How Nepal Leader was dishonored in New Delhi?

TGW

Jhal Nath Khanal, the elected member of the Constituent Assembly and the Chairman of the United Marxist Leninists Party, who is admired by his cadres for his leadership skills and holds respect even from his political detractors here in Nepal had to wait more than a week time in New Delhi to seek the needed blessings from the Pakistan born Indian Prime Minister Dr. Manmohan Singh.

What a disgraceful incident for the entire Nepali population?

The New Delhi regime that could manage immediate meetings of Surya Bahadur Thapa and Sher Bahdur Deuba, whose position in Nepali politics is less significant compared to Mr. Khanal, with the Indian Prime Minister failed to arrange the meeting of Mr. Khanal and the Indian Prime Minister.

Did India penalize Mr. Khanal for his China bend and for his close ties with the Unified Maoists Party? Perhaps, Yes!

Finally, the Indian Ambassador to Nepal, Rakesh Sood flew to New Delhi to arrange the meeting in a haste.

 “Khanal even thought that he should not have come to New Delhi”, one of the Daily Newspapers here in Nepal reports.

“He was invited by the Indian Foreign Ministry and put in the Maurya Sheraton Hotel for seven days, yet, he was not allowed to meet the Indian Prime Minister”, writes Kantipur Daily.

In fact, a highly humiliated and frustrated Mr. Khanal had already left for the Indira Gandhi International Airport on Monday, November 9, 2009.

While Khanal was on his way to the Airport, he received a call from Rakesh Sood, who claimed that he had managed his meeting with the Indian Prime Minister and thus Khanal returned back to the hotel.

“Look they invited him, just to humiliate him”, Kantipur quotes one of the expatriate UML leaders in New Delhi as saying.

“One cannot believe these Indians”, the UML leader adds.

A dishonored Khanal finally met the Indian Prime Minister on November 10, 2009 after extending his weeklong trip by two days more.

“Do you have favorable atmosphere to draft the constitution and bring logical end to the peace process”, questioned the Indian PM.

“India will only support us, we have to take our own initiatives”, said Khanal talking to Kantipur after holding the meeting with the proxy-Indian PM.

Highly deserving! ot only to khanal, but to the entire socalled republican gangsters, who have put two Indian acolytes on the highest post throwing away the king , their oawn blood. India know very well such swines of Nepali politics and acts accordingly. Instead of lamenting , they should correct their wrongdoings for getting respect .

What a man? No heist, no shame, no self confidence? And after all why has he wanted to meet Indian prime minister? He is a Nepali politician and he has his own party in Nepal? Kya karne wala hai next? "Bir Gorkhali ka Bhatuwa santan" you deserve that betrayal. You get what you wanted then why complain?

Dear leaders:Namaste!!! Let's give up the idea of going to India for any political issues. We are always belittled by the subversive attitude of Indian politicians. Let’s build and develop our beloved country Nepal by working harder day and night. Let's utilise the potentials we have. Let's not quarrel. Let's not blame each other. Let's finish this ego of political branding. Let's think of possibility. It is better to lead a nation with a vision. If a leader has vision our country will be more prosperous and well developed. While we are abroad everybody talks about natural beauty of our country. Why not to organize the income recourses. Let's be not politically biased. Let’s be out of political party and serve the nation. Let's urge ourselves to be the front of all good deeds.Best regardsAustralia
