REVOLUTION TO EVOLUTION
-------------------------------------------------------
Revolution in April can bring Spring on a land scape and April revolution in Nepal has proved that. Also, Nepalese people vindicated the fact that , Marxist revolutionary concept isn’t only limited to academic discourse rather it has pratical implications. To start with , the 238 year old monarchy , under King Birendra in 90’s,decided to transform Nepal into a democratic state but mysterious murder of King and his family enabled King Gyanendra to sit on the throne, who behaved more like a dictator in the guise of democracy. As the reaction, Communist Party of Nepal (Maoist) started an armed struggle against the Nepalese state to oust the imperialistic power which snowballed into a civil war , continued from 1996-2006 , taking 12,700 lives, 1.5 lakh ousted from their home land.The political parties vacillating between loyality and duty, never succeded to put a greater impact on the Nepalese politics, till the people came out of their home to join the strrets , defying the curfew and braving to face death. Nepalese revolution is definitely 21st century’s most significant event as “we the people” comes from the draft of the constitution to the road.
In 2002, when the peace negotiation failed it was felt that Nepal was going to be another Sudan. To content the maoist struggle U.S., EU, India gave their military and economic support to Nepalese monarchy. U.S. and EU have always their dogmatic inhibition to the term “Communism”. So, without international support Neapal boiled in the heat of insurgency.
Though , India is a major player in Nepal’s cultural , political and economic life, ther is in general an Anti-Indian sentiment against India’s BISTARBAD( EXPANSIONISM). And the reasons are quite logical i.e. India actively supported Nepal’s monarchy to thwart Naxal design of creating a red-corridor from Nepal to Andhra Pradesh. Further, when China and Pakistan took unusual interest in Nepalese issue, even assuring military support ; India succumbed to the pressure of King Gyanedra’s bargains. “Hindu angle “ further messed the dirty water when RSS took interest on this only “Hindu kingdom” of the world. But, as the equation unfolded , India supported the seven party alliance , forcing the the King to hand over power.
Shifting to Maoist angle, Prachanda as the chief has shown exemplary valour and character in continuation of the struggle, making the head-way to democracy. So, it can be inferred from this people’s movement that “May it be Gandhian principle or Marxist philosophy; people’s welfare is of primary concern and some time , a bloody struggle is an escapable option.”
