one must not forget that a much larger

state, just as they do today by the ruling
male Khas Arya oligarchy! We are talking
here about Dalits, Janajatis, Madhesis,
Muslims and women in general, i.e. the
vast majority of Nepali society! In
contrast, the RPP, which continues to
demand monarchy and a Hindu state, was
elected by just five per cent of the
population in the last elections! The
reasons for the increasingly apparent
failure of democracy, republic and
federalism lie with the political parties
and their incompetent and exclusively
power-hungry leaders! The claim that
Gyanendra wants to ‘sacrifice himself once
again for the nation’ is a farce. He too
is only interested in returning to power.]
