On 28 February, the 30 party alliance of the opposition led by the Maoists held a massive demonstration in Kathmandu to force the government to revert back to find a consensus in constitution drafting rather than take the route to finalise through voting in the constituent assembly.

As expected the dead line of Jan 22, 2015 for the promulgation of a new constitution is being missed. The political parties refused to compromise and made little headway in drafting a new constitution. One whole year was wasted.

It should be conceded that Bhutan as a young democracy is still on a learning curve and mistakes do happen. There will be teething problems. Except for the entrenched bureaucrats all the rest involved in the administration directly and indirectly like the politicians, parliamentarians, ministers and the National Council members could make mistakes and these should be taken in the stride.

There appears to be no seriousness on the part of te political leaders to expedite the constitution drafting process.
Though the dead line of January 22nd was a self-imposed one, it was one date on which all the political parties had expressed their commitment at the time of the elections for the second interim constitution.

It looks almost certain that the self-imposed deadline of 22nd January to get the new constitution ready cannot be adhered to.
