situation pointing figures at each other. Political leaders getting rich and famous and political agendas lacking recognition is a question of where we are moving. The definite solution to any problem can be done if there is an effort to solve but when there is no effort there is no solution.

Bhutanese refugee on hunger Strike unto-death

The Bhutanese refugees at Beldangi-based Bhutanese refugee Camp are under fast-unto-death from the past 7 days. The hunger strike started from November 15 which is organized by the Relief Deprived Bhutanese Refugees Women’s Group where 15 women strictly following the hunger strike. The women group started the strike demanding the different donor’s identity cards be given the cards and the provision of ration distributed accordingly.


According to Rastriya Samachar Samiti(RSS), “ Acting Chief District Officer of Jhapa district, Yogendra Dulal, coordinator of the Human Rights Organization of Nepal, East Region chapter, Dr. K.P. Subedi, among others had held talks with the representatives of the Women’s Group on Sunday in an effort to break the hunger strike. But the talks failed as the people staging the hunger strike were adamant they would not break their fast until all their demands were met. The Group claims that 3,649 Bhutanese refugees living in six camps in Jhapa and Morang districts have missed the verification carried out by the UN High Commission on Refugees and therefore have not got the identity cards with them which has resulted in they being deprived of various relief assistance given to the refugees.”

According to Bhutanese Refugees .com, “Since 1991 over one sixth of Bhutan's people have sought asylum in Nepal, India and other countries around the world. The vast majority of the refugees are Lhotshampas, one of Bhutan’s three main ethnic groups, who were forced to leave Bhutan in the early 1990s. There is ample evidence, as documented by Amnesty International and other human rights organisations that the expulsion of large numbers of Lhotshampas was planned and executed with meticulous attention to detail. Over 105,000 Bhutanese have spent more than 15 years living in refugee camps established in Nepal by the United Nations High Commission for Refugees. Thousands more are living outside the camps in Nepal and India, and some in North America, Europe and Australia.

Since 2008 a resettlement process has seen many thousands of Bhutanese refugees from the camps in Nepal being re-settled primarily in the USA but also in Canada, Australia, Denmark, New Zealand, the Netherlands and Norway.”

SPARK OF CHANGE- What Next !!!!!!!!!

This Video is dedicated to the SPARK OF CHANGE where it addresses the frustration and aggravation of youths who believe and want to bring CHANGE. As today the new culture of No is tolling its heights, we have money but we have no petrol, no electricity, no security,no constitution, no water etc. what so ever and still we are the onces who have to keep silent our VOICE, thats done..........

Our government and leaders are completely careless about their responsibilities where they need to be awaken and informed that people are watching. We have taken them into power that means we the people have the power to take them down. The most important thing is awareness when people talk about the issues that's when it gets noticed and then the spark of change can be ignited. Change comes slowly and steadily. It's not an ice-cream that tastes better or you have to finish it fast, Change is something thats very slow, silent, simple, rigid, and protagonist

Everest Region and Human waste a problem

Climate change has been a global issue of talks especially in big conferences and seminars but when it comes to ground reality it always lacks its practicability in different areas of application. Climate change is an issue of development and growth which is hard to overcome. Like said that climate change issues have not only evolved as a big problem but it also threatens its victim with the by-products that are more alerting.

On contrary it also highlights as a powerful sector of investment and opportunities with dues of limited accessibility and contradiction. Reality is it has been a constant issue of talks for what must be done on the controversial side where nobody talks about it’s by products and its hard affects which is more or less important. To be specific especially for a country like Nepal with limited Green house gas emission rate of 0.11 per person per country which is anything and still the effects of climate change is clearly visible in Nepal. Blaming climate change as the main cause of problems if you look at Nepal’s situation it is very vivid to its practices of how, and what is happening here.

From the melting of the Glacier due to temperature rise in the Himalayan region to the farming externalities of pest, climate change has been an issue of attracting donor money with no end results. Sorting the techniques climate change not only initiates cons but it also has its pros with profitable applications which to some extent shadows in. Sidelining these issues these days a new issue has evolved in the Himalayan region. The current problem other than temperature rise in the Himalayan region is taking shape of immediate attention highlighting the lack of proper waste management. Though the government with its stipulated rules and regulation has created provision of liaison officer and checking waste management but more or less to its practicality the lack of moderation certainly is piling up the Everest region with waste that are visible and waste that not visible(human waste) .

Under the Mountaineering Rules and Regulation 2059, under section 15 sub head of Functions and Duties of a Mountain Guide, it is clearly stated To bring back the garbage that came out above the base camp while using any commodity to the base camp compulsorily similarly under .

Section 27 titled Classification and Management of Garbage defines following points:

(1)The garbage shall be classified for the purpose of garbage management used by the mountaineering expedition team as follows:

(a) Garbage which can be destroyed

(b) Garbage which can be recycled

(c) Garbage which his to be re imported

(2)The materials to be considered the garbage pursuant to sub rule (1) shall be as prescribed in Schedule –10.

Schedule 10

(Relating to sub rule (2) of Rule 27)

The materials to be considered as garbage

The following materials shall come under the following garbage:-

(a) Garbage which can be destroyed: Toilet paper, paper, cardboard, things made from bamboo, jute and cotton bag, decomposed food or dead body.

(b) Garbage which can be recycled: Tin, bottle, jar, plastic can, plastic shit, reusable gas cylinder, and plastic bag or gas container.

(c)Garbage which has to be re-imported: Used oxygen bottle, used battery, equipment to be used for climbing or personnel goods etc.

Surfacing the fact of the application and visibility few attempts have been made in bring back the visible waste but what about the bio hazardous ( Human Waste). Can you imagine your waste being frozen there for ages and still have the potentiality of being harmful for the environment? It’s like time stops where everything else is frozen. The effects of lack of waste management are visible.

During the summer season when the snow melts dead crops of mountaineers can be seen in unreachable areas lying abandon. Likewise with the threat of melting down of the glacier the lack of management of waste in the Everest region has significantly triggered the utmost need of managing the human waste there. Though limited efforts have been done with collecting human waste through the waste bags in the lower region of the Everest but a condition to rethink about the upper region certainly hinder to consider about the waste management process.

In a report of United Nation Environment Program, states “ Concentrated visitor activity in mountain areas generates significant amounts of both solid waste and wastewater, which can pollute water and soil through improper storage and disposal. Solid waste can build up from food and beverage consumption and the disposal of used packaging, supplies and equipment. Certain types of waste, including pharmaceuticals, personal products and cleaning products may contain dangerous chemicals that can harm local ecosystems, wildlife or people. Accidental or poorly managed discharges of oils and fuels from vehicles, vessels or equipment can be a significant source of water or soil pollution. Wastewater and sewage from facilities, water craft and animals, such as sled dogs and horses, can also easily pollute freshwater resources, particularly since human and other wastes and chemicals break down more slowly in alpine areas.”

Till date it is estimated that more than 1million people have reached the Everest region from the time of its first scale and their waste lies as a ticking time bomb frozen and waiting for the right time to be released with all its fury. It certainly can ruin the mountain environment and its surrounding ecosystem. Huge efforts are made to stop garbage and littering in Everest region but a less ignored area is the human waste which is certainly more threatening and being ignored. More specific policies are needed with better mechanisms to curb this problem or else Everest region will be yet another environmental disaster.

Supreme Court of Nepal has ordered to withheld – License to KILL


Kathmandu, November 13: The Supreme Court of Nepal has ordered the Government and the President not to take any action in the Murder case of Lawmaker Bal Krishna Dhungel until November 21 when the court is scheduled to decide whether to stay with or without the controversial recommendation. On Sunday the legal body with the growing pressure from the public and other national and international organization issued a statement ordering the president and the government not to act on the government recommendation to pardon Maoist lawmaker Bal Krishna Dhungel, a murder convict. The Supreme Court’s single bench of Justice Tahir Ali Ansari had convicted Dhungel for the first degree murder in 2010 with property attachment for the murder of Ujjan Shrestha in 2004.


The government of Nepal had recommended the pardon on political grounds where the Ujjan Shrestha case study shows no political affiliation with the case. Despite the huge protest from the public, national and international human rights groups, the Government of Nepal is still silent about the issue.

In a recent public statement issue by Prachanda, the Maoist supremo and a lawmaker, “The case of Bal Krishna is the case that was lobbied during the time of Madhav Kumar Nepal’s Government, but due to unavoidable circumstances it was neglected and currently the political parties are making an issue out of it which is completely irrelevant.”

In reply to this statement, Madhav Kumar Nepal Former Prime minister and a leader of the UML party said, “ We had not decide anything like this in fact the way Maoist leader are pulling the case seems very unpractical. If anyone is proven guilty then he or she must be brought by the book. Law of rule is equal to all if not then why do we need judicial system.”

The withheld situation came in action in midst of a deadlock situation of direct confrontation of the legal body and government of Nepal. With high controversies and protest from people, the President of Nepal was seen hesitant about the issue. For this, the court has ordered the lawyers of both sides to be present before the court November 21.
