The Movement Will Not Stop, It Will Go To Step 2

After getting the seven Pahadi parties to meet the basic demands of the Madhesi Movement, it will be a big mistake to think the movement can be put to rest. It will be time to get off the streets, but it will not be time to stop the movement. The movement is going to have to be taken to a whole new level.

We are going to have to come up with a few basic guidelines. Parties that do not meet those guidelines will have to be boycotted at the polling booth.

In the Madhesi majority constituencies, we will only accept Madhesi candidates. Any political party that does not abide by that will have to be boycotted.

Any party that might backtrack from the promise of federalism will have to be boycotted. Paying lip service to federalism is not going to be enough. The parties are going to have to submit specific maps for consideration. We will ask. Is this map satisfactory?

If all Madhesis are not given their citizenship papers before the constituent assembly elections, we will have to organize to defeat Krishna Sitaula in his constituency. We will also have to organize to defeat Madhav Nepal in his. As well as any other politician who has been vocal and hostile to the Madhesi on the issue.

We have to stay political, and we have to stay issue based.

And we have to stay organized.

Members of political parties that might not meet the basic guidelines should be willing to desert their respective parties.

And we have to support parties like the Sadbhavana (Anandi) with gusto.

Most importantly, we have to turn the Madhesi Janadhikar Forum into a full fledged political party, and we have to help grow it as large as possible. That party could possibly ride the wave in Madhesh, and that would be wonderful.

I also urge the two factions of the JTMM to abandon arms and compete in the elections.

Maybe the Sadbhavana (Anandi), the party born out of the Madhesi Janadhikar Forum (MJF) and the disarmed JTMM should all form an alliance so they do not compete against each other and divide the Madhesi votes. The two JTMM factions should come together and become one.

It is only fair that the eight party government engage the JTMM into disarmament talks. The JTMM battalions also should perhaps be put on standby.

At the least the Sadbhavana (Anandi), the party born out of the Madhesi Janadhikar Forum (MJF) should either form an alliance or should merge and become one party.

And the Madhesi worldwide should get organized. Launch country chapters of the Madhesi International in as many countries as possible. And grow them fast and wide.

Our goal is to make sure the first president of Nepal is a Madhesi. That is what we should move towards.

I am for totally boycotting Girija Koirala's party. I am for totally boycotting Madhav Nepal's party. We need to electorally annihilate them.

Step 1: Street action to amend the interim constitution, get electoral constituencies based on population.

Step 2: Win the election.

Step 3: First president of Nepal, a Madhesi.

Terai agitation cripples industries Kantipur The stir, which entered its 15th day Tuesday, has caused severe crisis of industrial raw materials. As a result, one third of industries of the country have shut down their manufacturing units ..... Manufacturing units along the Birgunj corridor and in Biratnagar - the two largest manufacturing hubs - have remained closed due to the ongoing stir and curfew. And industries based in Hetauda and Kathmandu, which rely on raw materials coming through Birgunj, have either closed down or scaled down their manufacturing activities. ....... “On Monday, manufacturing units of Golchha Organization in Biratnagar closed down due to the lack of availability of furnace oil and diesel” ..... The worst hit industries, according to businessmen, are pharmaceutical manufacturers and fast moving consumer goods (FMCGs). ...... “Most of those industries have halved their production” ...... Industries have also not been able to dispatch their finished products to the market. ...... Given that almost all export-oriented industries and trade facilitating infrastructures are located in central and eastern regions, closure of central and eastern Terai has badly hit the country's export trade as well. ...... “Exports of readymade garment and woolen carpet, which are two largest exports of the country, have come to a complete halt over the period” ..... The state coffers have also suffered a drastic decline in revenue collection, as collection through eastern customs such as Mechi and Biratnagar has dropped to almost zero level. ...... “Revenue collection through Birgunj customs has come down to almost zero during the period,” stated an official of Ministry of Finance. Birgunj generates the largest chunk of the state revenue.

Eight parties reach four-pt decision to resolve Terai unrest the top leaders of the eight parties expressed commitment in principle to create a federal democratic set-up through constituent assembly elections. The structure of the federal set up will be determined by the new Constitution to be drafted by the constituent assembly. ...... The parties also agreed to fix electoral constituencies for the first-past-post election system based on population and geography. New constituencies will also be added in districts where the population has grown, however, without reducing the number of the existing electoral constituencies (205). The number of seats under proportional electoral system will be equal to that of the first-past-post election system. ...... The agreement is expected to be signed on Wednesday followed by an address to the nation by the PM.
