NEPAL :TRAPPED IN DOUBLE-STANDARDS OF MAOISTS
ARVIND K.PANDEY
The alliance including the Maoists has led to further destabilization and fragmentation in Nepal . Ironically , it does not enjoy the support of Nepalese people , which it claims to possess time and again . It's an open secret that Nepalese people don't have any faith in this alliance , resting on conflicting interests . There are reports which indicate that the Maoists are engaged in extortion of money from the hapless citizens . One fails to understand how can dismantling of the old beliefs and cultural patterns can take place in the name of creation of new way of governance ? However , this is what the Maoists have been doing since past few years . Lastly , I don't agree with the Time's observation that India is inclined towards Nepal simply because of its political interests the China way . Unlike China , India enjoys a centuries-old cultural and social bondings with Nepal , which make it imperative for India to keep an eye on the happenings in Nepal .
