It is a pity that the agitation by the Terai-Madhes groups has finally resulted in India-Nepal Relations taking a nose dive, thanks to messy handling from both sides.

At last, the Koirala Government appears to have realised the seriousness of the situation. The top three leaders who in the words of their own Baburam Bhattarai had transformed themselves into a “ruling class” met at Baluwatar yesterday and decided to withdraw the army to its barracks, provided the protests are peaceful.

Amidst intensified violence in the Terai- Madhes, with the continuing crackdown by Police and mobilization by the Army, the Constituent Assembly has begun voting on the various clauses of the new constitution. This followed the decision of the three top political parties- the Nepali Congress, the UML and the Maoists- UCPN (M) to go ahead despite the protests.

With funds from abroad waiting to be used for rehabilitation and reconstruction work, the Government appears to be more keen in re drawing the controversial provincial boundaries resulting in a serious law and order situation in the south rather than take urgent measures to start the reconstruction work in all seriousness.

I had always maintained that without solving the contentious issue of the delineation of provinces, the drafting of the new constitution cannot be completed. This was the most serious issue affecting the Madhesi and the Janajathi groups and some solution should have been found before the final draft copy was handed over to the Speaker.
