napalean and karmarana,
you guys are looking for quick solution for the problems that started about 200 years ago.
revolution2062 (time)= change (rajas, maharajas,jaat-bhad, poverty,progress of neigbouring republics)
I understand your concern about Kathmandu turning into a ghost town and yet no symptoms of negotiations between King and SPA.if SPA leaders agree to become a puppet PM under article 35 of the already half dead constitution, where do maoists fit in Nepal's politics. Although I completely disagree with the violent path chosen by nepalese Maosits, but the question I have is- are they foreign nationals, are they a negligible minority? maoists are not just bunch of crazy people, it is also an idea but very different than royalists and somewhat similar to democratic activists.
in an ideal situation, negotiation between king,SPA, and maoists should be able to make a win-win deal by keeping a ceremonial monarch, SPA and maoists agreeing to run for fresh elections and form a united Nepal.
But Gyanu bro is not interested in giving away powers so easily, so republic Nepal has to be earned.I am all for the contitutional assembly. Let the people decide the future of the king, SPA and maoists.
Remember it is not just a revolution by SPA and maoists, it is also the revolution of educated doctors, lawyers, engineers, professors, journalists and human right activits.
