Best Possible Scenario: How It Could Unfold

3 Scenarios: Election, Revolution, Chaos

1. The eight parties agree to hold completely proportional elections to the constituent assembly. Every third name on a party's list must be female. Other than that there are no rules. Madhesi, Janajati and Dalit parties contest.
   1. Elections are held on November 22. The result is a hung constituent assembly. No party gets more than 15% of the votes cast. The majority coalition forms the government. The assembly takes three years to draw a new constitution for the country in which all decisions are taken by a two-third majority.
      1. The country is declared a republic on day one of the constituent assembly. Ram Raja Prasad Singh becomes the first president of Nepal.
      2. Within a year a map for federalism is agreed upon. Within six months of that elections are held for state governments in each of the new states. The states draw their state constitutions and demarcate their village/town constituencies. Local elections are held within a year of the state elections.
      3. Within six months of the assembly formation a formula is agreed upon for the final shape of the Nepal Army. 30,000 strong. 30% Madhesi, 30% Janajati, 30% Bahun, Chhetri, Thakuri, 10% Dalit. Half women in each category. Those from the Nepal Army and the Maoist Army that do not get absorbed are absorbed into the private sector of the economy. Some are sent to school, college, vocational training, some are given small loans to start small businesses, some are sent for foreign employment. Soldiers from the armed Madhesi groups are also allowed to compete for the 30,000 slots as are the common people.
      4. The state is restructured. The number of federal employees goes down from 100,000 to 25,000. Of the 25,000 also, many lose jobs to make room for DaMaJaMa participation. Those losing jobs are absorbed into the private sector with government help. They are compensated so they can perhaps start small businesses.
      5. Each state forms its own bureaucracy and police force. The recruitment formula has to be passed by the state parliament and the competition for the state jobs have to be transparent.
      6. At the end of the three year period, there are a total of 100,000 bureaucrats, 40,000 police, and 30,000 soldiers on state payroll at all levels of government put together.
      7. The country is declared a federal republic of state funded parties at the end of the three year period. The Maoists announce no more revolutions are necessary.
      8. Parliamentary elections are held at the end of the three year period. It is again a hung parliament. No party gets more than 15% of the votes.
      9. The president is directly elected. A second round is held between the top two candidates because no candidate was able to get a majority.
2. The eight parties continue with their roadmap of disrespect for the Madhesi Kranti, no respectful talks with the MJF or the two JTMMs, and mixed election whereby they are not capable of drawing down the 240 constituencies in a fair manner, their formula for 240 seats through proportional election goes haywire because the Congressi Poudel makes promises on behalf of eight parties to various groups and that angers the other parties.
   1. The Maoists break away from the government. They start with street protests.
   2. Koirala does not budge. Elections are announced. A month later Koirala announces elections are postponed. They will be held in April based on the same mixed formula but with a better law and order situation, and better weather conditions.
   3. The Maoist protests turn into a full fledged movement.
   4. The MJF launches its own full fledged movement.
   5. The armed Madhesi groups get excited.
   6. The Koirala government collapses because his announced elections turn out to be a farce like the king's municipal elections.
   7. A new interim parliament is formed that has 300 total members. 30% Madhesi, 30% Janajati, 30% Bahun, Chhetri, Thakuri, 10% Dalit. Half women in each category. A new interim government is formed. The country is declared a federal republic immediately. Interim governments are formed in the eight interim states.
   8. Elections to the constituent assembly are announced to be held in April 2008.
3. The situation goes out of hand. There is full fledged civil war.

"The government is not only sidelining the MPRF but the Madhesi movement as a whole. It doesn't want to implement the agreements of the talks as well," he said adding, "We've arrived at the conclusion that now that it would be a waste of time to sit for talks with the government." "They are trying to use the talks team as a tool of distraction" ..... Ram Chandra Poudel informed that earlier agreements, including a 20-point agreement, reached after the first round of talks between the two sides held in Janakpur last month, couldn't be implemented. ...... "The government isn't trying to address our demands including the proportionate electoral system prior to the CA polls, " he said adding, "Now, we have to launch a nationwide movement in the same old manner."
Maoists cite 22 pre-requisites for polls, gear up for nationwide protests The CPN-Maoist on Monday announced that it will launch indefinite nationwide protest programmes if what it calls “22 pre-requisites for the Constituent Assembly elections” are not met immediately. .... a “new people’s movement from the government, parliament and the street” ...... the immediate declaration of a republic through the interim parliament is one of the pre-conditions for the elections as “royalist forces are conspiring to thwart the elections by instigating violence in Terai.” ....... insisted that the Nepali Congress and other parties clarify their positions on the monarchy before the polls. ..... Removal of all army men stationed inside the royal palace, basic security for the king and his family, the nationalization of the property of late King Birendra and his family and the property of King Gyanendra inherited by virtue of being the monarch ........ Democratization of the Nepali Army by immediately constituting a security council and the start of a process to merge the Maoist People’s Liberation Army into the national army, a high-level commission on the “disappeared”, and a broader round table conference to address the demands of all disgruntled groups ....... The operation of the coalition government on the basis of political consensus, proper attention to the cantoned Maoist combatants, release of their monthly allowances of Rs 3, 000, immediate formation of the local bodies and appointments of ambassadors, office bearers at universities, the National Human Rights Commission, the Commission for the Investigation of Abuse of Authority on the basis of a political consensus ..... immediate action against the perpetrators of the Gaur massacre and compensation to the families, immediate release of all Maoist leaders and cadres detained in Nepal and India, and withdrawal of all cases against the Maoist rank and file, immediate relief of Rs 100,000 to the families of the “martyrs of the people’s war” and free medical treatment to the injured ones. ........ a scientific land reform programme, a high-level land reform commission, a strong anti-corruption drive and a commission to restructure the state to ensure ethnic and regional autonomy with a right to self determination

INTERVIEW WITH PRACHANDA Transforming a country by addressing the class, caste, regional and gender issues in the transitional phase in a peaceful manner and being a part of the government to hold a Constituent Assembly election are rare experiments in communist movements. ...... analyzing all the revolutions and counter-revolutions of the 20th Century ..... the language that is used while in the White Area ..... Kathmandu still does not belong to the people. ....... At that point, the revolution could again turn violent. ...... a final battle can take place. ..... Some media houses that believe in reactionary violence are engaged in this propaganda. ...... when we joined the government, we were told that it would be run on consensus, which is not happening. If it continues this way, the relevance of us staying in the government will be over. ......... we have serious doubts about the polls taking place on November 22 ..... all the groups, including those in Madhes, which are creating troubles, must be controlled. ...... Since the Gaur carnage, our more than 50 cadres have been killed. ....... thousands of our fighters sacrificed their lives for the CA polls. ...... We have already formed a high-level committee to write an election manifesto. We will soon announce our first list of the candidates in the preliminary level. ....... As far as the proportional electoral system is concerned, this is what we have always believed in. ...... we have not said that we will shy away from the elections if the country does not adopt the proportional electoral system ..... a republican set up is a must .... we will not shy away from the elections if that does not happen. ....... there is a contradiction in the way the political developments are taking place and the way the Nepali Congress is working. ...... We doubt that Koirala is going to have a huge regressive and bourgeois change. ..... There won’t be the Koirala government if elections don’t take place. Not only will Koirala’s government go, the country will face a huge disaster. ...... The country will be caught in a complex civil war if the CA polls are not held in proper manner. ...... I doubt that the coalition will remain intact if the elections do not take place. Either the eight parties will again launch a fresh movement or some of the parties will join hands with the reactionary forces and some will reach out to the people. ....... The PLA cannot be used in course of the people’s movement. But, anything can happen ...... The PLA may not remain inside the ‘cantonments’. It will come out. .... The agreement was for nearly one year. If the election does not take place within that period then the UN’s role would come to an end. There will be no need of the UN to stay here. ....... The problem in Terai is of a serious nature. ... America has tried to marginalise the Maoists in Madhes. ........ influence of the parliamentary parties was almost non-existent in Terai. ....... the dacoits, murderers and criminals, who were chased away by our activists, have also organized themselves. Therefore, the Madhes problem is multidimensional. ............. We discussed about a tunnel war with India. I had prepared a document after studying the tunnel warfare of the Vietnam War. ....... There is a very deep-rooted relationship between Delhi and the Nepali Congress. Is that a secret? .......... That (12-point understanding) took place with the Indian government’s consent. ..... India did play a role to marginalize our party’s influence in Terai; it wasn’t good.
Cabinet meeting today differences regarding joint election campaign ...... the major issues that are being discussed are: organizing joint election campaigns and making a clear stance by all parties on a republican set up, among others. ...... the CPN-M had said that it would not express a common commitment to polls unless the Nepali Congress came up with a clear stance on monarchy.

Prachandapath, Gyanendrapath Nepali Times The behaviour of the king’s soldiers and the YCL was identical. The same arrogance and rudeness and disregard for the hardships of ordinary people.
Polls or bust Nepal has been unitary for nearly two-and-half centuries and a smooth switchover to a federal structure will need some ingenuity. ..... There are regional, ethnic, linguistic and cultural aspirations. In their obsession with the past, none of the mainstream parties seem to be aware of the challenges ahead. ..... The eastern tarai was the scene of this winter’s madhes uprising and it is where a majority of janajati own very little land and most dalits are landless. ..... the most unequal country in Asia. ..... a third of all Nepalis somehow survive on less than a dollar a day ..... nobody in power seems to be terribly enthusiastic about going to the polls ...... improving rural access to health, education, and social protection. More investment in rural infrastructure ...... Rajiv Gandhi famously remarked that only 15 percent of government money intended for India's poor ever reached them. Most of it leaks out in bureaucratic incompetence or corruption
Fleeing the flood Eighty percent of the farms in Dhanusha and Mahottari have been washed off. Some farmers want to salvage this year’s monsoon season and replant rice, but there is a scarcity of seedlings. ....... Armed groups in the tarai continued to threaten government staff, and civil servants use that as the excuse not to do anything. ..... “Riverbeds are rising every year and in many places they have risen higher than the farms on either side,” says Dhanusa CDO Ram Sharan Chimoriya.
After the deluge “We have got only one kilo of chiura and four packets of noodles to eat,” says Sita Debi, a mother of four, sitting on a wooden bed with four goats underneath. ...“We treat the goats like family,” she adds, “they are our only source of income. We have some rice in the storeroom at home but that is all rotted by now we’ll just have to turn it into fertiliser.” ..... their landlords are willing to loan them money at 36 percent interest. .... the real misery begins when the waters recede, when the floods are not in the headlines anymore
Mainly in the plains As far as Kathmandu is concerned, Nepal’s madhesis look like Indians, talk like Indians, behave like Indians, are pro-Indian. And some would even go so far as to say they are Indian. What they don’t know is that there is actually resentment in the tarai against the Indian government. The madhes’s relationship with India is complex and multi-layered. ..... across the border in India there may be general sympathy for the madhesi cause, but this has not translated into active support. ..... Madhesis feel that New Delhi has never supported them in their struggle for rights ..... New Delhi has taken them for granted, and always used them as a bargaining chip with pahadi rulers in Kathmandu. ........ From Delhi to Patna to border towns, politicians and bureaucrats were thrilled to see an erosion in the Maoist influence in the tarai when the movement began. ...... In Patna and Lucknow, awareness of the madhesi issue is limited. ...... the fractured nature of madhes politics doesn’t help. ..... Indian diplomats are telling the madhesi groups that if they want support, they must forge a common understanding, and make the most of the constituent assembly elections.

India’s thali democracy poised after years of rapid economic growth to take its place as one of the giants of the twenty-first century. ...... No other country embraces such an extraordinary profusion of ethnic groups, mutually incomprehensible languages, religions, and cultural practices, as well as variations of topography, climate, and levels of economic development. ..... India has a remained a freewheeling multi-party democracy, corrupt and inefficient, perhaps, but nonetheless flourishing. ..... the simple principle that you don’t need to agree all the time, except on the ground rules about how you can disagree. ...... If America is a melting-pot, then India is a thali. Each tastes different, and does not necessarily mix with the next, but all belong on the same plate. ..... Mayawati, a dalit woman, has ruled India’s most populous state, Uttar Pradesh, as chief minister three times, and now enjoys a secure majority.
A king who could do no wrong a good student “always affable, polite and attentive, deferential toward his parents, wore jeans like other students at Harvard at the time, and retained his remarkable modesty even after he returned to Nepal and became officially...both an emperor and a god, albeit of a benign and approachable sort ........ such as his view on the appropriate solution of the Kashmir problem.

माअोवादी पार्टीले अाफ्नो प्रस्तािवत संघीय सरकारको नक्शा फेरेर नौबाट ११ पुर्याएको छ। नक्शा अाफैमागलत छैन। अरुहरू पार्टीहरूले पिन यसै गरी अा-अाफनो नक्शा जनता सामु ल्याए हुँदो हो। अन्ितम िनर्णयगर्ने त जनताले हो। संघीय नक्शा जातीय होइन, भौगोिलक हुनुपर्छ भन्ने पार्टी र नेताहरू पिन छन्। त्योभनाइ गलत होइन। तर त्यस्तो सोंच्नेले त्यसै अनुसारको नक्शा चुनाव अगािड नै कोरेर जनताकोमालानुपर्यो। अन्ितम िनर्णय गर्ने अिधकार त जनताको हो।

११ मध्ये पाँच राज्य तराईमा र छ राज्य पहाडमा राखे जस्तो देिखन्छ।

पुर्ण रूपले समानुपाितक िनर्वाचन हुने संिवधान सभाको चुनावमा एक मधेश, एक प्रदेशको नाराकासाथ जानेपार्टीहरू छन्। तराईमा पाँच राज्य चाहने माअोवादीलाई जनताले पत्याउने िक एक राज्य चाहने मधेशीजनािधकार फोरमलाई जनताले पत्याउने भन्ने कुरा अिहले थाहा हुँदैन।

तर नक्शा कोरेर मात्र हुँदैन। नक्शा चािहं कोर्ने तर सबै शक्ित केन्द्रमा राख्ने भयो भने त्यो संघीयनक्शाको खासै केही अर्थ रहँदैन। भन्नलाई त चीनले पिन स्वशािसत क्षेत्र ितब्बत भन्िदयाछ। तर त्योितब्बत बेइिजङको गुलाम भएर बस्नु परेको अवस्था छ।

११ राज्यवाला माअोवादीको नक्शा खराब त छैन। िलमबुअान राज्य बडो चालाकीपुर्ण िकिसमले थपेको छ। त्यो क्षेत्रमा स्थानीय स्तरमा त्यस्तो माग देखेर। तर ती ११ राज्यहरूमा खासै शक्ित नरहने देिखन्छ। ती ११राज्यको प्रत्येकको अाफ्नै िवधायीका, कार्यपािलका, र न्यायपािलका रहने िक नरहने? केन्द्रसँग कित रराज्यहरूसँग कित ताकत रहने? यी प्रश्नहरूको जवाफ माअोवादी नेतृत्वले लुकाएको छ।

मधेशी अिधकारको सवालमा भने महेन्द्र पथ र प्रचण्ड पथमा कुनै िभन्नता देिखंदैन। महेन्द्र र वीरेन्द्रलेमधेशलाई उपिनवेश बनाएका िथए। मधेशी जनतामािथ पहाडी सीडीअो र अञ्चलाधीशहरूको शासन लािदएकोिथयो। प्रचण्डको सोंचाइ त्यसभन्दा केही पिन फरक छैन। मधेश राज्य सिमितको अध्यक्ष पदमा बोगटी, भोजपुरको अध्यक्ष पदमा कँडेल, अवधको अध्यक्ष पदमा पौडेल, कोिचलाको अध्यक्ष पदमा गजुरेल।

प्रचंड माअोवादी होइन, बाहुनवादी हो। थारूवानको अध्यक्ष पदमा बस्नेत, मगरातको अध्यक्ष पदमा अोली, तामाङ राज्यको अध्यक्ष पदमा सापकोटा, िलम्बुअानको अध्यक्ष पदमा कार्की। यो के नौटंकी हो?

मधेशी क्रान्ितको अपमान गर्नेमा सबैभन्दा अगािड रहेका प्रचण्डबाट मधेशी जनताले कुनै अाशा नराखे हुन्छ।


माधव नेपाल, प्रचण्ड र देउवा िमलेर प्रधान मन्त्री फेर्नु पर्ने छ

पु्रण समानुपाितक िनर्वाचन एमालेको त एजेण्डा नै हो। माअोवादीले अब त्यही धार अपनाएको छ। देउवा काँग्रेससँग पार्टी एकीकरण गर्ने कुनै इच्छा नै िथएन िगिरजाको, त्यो एकीकरणको ढोंग देउवाले संगठन िवस्तार नगरोस् भन्नकालािग गिरएको िथयो भन्ने कुरा अब छरलङ भएको छ। पु्रण समानुपाितक िनर्वाचनमा नजाने हो भने देउवा काँग्रेस िबलाउँछ। साना पार्टीहरूकालािग पु्रण समानुपाितक िनर्वाचन नै राम्रो।

एमाले, माअोवादी र देउवा काँग्रेस िमलेर सरकारको नेतृत्व फेर्नु जरूरी भएको छ। माधव नेपाललाई चुनावसम्मकालािग प्रधान मन्त्री बनाउने र पु्रण समानुपाितक िनर्वाचनको अाधारमा नभम्बरमा चुनाव गराउने।

चुनावपिछ नया समीकरण

चुनावपिछ बहुमत पाउने समीकरणले सरकार बनाउने हो। संिवधान सभािभत्र दुई ितहाइको अाधारमा संिवधान बन्छ तर देश चलाउन बहुमतको सरकार बन्छ। त्यित बेला कोइराला काँग्रेस, देउवा काँग्रेस, सद्भावना, फोरम, राप्रपा अािद एउटै खेमामा पिन देिखन सक्छन्। त्यो अिहले नै भन्न सिकने कुरा होइन। एमालेको नेतृत्व कायम रहन पिन सक्छ, नरहन पिन सक्छ। अाठ पार्टी बाहेकका मधेशी, जनजाित र दिलत पार्टीहरूको पिन सरकार बन्न सक्छ।
