This is not right. The seven party alliance worked out a 12 point agreement with the Maoists by making a constituent assembly also part of their agenda. That is the meeting point. Now the seven party alliance has worked out the first step. This is a good thing, the first step towards a constituent assembly. This first step also was part of that 12 point agreement.

There was no formal alliance between the SPA and the Maoists, the 12 point agreement is an understanding. The April 6-9 program was a SPA program. The Maoists supported it from outside, and once it really took off beyond the wildest imagination of the SPA and the Maoists, both rushed to take credit. The BBC interviews of Girija and Mahara on the 10th were the high point of that tussle.

But now the program has been called off by the SPA, and that is it. The SPA is on to its victory rally, and the Maoists are going to have to call off their blockade, or they would be blockading the government of the seven party alliance. And if that happens, the SPA will rightfully break up with the Maoists.

The Maoists are about to spoil the broth. They should not do it.

The king has formally endorsed the SPA roadmap. He has formally endorsed the constituent assembly idea. The SPA did not ask for anything else. The SPA has not abandoned the 12 point agreement.

I hope the Maoists are not out to prove Moriarty right. Because if they are then the Maoist-Democrat understanding comes to an end, and the global powers will resume their military aid to the SPA government. And Nepal will see a new round of war. Why would we want that? Why would the Maoists want that?

The Maoists don't have the option to pull a Lenin or a Mao. They don't have the option to use the democrats and the king against each other.

The king has finally come around to the constituent assembly idea. Why will the Maoists now want to abandon that plank? Because if they are going to organize a boycott of the Girija Koirala led SPA government, what message are they sending to the democrats?

I don't care much for the Maoist ideology, but there can be no compromise on human rights, not with the king, not with Prachanda. Prachanda is no royalty. He might as well not pretend.
But Maoist leader Prachanda said that the seven parties had committed "another historic mistake" and encouraged the people to continue their protests until the parties declared elections for an assembly to write a new constitution.
I think it is a welcome move on the part of Prachanda that he is cautious, that he wants to make sure there will be elections to a constituent assembly. But a blockade is not how you do that.

18 Days Of April Revolution: Victory

Prachanda should not try too hard to rain on the democrats' victory parade, or he makes that same constituent assembly less possible.

The Maoists have said they are going to continue blockading the capital city and the district headquarters. If this is their cynical way of suggesting the people came out in the streets because basic supplies went short, he is grossly mistaken. He is also being disrespectful of the people who came out into the streets. The people marched for freedom, not out of basic desperation.

Madhesi Rights: Total Equality


The Madhesi issue is the number one social issue in Nepal. Just like there is casteism and sexism in the hills, there is casteism and sexism in the Terai, sure. There is poverty in the Pahad, there is poverty in the Terai. There is poverty in Kathmandu.

But the poor Madhesis who sell fruits and vegetables in Kathmandu don't feel like their poverty helps them attain some kind of solidarity with the poor folks in Kathmandu. They bear the brunt of some of the most explicit anti-Madhesi prejudice. It is ethnic. It is regionalism. We should think up a few more names to describe the phenomenon.

Janajatis are better off than the Madhesis. Look at their numbers in America. Ending up in America is a socio-economic achievement. Not many Madhesis have made it. The social filters in Nepal keep many behind.

The Madhesis in Nepal fare worse than the Dalit, Janajati and Mahila. Maybe not Dalit. There are even fewer Dalits in America than there are Madhesis. Maybe the Madhesi and the Mahila are comparable. But the Mahila who have made it are too busy asserting their ethnic identities.

Prejudice is like radioactivity: it can be measured.

It is about India, perhaps. India is big. No, it is huge. Wait, it is humongous. Nepal is small, tiny. A big chunk of Nepali false nationalism is based on anti-Indianism. But then it is not about India. Otherwise the Indians of Darjeeling and Assam would also be at the receiving end.

It is a cultural definition. And it is vicious.

Women are half the planet, but they don't have the associated power. Power is more than numbers. Power comes from solidarity. Numbers are not enough.

Madhesis are half of Nepal, some say 40%. What women are on the planet, the Madhesi are in Nepal.

Hate is an attack on the Madhesi identity. But you got to get along with the Pahadi to move about, and many Madhesis end up internalizing the hate. There is self-hate. It is hard for many Madhesis to get along with other Madhesis. You look at the other person, and you see a Madhesi face. And sometimes you don't like what you see. It is self hate at work.

The first step has to be to claim the identity. If you are born a Madhesi, you are pretty much stuck with the identity. You might as well claim it. You claim it and then you take pride. And when you take pride, and you assert the solidarity, then you are equipped to deal with the hate, the prejudice, the discrimination. You conquer the self hate, and then you attack the hate. Then numbers matter. But when you are still struggling with the self hate, numbers are no help. They feel like a burden.

The prejudiced Pahadis, they will not even utter the word. Their most vicious feeling is on this question, and they will tell you the identity called Madhesi does not exist. They will talk up the castes in the Terai. They will even talk of women. Women there are, Dalits there are, but they are all Madhesi.

And when they are not trying to break you up like that, they are trying to dissolve you. Why do you say you are Madhesi? Why don't you say you are a Nepali? To that you give my reply. You urge them to adopt the larger Desi identity and contribute to world peace.

Some will tell you people from the Terai are fine, it is Indians they don't like. So when they say "madisey," they don't mean the people from the Terai, they mean Indians. To them you give my reply. I am half Indian, how dare you!

The Pahadis are Madhesi in America. The Madhesis in Nepal are worse off comparatively than the African Americans in America. And the Pahadis are the Madhesi in America. That is a political observation. The only way they can better their situation in America is by forging an alliance with the larger Desi identity. That is where I come in. I am a Desi. The word Nepali never included me. I am half Indian. I am a Desi.

Maturity would be if Pahadis realized everyone is better off when prejudice is overcome. Whites and blacks are both better off because segregation was ended. Prejudice is disease. Disease is no fun. And so Pahadis should participate in the drive against anti-Madhesi prejudice. I am not being cynical. I am being matter of fact.

Suddenly a constituent assembly is on the horizon. And Madhesis now want to talk of Madhesi rights. Might as well.

Conversation matters. Talk matters. Discussions matter. Meetings matter. Get togethers matter. Have many of them. That is how political progress is made. Reach out to other Madhesis.

It will not be neat and tidy. Some Madhesis will want to talk caste. Let them. Some gender. Let them. Encourage them. Equality does not make sense only on the Madhesi issue. It also makes sense on caste issues, also on gender, especially on gender, extra true of the Dalit issue. I think all Dalits should convert to Buddhism. Give up on Hinduism, flat out. Enough is enough. Pull the rug from beneath their feet.

There is much political work to be done.

Step one would be to secure the constituent assembly. Step two would be to make sure the assembly is about one person, one vote. And all along we will have to work to marshall a platform. What do Madhesis want? And we are going to have to come out into the streets, peacefully. We are going to have to march. We just secured the right to peaceful assembly, now we are going to put it to use. We are going to march.

What could be our platform? I think federalism is one issue all Madhesis could agree on. That will also allow us to possibly forge an alliance with the Janajati. What I have to offer, I have already offered here: Proposed Republican Constitution 2006.

I have touched on federalism, on languages. If nothing, my proposed constitution is a framework for dialogue. I hope it is a productive framework.

As for my personal involvement. This blog is not journalism, this is political work. Howard Dean organized his entire presidential campaign in 2004 around a blog. This blog has been the only way I could reach out to a global audience of Nepalis, including those in Nepal.

Many people urge me to go back to Nepal. That is not in the cards. I hope to stay intimately involved all the way to the country getting itself a new constitution and even after, and I have invented an organization to that effect, Hamro Nepal, but I have to stay in New York City. It is a Global South thing. Nepal will benefit. (Hamro Nepal, Latest)

By the time you get to my level of involvement, the Madhesi issue is just one other social issue. I have to learn to get a little detached. And that is why I harbor a keen interest in the larger DaMaJaMa issues.

ितमीले देखाइ िदयौ

भन्नेले भन्दै िथए
नेपाली जनताको ठेगान छैन
सुतेका छन्, नबुझ्ने छन
बरु िवश्व सुतेको पाएँ
नेताहरु दुइ कदम पछािड रहेको पाएँ
ितमी त यसरी बर्िसयौ
संसारमा कहीं नभएको क्रान्ित नेपालमा भयो
ितमीले गर्यौ
नेताहरुले चार िदन भने
ितमीले अठारह िदन िदयौ
नेताहरुले आन्दोलन भने
ितमीले क्रान्ित िदयौ
ितमीलाई नतमस्तक सलाम
ितमी यसरी उर्िलएर आयौ
म िनहुिरएँ, राजा िनहुिरयो
ितमीले पक्कै पिन मनसुन डाकेको हुनुपर्छ
लोकतन्त्र त बोनस हो
ितमी सडकमा आउँदा मेरो िदलमा हर्षको सुनामी आयो
ितम्रो बिलदानले िवश्व इितहासमा एक पाना थिपयो
ितमीले पसीना बगायौ, ितमीले रगत बगायौ
पसीना झैं रगत बगायौ
ितम्रो िनधार अझ पिन तात्तातै छ
मलाई ितमीले आभार प्रकट गर्न िसकाउ
ितमीले िवश्व भिर छिरएर रहेका नेपालीलाई गुण लगाएका छौ
आज सबैको िशर ठाडो छ
ितमीले गर्दा हो
यो एक्काइसौं शताब्दीको पिहलो ठुलो क्रान्ित हो
िवश्वले यसलाई अप्िरल क्रान्ित भनेर िचन्ने छ
क्रान्ित त अझ जारी छ
तर अब देश बन्द नगरे पिन जारी रहने क्रान्ित हो यो
यो अप्िरल क्रान्ित त ितमीले िबहान उठेर दाँत माझेको हो
ब्रेक्फास्ट, लन्च र िडनर त अझ अगािड छ
हे योद्धा, यो सडक ितम्रो हो, िथयो र सधैं भिर रिहरहनेछ
ितमीलाई मेरो सलाम
ितमीलाई नतमस्तक सलाम

जाउलो खाएर क्रान्ित गर

तरकारी महँगो भयो भने
जाउलो खाएर क्रान्ित गर
तरकारी महँगो भएको बहानामा ितमीले क्रान्ित रोक्यौ भने
नाित पनाितले सराप्लान
बन्द गिरदेउ देश एक चोिट सर्लप्प
तािक फेिर किहले पिन बन्द गर्न नपरोस्
लोकतान्त्िरक गणतन्त्रको नाराले पाँच छ जना शहीद भइसके
अिहले क्रान्ित रोक्यौ भने
तीनै शहीदले सराप्लान्
खै ती शहीदलाई त तरकारी महँगो भएन
ितमीलाई पिन तरकारी महँगो नभएकै हुनुपर्छ
यो तरकारी महँगो भएको हल्ला ंमण्डलेहरुले फैलाएको हल्ला हुनुपर्छ
तरकारीको मूल्य त मण्डले प्रोपगाण्डा हो
तरकारीको मूल्यको कुनै अर्थ नै छैन
कहाँ क्रान्ित, कहाँ तरकारी
क्रान्ित गर
क्रान्ित गिरराख
क्रान्ितकारी संसदको स्थापना नभएसम्म क्रान्ित नरोक
क्रान्ितकारी अन्तिरम संिवधान अन्तर्गतको क्रान्ितकारी संसदको स्थापना नभएसम्म क्रान्ित कायम राख
नत्र नाित पनाितले सराप्लान
यो आन्दोलन होइन, यो त क्रान्ित हो
 कुनै देशको इितहासमा हजार वर्षमा एक पटक हुन्छ
सात पार्टीले गरेको आन्दोलन होला, माओवादीले गरेको आन्दोलन होला
राजाले देखे नदेखे गरेको आन्दोलन होला
तर ितमीले गिरराखेको त क्रान्ित हो
क्रान्ितले वार्ता गर्दैन
क्रान्ितले क्रान्ितकारी अन्तिरम संिवधान अन्तर्गतको
क्रान्ितकारी संसदको स्थापना गर्छ
त्यो नभएसम्म ितमी जाउलो खाएर क्रान्ित गिरराख
तरकारीको मूल्यको कुनै अर्थ नै छैन
शहीदको रगतको अर्थ छ
त्यसैले

ये तो क्रान्ित है

कोइ कहते हैं ये आन्दोलन है
दो चार लोग सडक पर इकट्ठा करेंगे
ओैर जाएंगे राजासे िभख माङ्ने
कहेंगे प्रभु दे दो प्रजातन्त्र, कृपा करो
इकट्ठा तो कर ही ली है हमने भीड
दुरबीन लगा के देख लो
खुद अपनी आँखोंसे
क्युँ िछने
िछने भी तो अब तो वापस कर दो
बहुत हो गई
मैलमें क्युँ उतर आए
वो िकचड तो हमारे िलए है
तुम वापस िसंहासन पर िवराजमान हो जाओ
बहुत हो गई
लेिकन मैं कहता हुँ ये तो क्रान्ित है
जनता सडक पर उतर आई है
मनसुन क्या खाक आएगी
ये तो मनसुनसे पहले क्रान्ित आ गई
मनसुनकी तरह
लोगोंके मुहसे िनकल रही बािरसको देखो
क्या बौंछार है
एक जमाना था
जगह जगह मलेिरयाका प्रकोप था
सब जगह पोिलयो िथ
देश देशमें एक राजा हुवा करता था
पोिलयो तो समाप्त हुई
राजतन्त्र भी समाप्त होगी
श्री ५ का भी कोइ सरकार होता है क्या
सरकार तो जनताकी होती है
उसको नेपाल सरकार कहके बुलाया जाता है
ये एक बच्चा पैदा हो रहा है
नेपालमें पहली बार लोकतन्त्रकी स्थापना होने जा रही है
कोइ इसको नेतृत्व क्या देगा
बाढ जो नदी में आती है
उसको कौन नेतृत्व देता है
ये तो क्रान्ित है
आग लग चुकी है
ज्वाला धधक रहा है
लोगोके चेहरा पर गर्व है
उस गर्वको देखो
वार्ताकी तो बात ही न करो
बात आगे बढ चुकी है
ये कोइ हडताल है जो वार्ता होगी
ये तो क्रान्ित है
क्रान्ितकी एक लक्ष होती है
देखो लोगोंको कैसे सडक पर उतर आए हैं
िदलमें धधक रही आगको देखो
ये तो स्वतन्त्रताकी उन्माद है
कैसे मस्त मस्त झुम रहे हैं
कीर्ितपुर, िचतवन, मैतीदेवी गणतन्त्रकी घोषणा कर ली
वार्ता कहाँ हुइ
रुपन्देहीमें नाम दे िदया उन्होने
नेपाल सरकार, नेपाल सरकार
बगैर वार्ताके
ये तो क्रान्ित है
क्रान्ित एक क्रान्ितकारी संसदकी स्थापना करती है
क्रान्ित वार्ता नहीं करती
ये बन्दरका खेल नहीं, ये तो क्रान्ित है

यो सडक ितम्र्ो हो

घरबाट िनस्केर आउ सडकमा
पर्खाल हाम्फालेर आउ
अंकमाल गरेर आउ
कौसीबाट हाम्फाल
ढोका खोलेर आउ
यो सडक ितम्रो हो

फािसस्टहरुले देश बेच्न लािगसके
राजा नभए देश रहन्छ
देश नरहे ितमी रहन्नौ
ितम्रो घरमा अँध्यारो छ
बत्ती बाल्ने बेला यही हो
आउ सडकमा
यो सडक ितम्रो हो

आँधीबेरी जस्तै आउ
मनसुनको बर्सात भएर आउ
तर मनसुन आउनु अगािड आउ
यो आन्दोलन समयको तकाजा हो
यो वर्तमान, यो भिवष्य ितम्रो हो
त्यसैले आउ सडकमा
यो सडक ितम्रो हो

गाउँ गाउमा आउ
शहर शहरमा आउ
िजल्लाको सदरमुकाममा आउ
राजधानीमा त ओइरेर आउ
लाखौंको संख्यामा आउ
िकनभने
यो सडक ितम्रो हो

आन्दोलन सफल हुन्छ
सडक रगताम्मे हुन्छ
िवजयको अबीरले
दशकौंपिछ नाित पनाितले सोध्लान
क्रान्ितका दौरान ितमी कहाँ िथयौ
ितमीले भन्नु नपरोस्
ितमी कोठामा टीभी हेरेर बसेका िथयौ
अथवा बार्दलीबाट रिमता हेरेर बसेका िथयौ
त्यसैले सडकमा आउ
यो सडक ितम्रो हो

कमल थापा हावाको गोली हान्दैछन्
ितमी बोलीको गोली हान
नारा लगाउ
कमल थापा, तुल्सी िगरीलाई जेल पुर्याउ
माधव नेपाललाई जेलबाट फुत्काउ
आउ, ितमी सडकमा आउ
यो सडक ितम्रो हो

राजा नागिरक र व्यापारी भएर बसुन्
नत्र भने जेल जाउन
मतलब छैन
मतलब ितम्रो छ
भरे बाटो कुरेर बस्न नपरोस्
ितमी रातभिर जागाराम भएर पिन आउ
एका िबहानै आँखा िमच्दै आउ
लाखौंको संख्यामा आउ
माित्तएको गोरु जस्तै िनर्धक्क भएर आउ
िकनिक
यो सडक ितम्रो हो

आउ, आउ
सडकमा आउ

तिमी सडकमा उत्रेको देखेको छु

न्यु यर्क कहिले ननिदाउने शहरमा
इन्टरनेट मेरो पर्दा नलाग्ने झ्याल भएको छ
टाढैबाट भए पनि
सडकमा तिमीले जुन स्वतन्त्रता संग्राम मच्चाएका छौ
त्यसलाई मैले यहाँबाट नै प्रणाम गरेको छु
रगताम्मे निधारमा मैले भोलिको नेपाल देखेको छु
महिला पुरुष एक भएर, विद्यार्थी बुज्रुक एक भएर
तिमीले देखेको सपना, हे योद्धा
साकार हुन्छ, अवश्य हुन्छ
किनभने स्वतन्त्रता बाहिर मानवताको कुनै अस्तित्व छैन
तिमी त्यहाँ होस्टे गर, म यहाँ हैंसे गर्छु
तिमी भन इन्किलाब, म भन्छु यहाँ जिन्दाबाद
तिमी भन तानाशाही, म यहाँ भन्छु मुर्दाबाद
तिम्रो निधारको रगत बिहानीको सुर्य हो
क्षितिजमा त्यो आइसकेको छैन, तर सारा आकाश रगताम्मे छ
त्यो विहान अवश्य आउँछ
त्यो नीतिको नियम हो
वाग्मतीको पानी कसले रोक्न सक्छ
कोशी जहिले बगेकै छ
स्वतन्त्रता त्यस्तै एकोहोरो हुन्छ
लोकतन्त्रको आवाज शंखनाद हो
यो मेघ झैं गर्जन्छ
अहिंसा भनेको अणु बमभन्दा भयानक हतियार हो
यदि त्यो स्वतन्त्रता सेनानीको हातमा पर्छ भने
हे वीर योद्धा
तिमीलाई मेरो सलाम
तिमी भन त्यहाँ इन्किलाब, म भन्छु यहाँ जिन्दाबाद
