पहाडी पार्टी काँग्रेसने मधेशीयो के साथ बेइमानी करनेका िनर्णय कर िलया है




नेपाली काँग्रेसने बहुत प्रयास िकया देशमें संिवधान सभाका िनर्वाचन होबहुत प्रयास िकया देशमें िकसी िकसी रूपमें राजतन्त्र कायम रहेबहुत प्रयास िकया देशमें एकात्मक व्यवस्था कायम ही रहेनहीं तोसद्भावना तो २०४६ से ही संिवधान सभाकी माग करती अाइ हैसंघीय सरकारकी माग करती अाइ है

अप्िरल क्रान्ितके बाद भी नेपाली काँग्रेस संघीय सरकारके अवधारणा के तरफ मुखिरत नहीं हुइतब जा केहम मधेशीयोको मधेशी क्रान्ित करनी पडीउस क्रान्ितका प्रत्येक संभव िकिसमसे अपमान िकया गयाकिपलवस्तु दङगाके पहाडीयो को तुरन्त दो करोड अनुदान रकम घोषणा कर िदया गयामधेशी क्रान्ितकेघायलोको बारम्बारके सहमितके बाद वैसी कोइ राहत नहीं िद गइ अभी तक

िशकारी अाएगा, जाल िबछाएगा, तुम चुङ्ना मतिशकारी अाएगा, जाल िबछाएगा, तुम चुङ्ना मत

िशकारी अा गया। िशकारीका नाम नेपाली काँग्रस है। जाल भी िबछा गया। जालका नाम है काँग्रेसका घोषणापत्र। अब मधेशी पार्टी एवं नेताअोका काम है िक मधेशी जनताको जगावें तािक वो चुङ्गे नहीं।

नेपाली काँग्रेसने मधेशी जनताके कंधे पर बन्दुक रखके प्रत्येक बार क्रान्ित िकया। नेपाली काँग्रेसने मधेशी जनताके भोट के बल पर प्रत्येक बार शासन िकया। लेिकन नेपाली काँग्ेसने प्रत्येक बार मधेशी जनताका गला काटा है, अपमान िकया है। मधेशी जनताको दबाया है।

उपरसे तो सब अच्छा लगता है। तुम्हे गणतन्त्र चािहए तो ले लो गणतन्त्र। संघीय सरकार चािहए तो ले लो संघीय सरकार। लेिकन ढक्कन उठाके तो देिखए।

नेपाली काँग्रेस संिवधान सभाके मार्फत संघीय गणतन्त्रके तरफ उन्मुख इसिलए है िक उसके पास अब कोइ दुसरा उपाय बाँकी नहीं रह गया है। मरता क्या न करतावाली बात है। उस एजेण्डाको उसनें नेतृत्व नहीं िदया बल्िक उसको िजस तरह मट्ठर बयलको घसीटके लाया जाता है उस तरह लाया गया है। एजेण्डा पर अा तो गया लेिकन उसका बेइमानी बरकरार है।

संघीय राज्य बोल तो िदया है लेिकन एक मधेश एक प्रदेशके नारा पर नहीं गया है। कह िदया है दो सदन रहेंगे केन्द्र में। उपल्लो सदनमें प्रत्येक राज्यका बराबरका िहस्सेदारी रहेगा। याने िक उपल्लो सदनमें पुरे मधेशके िजतने प्रितिनिध रहेंगे, महाकाली, सेती, भेरी, कर्णाली अगडम बगडम के पहाडी िजल्लाअोंको िमलाके जो खसान राज्य बनाएंगे खस लोगोंका उस खसान राज्यके भी उतने ही प्रितिनिध रहेंगे।

उस एक प्रावधानमें इतना दम है िक उसके बल पर पहाडी लोग अपना वर्चस्व सदा के िलए कायम रख सकेंगे।

लोकतन्त्र तो एक व्यक्ित एक मतका िसद्धान्त है। उस िसद्धान्त पर तो कोइ compromise तो करनी ही नहीं है। मधेशी अान्दोलनको चािहए िक इस िकस्मका proposal सामने लाए। उपल्लो सदनके िलए पुर्ण समानुपाितक िनर्वाचन हो, १०० सीटोके िलए। जो पार्टी १% मत लाएगी उसको १ सीट िमलेगी।

अौर नेपालमें राष्ट्रपितका प्रत्यक्ष िनर्वाचन होना जरुरी है। राज्यके तीन अंग अलग अलग रहेंगे। संसद कानुन बनाएगी। न्यायपािलका अपने जगह पर है। कार्यपािलका अलग हो। िवधाियका अौर कार्यपािलकाका जो िखंचडी अभी तक बनता अाया है वो गलत है।

एक मधेश एक प्रदेश का नारा अौेर एक व्यक्ित एक मतके िसद्धान्तके बल पर काँग्रेसको तराई से िबल्कुल सफाया ही िकया जाए, लालुने िबहारसे िजस तरह काँग्रेसका सफाया िकया उस तरह।
