Remodeling Democracy in Nepal

The state failed to address the problems of poor, marginalised and indigenous groups and the power politics was scaling up without addressing the problems, there was, and still is, much skepticism about the capacity of conventional democracy to involve ordinary citizens in shaping and implementing the public policies.

 The basic fundamental principle of democracy should not be undermined and ignorged in order to have overall development of people and nation.The procedural and other woking modalities could be sought as per the requirement and necessity of nation.For the sake of national unity,nationality,continuity of independency,
sovereignty,territorial integrity and accepted model of democracy to entire Nepalis,the appropriate and affordable space from the perspectives of cultural,religious and symbolic of national harmony,to institution of monarchy seems to necessary for broader benefits of Nepal.Power makes corrupt and misuging the power bring instability and harmful to brighter democractic future of people,that is why,the institution of monarchy without any executive athority is the greater medication to current deseases of great and beautiful nation Nepal.Sometime,the thing might be be looked evil from its outer face but that seems necessary,so the necessary can not be ingnorged and forget for betterment and better solution.
Jaya Nepal !

MANDATE is unclear and constitution writing is a lot...
in most countries once upon a time elected they go doing what we expect them to do.
So what could one expect from the actually chosen, pretty much what they are doing.
Should people have opted for past rulers? I really think the current political scenario is what reality in Nepal is and democracy mainly is NEW and young and there is defenitely no democratic tradition. As a european westerner I am continuously crying at the lack of democracy, corruption and stealing of everyone, it seems to be a lifestyle.
Because they are not anymore aware of it the neigbours do it, the brothers do it they all do it, gossip, lie and steal.
or burn tyres for democrazy.
Nepal has a long way to go and probably the job of writing press is to mediate between the people that get ripped of, have lived for generations in slavery and the old gang of mafiosi.
No i have no faith in nepalese democracy it is exactly like India no one likes to change.
Main thing I repeat seems to be the creation of jobs. There is amongst young people no good attitude to want to work and the environment is not encouraging.
Between crying and praying there is a hell of a lot of education to do. Suppose they all stop fighting and the economy gets repaired democratic pacification is what most countries have. They just do not have to express their feelings so violently continuously. Those are the places people like to go. Multicultural societies with reasonable integration level.
Instead of complaining maybe we should rejoice in all that has been accomplished yet be mindful to keep a harmonious balance between conflicts of interests.
What would people give hope which is not the economy which is not hopeful? The peace progress.

DEMOCRACY a word which describes its meaning it self to the civilized person. The question that stroke my mind after reading this article was are we really practicing democracy. I personally believe and most of the democrats all over the world emphasize on the system of rules and regulation. Do we have a system that comprises of the practicable rules and laws. Are we undergoing or following the acts that are the fundamentals of the democracy.

Democracy says there is no one who can be aparted from the judiciary, are we really tasting this point of democracy in Nepal. If no is the answer of the above question, than we are only being said as the democratic country. The government is said to be democratic and the system is not democratic. We are just getting the oral democracy , it is not the democracy that is being practiced over here. No one is punished for violating rules. The student enters the college arena with the sword in its bag. The workers lock up there managers for their right, people can stop the highways any time they want, the press is not free of fear, the people's land and homes are abducted at any instant. If you are not going to pay the asked amount you might shorten your life. Is this the democracy Huh

So, I say we are not practicing democracy, what we are following is only the odd side of democracy. So, there is no need of remodelling democracy, but instead we need the real democracy comprising of human rights to every people, free fear environment steady and smooth running of country. Thus, there is no democratic system right now in our country, so bring democracy no need of modelling it.
