Kathmandu: Four frustrated political brains housed in different political groupings have rejuvenated their struggle against what they call “regression” which they say this time the movement thus waged against regression would come to a halt until the monarch corrected his past constitutional blunders.

The fact is that the four parties now gathered in the Ratnapark island would make a great joke of themselves simply because Nepal now has a government in Sigh Durbar that is participated in by four major political parties and by this time have already enjoyed the blessings and the required recognitions from the larger sections of the democratic establishments of the world including, for example, India, the United Kingdom and the lone super power, the United States of America.

The misguided brains under the influence of certain extra-territorial quarters presumably that have converged in Ratnapark must understand, analysts say, that things have tremendously changed and the changed political environment was not in their favor and that those who command respect in the comity of the nations all have appealed the men in the streets to either take part in the present cabinet or at least support the Deuba set and face the Maoists challenge united.

This amply hints that the international community would wish the men in the streets coming closer and make the government of the day more stronger which would certainly add up to the bargaining capabilities of the government at time of the talks with the rebels.

The men in the streets, for unknown reasons, appear determined in their presumption that if they stepped up their movement in the streets the king would be pressed hard to yield to their demands.

The King appears to be listening to their rhetoric but presumably has left the rest to be taken care of by his Government led by his prime minister, Deuba.

That the government this time would retaliate in a much more hard manner should the agitators at Ratnapark create panic and disorders in the society here and there becomes clear from the manner the Home Ministry Monday evening suggested the agitators not to cross the constitutional limits.

This means that the government is ready to face to the challenges posed to it by the agitators come what may.

Media sources say that the coalition partners of the movement against regression too appear divided on whether to support their commander, Koirala, in the case of the latter being dragged by the apex court or keep a comfortable distance with their commander until the case is finalized. It is natural that the coalition partners should now differ with Koirala who prefers to mix his private case with the movement against regression. His partners disagree.

To recall, Koirala’s own party members have made it amply clear that since it was a case that is concerned with Koirala only thus it would be incorrect to consider the Koirala episode as a case that the party should fight for.

This particular NC decision appears to have made Koirala weaker in his stand. It is talked that Koirala’s detractors in the party wish Koirala to face the charges on his own concluding that if charges made against Koirala by the CIAA got proved, he would automatically be sidelined from contesting next round of congress presidency.

Sources say that the court which has summoned Koirala to be present at the court personally would in all likelihood release Koirala taking into account the latter’s immense contributions to the restoration of democracy and consolidating its ideals and values in the country after 1990.

The men in the street must understand that their commander is in the dock. Apart from this, the coalition partners differ on many counts, which significantly weakens the movement against regression. Add to this, the incoming Indian support explicitly in the pocket of Deuba and for that matter the King should also send messages to those who have dared to come to the streets again to fight regression.
