A life long process -- Constitution of Nepal

It is not the first article to represent the heading, Several such headed articles are published on different blogs and it can't be new to the readers too. Mikasha's Station today also strongly addressing this heading as an article over this blog for the recent event on Nepal's Government. Recently, despite the opposition of own Party's decision, current Prime Minister, Jhal Nath Khanal in the presence of President Dr. Rambaran Yadav organized Oath ceremony.

Constitutional Assembly, Nepal

Last time the tenure of Constitutional Assembly was extended by 3 months on the mutual understanding  between Nepali Congress (Opposition), UCPN (Maosit) and Government of Nepal. The then 5-points agreement signed by the primeminister too had strongly addressed the resignation of him for the formation of National Consensus Government. But against the norm of the agreement, despite searching the possible ways of national consensus, Nepal Government stepped the annoying step against the mandate given by the Opposition which had also given confirmation on 14th Jestha, for the increment of tenure of Constitutional Assembly. 

Now, Nepali Congress is with its strong protesting activities starting from House. The meetings of House has been postponed regularly on the co-ordination of major opposition party with the only demand of fulfillment of 5-points agreement by the resignation of Prime Minister. Addition of 10 more ministers collectively from Maosit (9) and Forum (1) is symbolizing the non-directional steps taken by Government. 

In this situation, the government should have done lots of constructive works on Peace and Constitution to lure the party of opposition but it did the construction of its own cabinet. The activities going on seems that the government at the eleventh hour is endeavoring to provide the taste of Ministry to all the remaining leaders. Bi-treaty between only two parties of government doesn't provide any meaning to National Consensus but it adds suspicious feelings over the parties on opposition. It hinders the path of co-operation, national consensus and ultimately the mandate of Peoples' Movement - II will be shadowed. 

Probably, this date is less than a month far from the newly created deadline of constitutional assembly. No points of agreement are accepted in practice. So, the upcoming deadline can kill Constitutional assembly because in the lack of performance of 5-points agreement, to bring opposition in agreement for the next time will be a hard nut to crack. 

In the meantime, there must be a progress in Peace and Constitutional process. Then only the last increment will get true taste and paves the path for next increment and accomplishment of constitutional making process. This time we have constructed many parties in assembly, many cabinets in executives but failed to add a single brick on peace process.

After increasing the tenure for several times, no national consensus government formed as they were proclaimed earlier. The wrong image is being traced on every citizens that "Constitution is a life long Process".
