Major priorities in the doldrums
‹‹ Back
WM Correspondent
Despite repeated talks among major political parties to settle the ongoing political stalemate, there has been any positive result.
The festering deficit of trust is attributed to the prevalent political imbroglio, which is responsible for myriad of anomalies besetting the whole nation.
The parties are so indulged in fulfilling their respective myopic interests that they are increasingly shying way from coming together for the sake of urgent national priorities.
The non-Maoist parties harbor anxiety that the Maoists are plotting to capture the state power by mobilizing the People\'s Liberation Army (PLA).
It is this apprehension that has propelled the non-Maoist parties to gang up against the Maoists and clamour for the early integration and rehabilitation of the PLA.
On the other hand, the Maoist stalwarts are maintaining that it will be foolhardy to complete the integration process until the drafting of a new constitution is guaranteed.
The formal rebels are more inclined towards changing the current coalition in their favour.
Maoist supremo Puspa Kamal Dahal has time and again claimed that the scripting of a "people-oriented" stature is simply impossible if his party continues to remain outside the government.
As the political parties seem more obsessed with fulfilling their parochial interests, the timely draft of a new constitution and logical conclusion of the peace process is becoming elusive, to say the least.
