Nepal former Panchas wish constitution in parts: Media

Telegraph Nepal

The former staunch royalist turned staunch republican leader, Chairman Pashupati Shumser Rana of Rastriya Prajatantra Party (RPP) has said that since the time remaining to draft the constitution was not sufficient, the leaders of major political parties should mull over the available alternative of drafting the constitution in instalments.

Half baked idea.

He stressed that under no circumstance could the parties be able to complete the constitution drafting task in the remaining time period.

He was addressing a program organized jointly by RPP and Rastriya Janshakti Party (RJP) in Bhaktapur, March 29, 2012.

Addressing the same program, India’s most trusted and tested ally, Chairman Surya Bahadur Thapa of the one-man RJP claimed the present political deadlock is threatening the very existence of the country.

He claimed that democratic forces should unite to save the country and to safeguard Nepali nationalism.

Notably, Thapa’s “nationalism” allowed the Indian Ambassadors to roam and loiter around the interior parts of Nepal without informing the Nepali foreign ministry in advance. The Indian envoys prefer to visit the Northern bordering areas for obvious reasons which Thapa understands. Eyeing on Tibet-the autonomous region of China?

Thapa is sometime taken as more subservient to the Indian establishment than declared pro-Indian leader Late Girija Prasad Koirala.

Thapa also suggested that the parties should focus on drafting constitution in instalments.

Both speaking His Masters Voice in “instalment” perhaps.

These two clowns are the misfits in Nepalese politics. They can't figure out what they want to believe in and where they belong. Perhaps it is time for the both of them to retire or even dissolve their parties. Let their party members decide if they want to join the NC or RPP-Nepal. I wonder why they don't do everyone a favor and stop the drama.I think they just miss being a part of the cabinet like during the Panchayat days; they just can't accept it after they betrayed the King and the country. They are in denial. There are five stages to denial, and they are still in the first stage.
