Broken Estate

The move has plunged Nepal into a political crisis. Lawmakers have rushed to the Supreme Court, claiming the move is unconstitutional, considering there was scope for Pushpa Kamal Dahal Prachanda to take over from Oli. Seven ministers close to Prachanda have resigned from the cabinet. So has Madhav Nepal, a former prime minister. The Communist Party of Nepal, which got a two-third majority in the House of Representatives (the lower house) is likely to break up, with Oli and Dahal heading different factions. Considering the squabbling among Communist leaders, it was ine­vitable that the government would implode. Though Communists do quarrel over ideological differences, it seems that personal ambitions have more to do with the current crisis. 바카라 웹사이트

Nepal라이브 바카라 two neighbours, India and China, are closely observing developments. Earlier, China라이브 바카라 dynamic envoy Hou Yanqi had helped defuse a similar crisis and got the two factions to mend fences, thus saving Oli라이브 바카라 government. China has been very active in Nepal since the last few years, as India-Nepal ties plummeted since the 2015 Madhesi agitation against the new rep­ublican constitution.

This summer, India and Nepal had major differences over the Kalapani territory in Uttarakhand, with Kathmandu issuing a new map which showed바카라 웹사이트 Kalapani-Lipulekh-Limpiyadhura areas within Nepal. Much of this was Oli라이브 바카라 way of tiding over a political crisis, when asked by Dahal and his supporters to step down.

After managing to cling on to power, Oli decided to bury the hatchet with India. It began with a phone call to PM Modi on India라이브 바카라 Ind­e­p­endence Day. Sending out Vijaya Das­h­ami greetings to people in Nepal, Oli rev­erted to the old map. New Delhi was quick to reciprocate, worried as it was about China라이브 바카라 growing influence in Nepal.

Since then, several high-ranking Indians have visited Nepal. The first was that of RAW chief바카라 웹사이트 Samant Kumar Goel in mid-October. He paid Oli a courtesy call. What raised eyebrows in Kath­ma­ndu was that the meeting was without the presence of senior ministers.바카라 웹사이트 Goel was followed by army chief Gen. M.M. Naravane. Next to visit Kath­ma­ndu was foreign secretary Harsh Shringla.

India has not responded to developments in Nepal. Analyst S.D. Muni, who tracks Nepal라이브 바카라 politics, believes India is very much in the loop on the developments. “Prime Minister Oli has been struggling to survive, and this is his바카라 웹사이트바카라 웹사이트 res­ponse to the latest move to remove him,” Muni says. “Oli will now join hands with the King라이브 바카라 loyalists and fight the elections. The move to restore monarchy and thereby the old Hindu kingdom would be supported and encouraged by the RSS in India,’’ he adds. 바카라 웹사이트

Indeed, pro-monarchy and anti-rep­ublican rallies have taken place in several places this month. Taking advantage of the infighting within the government, those loyal to the King Gyanendra have called for restoration of the monarchy. Whether the maj­ority of Nepalis would support such a call is not known, but the King will certainly fish in troubled waters.

Most Nepalis also do not accept the arg­ument that India라이브 바카라 instigation is beh­ind the crisis. Analyst바카라 웹사이트 Kanak Mani Dixit says: “No one knows what the deep state does, but I do not바카라 웹사이트 believe that the current crisis has been instigated and supported by India. It is the result of the ideological and personality clashes within the ruling party, in particular bet­ween Pushpa Kamal Dahal and Prime Minister K.P. Oli. Once Nepal라이브 바카라 polity is thus weakened from the inside, it bec­omes available for another country or forces within it to try to take advantage of the evolving instability.”바카라 웹사이트
