Rather than focusing on resolving matters of disputes,
Nepal’s major political parties have been blaming each other for the ‘sad and
untimely’ demise of Constituent Assembly yet, India’s ambassador to Nepal Sri
Jayant Prasad Srivastav is still trying his best to bring Nepal’s proven
inefficient and inept leaders together once again. Poor Prasad has his work cut
out. He must do his job because he is answerable.
Prasad is visiting each and every leader and urging
them to resolve their disputes at the earliest. Guess whose Bungalow he may
have liked?
In the past two weeks, Prasad has already met with
Pushpa Kamal of Unified Maoists and Sushil of Nepali Congress. On Thursday July
19, 2012, Prasad met with sluggish Ram Chandra Poudel of Nepali Congress who
had just returned from hospital after treatment of some ailments.
In between he might have visited home, Delhi, once.
Prasad deserves a promotion before his retirement for
his benevolent service extended for free to the neighbor, critics seriously
recommend.
Critics also take the privilege to suggest Prasad to
urge Nepali leaders to revisit New Delhi’s November 22, 2005 ‘12 Point deal’ or
at best compel them to sign another agreement of similar sort. Use coercive
diplomacy in which Indian diplomats are taken as experts.
It is believed that to penalize the unyielding Nepal’s
monarch Gyanendra Shah, India had forced Nepali leaders to sign the deal that
eventually did away with the only Hindu monarchy. The single point agenda that
it was then.
India has already paid a heavy price for the failed
experiment it carried out in Nepal, opine critics.
It has also been reported that Prasad had also met with
the former King recently. What transpired between the two is any body’s guess.
Nevertheless, in his meeting with Ram Chandra, Prasad
made it clear that there was no option than having consensus between political
parties and urged Nepali Congress to forward its clear solution to resolve the
present deadlock.
What is the harm in that Prasad himself prepares the
solution and thus the NC leaders as is their habit will read it out clearly?
But the solution must not exceed more than 12 points, analysts opine.
The meeting only lasted for half an hour. Perhaps Ram
Chandra was too boring for Prasad. What about meeting Mohan Baidya upon his
return from China? Ambassador Prasad must have been waiting eagerly.
