Layers after layers are being uncovered as to which factors were instrumental in allowing the then agitating seven parties to bag success during the April uprising of 2006.

The internal play and ploy of some forces here and there are being brought to the fore by none less than those who himself had been instrumental in supporting the then agitating seven parties against King Gyanendra’s autocratic regime.

The beauty of democracy is that nothing remains a secret time permitting. The press in a democratic system becomes the best tool to uncover the real happenings that catapult the entire politics of a particular country at a particular interval of history.

Thanks the democratic system that we the people have come to know of so many things that remained under play by certain alien forces which forced the King to kneel down and hand over the regime to the people’s representatives. We salute the press men who have dared to bring out the secret things to the open for the public consumption and by extension to the entire international community.

Question thus arises as to whether in reality politics is a dirty game? Is it in effect dirty or have we the people made it dirty? The answer to this question we leave to the august readers to mull over and switch onto the main topic of today’s write up.

Two things have come to the open in the recent days.

The first being a frightening one that related to an India based  foreign intelligence agency supporting the then seven parties with colossal amount of money to increase the tempo of the then waning agitation being carried out by the tired seven against King Gyanendra.

The amount that the Nepali media estimates is in itself a staggering figure which could for some time paralyse the brain of a simple and ordinary “we the people”.

Question is not that which agency poured in money and through whom, question is indeed related as to why this or that intelligence agency supported the agitating seven with such astronomical amount and for what purpose? Question thus also become pertinent as to secure what political benefits later that particular intelligence agency poured in money in order to provide a new height to the agitation led by the then major political parties?

Since this topic has been discussed at length in our front page and thus we would wish to switch on to an altogether new topic that also uncovers as to how the interim statute was drafted and what the drafters of the same say now. This part is no less hilarious than the previous one as this brings to the fore as to which forces were the real actors behind the scene in drafting the said interim statute.

Sambhu Thapa, the former President of the Nepal Bar Association who was himself one of the drafters of the said interim statute has summarily blamed that though most of his colleagues were in favor of effecting certain tangible changes in the now defunct constitution of the 1990, the political pressure was so intense that they could not do so instead some “foren” hands drafted the entire interim constitution overnight.

He even claims that it was the Indian intelligence agency and its posted agents in Nepal loitering around the drafting committee and Baluatar Palace who in effect drafted the constitution.

According to Thapa, the said constitution thus contains so many anomalies. Thapa reiterates that the clauses contained in the interim constitution that demanded rigorous debate amongst the drafters got simply passed under the “invisible” dictates of some foreign powers.

To recall, Narayan man Bijukche had then said that the draft of the interim constitution was itself an imported one and was written in an alien language.

If Bijukche were to be believed then what comes to the fore is that the Nepali drafters of the said constitution were simply put in place to exhibit “we the people” that “we the people” have drafted the same. However, the fact is just the otherwise as has been revealed none less than one of the main drafters of the constitution.

Now having said this question also arises as to why Thapa at this time dared to reveal the flaws and brings to the fore of the presence of some alien nationals and alien forces at work at time of the framing of the constitution?

Why he kept mum for so long? Has he developed some sort of “new found love” for the now sidelined King? Or else why he did not made it public then when he was feeling the brunt?

By and large, Thapa gives the picture of the current Nepali politics as to how we are being told to move.

By and by, Thapa’s declarations are indeed a million dollar one. However, it would be nice if he talked to a large gathering of the media men than what he has been doing now by talking to a select group of media men who possess some love for the now completely cornered monarchy.

In order to prove his blunt allegations, it is time that Thapa talks his inner feelings to a large gathering of the Nepali media men so that we the “rest of the people” know better as to what tricks were involved and who the guys were engaged in drafting the said constitution to which he says were a bundle of trash.
