No support from India to Nepal would be the best support: Analysts

Telegraph Nepal

Nepal’s southern neighbor India has once again made commitment to extend support to Nepal in all its capacities for sustainable peace, stability and prosperity.

Indian support is always dangerous.

Indian Prime Minister Manmohan Singh made this hair raising comment when he met Nepal’s India groomed and elevated Prime Minister Baburam on the sidelines of United Nations Rio+20 Conference on Sustainable Development in Rio de Janerio, Brazil.

Baburam also thanked PM Singh for India’s constructive support to Nepal for peace and stability.

But which constructive support? It should be “damaging” support instead.

He also requested for India’s further support in Nepal’s economic sector.

Inviting the trouble maker officially.

A press statement issued by Nepal’s embassy in Brazil, as reports have it claim that, Dr. Singh had all praise to Nepali political leadership for successfully accomplishing the peace process. Is it a joke!

But which peace Dr. Singh is talking about?

“India is ready to extend support to Nepal to the possible extent,” Dr. Singh is quoted as saying.

Critics in Nepal however claim that since India has already extended support in all its capacities yet with dismal end result, it is advisable thus for India not to extend further support to Nepal.  That would, analysts hope, would be the best support from India. Have mercy on Nepal please.

Interestingly, claim analysts the only objective of Nepal’s Prime Minister Baburam who has now become an expert of ‘merging & submerging theory’ to attend the Rio+20 Summit was to meet the Indian Prime Minister Manmohan and the Norwegian Prime Minister Jens Stoltenberg.

Norway, by the way, is also very close to Prachanda and Babu Ram from the people’s war period.

Eric Solheim, the previous development minister of Norway had established personal friendship with Dr. Bhattarai and Dahal while these Nepal Maoist veterans were in New Delhi.  

What he would have talked to both the PMs that did not appear in media is yet anybody’s guess.

How the previous Indian supports to Nepal have yielded results here does tell that Nepal now should not ask for any Indian support.

  • India and Nepal have such a long history of shared culture, religion and values. It is surprising that certain section of Nepalese (like fhis reporter) harbor such ill will to the whole Indian nation?! It's fine to criticize Manmohan or his government, I am not a big fan either, but to blame India as a whole is somewhat confusing to an Indian citizen like me. There are so many Nepalese studying and working in India, such a tone can have a disastrous consequences to the lovely people from Nepal in India. Nepal is going through a rough patch in her glorious history, the problem is not India. She did not have the opportunity to build on democratic institutions. Now, that she has become a republic, it will take time for politicians and institutions to stabilize around this new reality. Free press is one such institution that is vital to sustain democracy. Request that you do not simplify problems by blaming India for all that is wrong in your country.

  • Existence of Nepal was primarily for the benefit of KTM ie so called rulers of nepal.British India had no intrest in nepal because it had no trade interest. similarly same thing is applicable for today's India.Yes Nepal's geographical location has 'Meaning' for both India and China. To the bad luck of nepalese its leaders are aimless except "PERSONAL" gains."Bhukha/Nanga" people have no other intention in life!

  • Response to Confused! Nepalese are not betrayed with the relationship between Indian citizens but the main cause of harboring such issues always due to bureaucrats and government policies in India against Nepal. There are so many examples we can forward but very fresh one is enough to prove it as today Korean times published a report about Nepal that as an ambassador of India for Korea claimed that Mt. Everest lies between India and China which is direct attack on Nepalese sovereignty. If that means where does Nepal lie? All over the world and even general public in India are aware from century that Mt. Everest lies in Nepal but how come that disgusting and stupid illiterate man became ambassador of India for Korea. Now u can judge why Nepalese people have so much hatted India day by day.
