India’s unwanted guest Mehta dictates new formulae for Nepal: Media

Telegraph Nepal

A nonentity in India’s political corridor but yet a chum of Nepali media, Ashok Mehta- who claims himself as a Nepal expert was mysteriously invited to deliver his versions on Nepal’s peace and constitutional processes at an interaction program held in Kathmandu, April 16, 2012.

Mehta basically is a retired general of the Indian army with fluency in Nepali speaking.

It seems like every Tom, Dick and Harry in New Delhi’s footpath qualify to become a Nepal expert, perplexed critics claim and add, could be India’s inborn talent inherited from the past colonial days.

For the Indian nationals, a platform remains readymade in Nepal.

Let us listen to his skill.

“At least two to three states is a must in the Tarai plains of Nepal,” he said to the much dismay of some Madhesi columnists who happen to still support the demand even as their leaders seem to have already forgotten the demand of ‘One Madhesh One Province’.

Mehta thus caps the possibility of One Madhesh demand.

Critics even claim that at first demand for ‘One Madhesh’ was designed by some declared Nepal haters seated in New Delhi with the sole objective of splitting Nepal that was carried loyally by some local Madhesi parties and their followers being unaware of India’s clandestine design.

Poor Nepali Madhesi population.

However, the India’s South Block buffoons might have later contemplated that any plot to divide Madhesh from Nepal would be counterproductive to India itself as it may trigger similar splits in the nearby Bihar and Uttar Pradesh States. China’s suddenly acquired aggressive posture in Nepali politics might also have forced India to ‘temporarily’ keep on hold the grand design.

So predicted Dr. Pushpa Adhikari while making a serious lecture in New Delhi recently. Read : India virtually ruined Nepal in our website.

“Had India continued to support one Madhesh agenda until disintegration of Madhesh, Chinese forces could have jumped to the Churia hills of Nepal instead of being on the other side of the Himalayas”, claim matured China experts on the condition of anonymity.

“Stability must also be taken into account in addition to identity while creating the states,” claimed Mahta and added, “None of the ethnic communities are in a majority in any region to create states based on ethnicity.”

Mehta also claimed that it was now NC’s turn to lead the government.

Muni went. Mehta came. Who is the next unwanted guest?

  • Why and how the mysterious talking is exposing from Indian groups and diplomats ? The present expression of Dr. Ashok Mehta is aslo suspicious. Yes , how his expression is appriciated but he is not the responsible man to discard such Indian agena-'Federalism, Secularism, Republic.' Now, in Nepal, the Maoists are using their agendas and are opening a 'Pandora's Box'- a one-party communist anarchism. The PM Baburam Bhattarai is one of the dangerious man than Girija- the first traitor. The Congress leader Girija, UML's Madhab nepal, Maoist leader Prachanda and Baburam including UNMIN's mistakes were the main cause of Nepalese crisis. The UNMIN listened only to the Maoist rebels and the corrupt leaders of the so-called big party. The reality of the grand design of Maoists has been exposed from Dr. Bhattarai. I am sorry to write that it was a great blunder of Indian diplomats- Shyam Saran- former Indian ambassador and former foreign Secretary of India (who is widely credited with bringing the present instability in Nepal), and Sive Shankar Mukharejee, former foreign minister, KB Rajan- former Indian ambassador,Rakesh Sood-present ambassador, Prof.SD Muni (RAW strategist) and other officials who not only blundered in their assessment of the Maoists but also did much harm to Indian's interests in Nepal. Among diplomats, Shyam Saran is a very ambitious diplomat who could not calculate the good result. Mr. Ashok Mehta should remember- soil as safe shelter and also received enough funds and underground trainings for its fighters for arms and explosives in the Indian camps. Through the 12-point agreement, India became a decisive factor to remove the institution of monarchy with the help of the Nepali Maoist, which was declared terrorists by India. India played a double game while dealing with terrorism. Then, why India is opposing the 'one Madesh one Pradesh' now? What were pitfalls of the Constitution of 1990? Why was it suspended without reason? What kind of new constitution would we require? Why has India supported the Constituent assembly? These are the causes of crisis in Nepal. The anti-Indian voice is increasing day-by-day. Nepalese democratic exercise faced a black period in between 2005-2010. The nation's future seems dark because they have walked as directed by unseen forces that beckon them without studying Nepal's geographical reality and sensitivity. For 240 years the Shah dynasty did not allow Nepal to disintegrate. Even in difficult situations, the dynasty preserved Nepal's national dignity. The dynasty that never bowed down to foreign influence bowed down to the people. But the Nepalese people still have not recognized the true value of the institution. The Nepalese monarchy has always showed goodwill towards India. Cordial people to people relationships between Nepal and India have existed since ancient times. We have to keep friendly relations with India due to our similar cultural and religious traditions. But, since 2005, the cordial situation is dissolving day by day between Nepal & India. I believe the permanent institution of 'Monarchy' can re-unite the cordial relationship between Nepal & India. So, on behalf of Nepalese nationalists, India and all the democratic forces, we demand to reinstate our beloved monarchy of the Nepalese in order to save the identity, unity and democracy of Nepal. Once re-instated, the king needs to form an inclusive cabinet under the leadership of neutral politicians to find different solutions. Thank you.

  • Why you feel shame to say that you have committed mistakes by abolishing monarchy in Nepal.This is your gear failure in the foreign policy.Your foreign policy is guided by the personal ego not by the national interest. Rajiv ego was hurt then he imposed embago on Nepal.Sonia ego hurt now you abolised monarchy.No surprise for the nationalist Nepali.you make thousand stories-makes no diffrence for us.Fact is you axed your feet by doing a blunder.Wise people accept the mistakes and learn from it by correcting.You can't because of your hallow ego which is making you day by day weak.Better readdress your mistakes in the foreign policy.Monarchy is never bad for India or China.If you have time ,read the history and compare with the present happenings.You will get answer.

  • Indian agenda has changed. For now they are happy with what they have that is "republic". Rest of the job can be done later when some madesi becomes the PM of Nepal some day.They don't want to loose their gains that's all. With out removing the Monarchy non of it would be possible. They will make sure that the Monarchy is never revived so that some traitors like Dahal can always be bought and sold at a price. They have invested in the media to promote their agenda. They are also funding Limbiwan tharus madeshis and Newars as well.
