New Nepal or Better Nepal?


Is there a measurement for how much is too much and how far is too far? Is there an ending point for the everyday mortifying situation of Nepal? The overall situation of Nepal is getting worse each and every second. When we compare with a physical anatomy of the human beings, there is always an ending point. And the finale point is death. No one can escape from it. It has never been possible to be an exception except in the fairy tales and fictions. However, the debasing situation in Nepal seems to have no ending point though. Contradictory rules here!! Will there be the cessation of all the misdemeanors in Nepal?
We all the Nepalese people waited and waited; the more we waited, the more we fell apart, far and far behind, so hard to get back. We are in a big mess. Every thing is out of track and dysfunctional. At present, the country suffered from every kind of disease and need to be prescribed every kind of medicine at the same time? How possible is it? What will be the impact of it? The country is so weak that it has no power to stonewall. And the worst thing is that the malicious vampires and leeches in the form of humans are still sucking the blood of the country knowing the fact that the country is already frail. For this reason, many of the Nepalese people already lost hope which is their last resort. Many people by now stopped to be hopeful in Nepal. Every single day is becoming longer and longer for them. The dazzling and sparkly faces of Nepalese people are decreasing bit by bit.
We have already seen our new Nepal by now. We don't want it to be newer anymore if same iniquitous things keep happening in the name of New Nepal. This is not what we want. We had a dream that our New Nepal would have love and respect for everyone. But we are behaving as enemies with each other in our New Nepal. We already lost our honesty, politeness and sincerity and developed hatred amongst all our brothers and sisters. We are hostile to each other. Just as a minor example- The way we treat and behave with the conductors and the way they treat passengers show how respectful we are. Are not we aggressive to each other in our New Nepal? In our New Nepal, nothing is certain; nobody knows when and which part of the country will have a strike or Banda? Why everyone repeats the same way to show dissatisfaction over some one with Banda, strike and demonstration creating havoc for many people? Why we Nepalese people never think about others? We curse when others initiate strike or Banda but we forget the discomfort and loss of many when we set off strike or Banda. Isn't there any other better way to show discontent?
Besides this, why we Nepalese people are one step ahead only in talking worthless issues? Don’t we think that we talk too much? We argue about everything including political situations blaming and pointing everyone for today’s New Nepal, claiming ourselves clean and descent. We should also remember that when we point out others with a finger to blame, rest of the fingers point towards us, too. We talk and talk and simultaneously, watch and watch but never realize that we are part of the whole nation and are responsible for every mayhem in our country. We, citizens are watching; blaming and fighting with each other and waiting political leaders to change the system of Nepal. As spectators, there is a difference in watching the movies in a theatre and watching dirty live games of the country. We can not just sit down watching the game being played by foul players; we should think that we are part of the game, too. We could only win this national game only when we all show our unity regardless of different caste, group, ethnicity, and religion. Why can't we have reconciliation among all the Nepalese people once again as we had during April Revolution for better Nepal? I would prefer to say better Nepal instead of New Nepal since our New Nepal has foul smell. (Go around Kathmandu valley, you will smell it.) If we really do not think and act for better Nepal, we would soon be close to Darfur in Sudan and Rwanda (genocide of Hutus and Tutsis).
