मई १२ तारीख िदउँसो १ देिख ४ बजे हुने न्यु यर्क मेट्रोका नेपाली संगठनहरूको कर्िडनेशन किमिटको पिहलो िमिटङमा मैले छाता संगठनको प्रस्ताव राख्न लागेको छु।


एक वर्ष अगािड न्यु यर्कका नेपाली संगठनहरू भेला होअौं न त भनेर तारा िनरौलाजीले पहल गर्नुभयो। त्यसपिछ नभम्बरमा दोस्रो िमिटङ भयो ताराजी अध्यक्ष रहनुभएको अमेिरका नेपाल फ्रेन्डिशप सोसायटीकै तत्वावधानमा। त्यस नभम्बर िमिटङमा खगेन्द्र जीसीजीको प्रस्ताव अनुसार हामी सबैले िमलेर कर्िडनेशन किमिट गठन गर्यौं। अागामी छ मिहनाकालािग कर्िडनेटरमा ताराजी चुिननुभयो र मई मिहनाको िमिटङको कन्िभनरमा म िनर्िवरोध चुिनएँ। कर्िडनेशन किमिट र रोटेिटङ िलडरशीप नै राख्ने िक छाता संगठन र वार्िषक, िनर्वािचत िलडरशीपमा जाने, प्रश्न त्यो छ।

मेरो प्रस्ताव छाता संगठनको हो। तर मेरो प्रस्ताव छलफल र बहुमतबाट पास नभएमा कर्िडनेशन किमिट नै कायम रहनेछ। रोटेिटङ िलडरशीप भनेको अागामी छ मिहना म कर्िडनेटर र नभम्बर िमिटङकालािग अरू नै कोही कन्िभनर हुने हो िक?

मधेशी अान्दोलनकालािग मधेशीहरूलाई संगिठत गर्न जित गार्हो हो, न्यू यर्क मेट्रोका नेपालीहरूलाई न्यू यर्कमा अाफ्नो हकिहतकालािग संगिठत गर्न त्यस्तै गार्हो। छाता संगठनको प्रस्तावको व्यापक िवरोध हुँदैअाएको छ। छाता संगठनको प्रस्तावको िवरोध गर्नु भनेको हामी नेपाली संगिठत हुन चाहन्नौं भन्नु हो। बच्चाले नाईं म दुध खान्न िक खान्नँ भने जस्तो हो। खाउ न खाउ, ितम्रो स्वास्थ्यकोलािग राम्रो हो भनेर कित भिनराख्ने?

न्यू यर्कका अिधकांश नेपालीले िमनीमम वेज पिन पाइराख्या छैनन्। नेपालीहरूको िदमाग कमजोर होइन। अिधकांश एकसे एक िदग्गज पढ्यालेख्या नेपाली नै छन्। पिरष्रमको कुरा गर्ने हो भने गोरू जोितए झैं जोितन्छन्। बरू गोराहरू शुक्रवार बेलुकी देिख सोमवार िवहानसम्म मोजमस्ती गर्छन्। अिधकांश नेपाली हप्तामा सातै िदन खट्छन्। तर गोराहरू र नेपालीहरूको कमाई अाकाशपाताल फरक छ। िकन? नेपालीहरूसँग राजनीितक शक्ित छैन, त्यस कारणले।

नेपालीहरू सबैले िमलेर अप्िरल क्रान्ित गरे। मधेशीहरूले मधेशी क्रान्ित गरे। नेपालीहरूले तेस्रो क्रान्ित संसारको राजधानी न्यू यर्कमा गर्नुपर्ने भएकोछ। त्यो तेस्रो क्रान्ित हडताल गर्ने, चक्का जाम गर्ने िकिसमको हुँदैन। त्यो क्रान्ित इन्टरनेटको भरपूर प्रयोग गरेर संगिठत हुने क्रान्ित हो, त्यो क्रान्ित भनेको संगिठत भएर ग्लोबल साउथका (Global South) अन्य समुदायहरूसँग गठबन्धन बनाउने हो। दक्िषण एिसयाका अरू समूहहरू, एिसयन संगठनहरू, अफ्िरकनहरू, िहस्प्यािनकहरू। हामी सबैको समस्या उस्तै उस्तै छ। त्यसैले हामी सबै िमल्नुपर्छ।

प्रवासी नेपालीले नेपालिभत्र त अाफ्नो अिधकार िलनै छ, र त्यस प्रवासी नेपाली अान्दोलनको नेतृत्व वर्षौंदेिख उपेन्द्र महतोजीले गरदैअाउनु भएकोछ। त्यो संघर्ष द्वैध नागिरकताकालािग हो। तर प्रवासी नेपालीले गर्नुपर्ने अर्को अान्दोलन छ, र त्यो हो िवश्व भिर नै अाफ्नो हकिहतकालािग लड्ने लडाइ। त्यसको शंखघोष हामी न्यु यर्कबाट गरौं।

न्युयर्कमा १२ लाख न्युयर्कर यस्ता छन् जसले शहरको चुनावमा भोट िदन पाइराखेका छैनन्, त्यसमध्ये ३५-४० हजार नेपाली छन्। पिहलो अान्दोलन त त्यो नै हो। त्यस िकिसमको िबल सीिट काउन्िसलमा अाइ पिनसकेको हो, तर तुिहयो। मास मुभमेन्ट नभएसम्म त्यो िबल पास हुनेवाला छैन।

दोस्रो मुद्दा छ नागिरकताको। अमेिरकाको डेमोक्र्यािटक पार्टीले भन्दैअाएको छ िक अमेिरकामा एक करोड २० लाख गैर कानूनी रूपले अाएर बसेका मािनसहरू छन्। १० वर्ष बिससकेकाले नागिरकता पाउनुपर्छ भन्ने कुरा छ। त्यस एक करोड २० लाख मध्ये ५०,००० नेपाली पिन छन् िक? त्यो १० वर्षलाई घटाएर अाठ अथवा पाँच वर्ष पो पुर्याउनुपर्छ िक भनेर हामीले सोध्नुपर्ने भएकोछ।

मेरो भन्नुको तात्पर्य ग्रीनकार्ड भएका र गैर कानूनी रूपले अाएका दुवै िकिसमका नेपालीहरू संगिठत हुनु िनतान्त जरूरी छ, र छाता संगठन स्थापना नगरेसम्म संगिठत हुन सिकंदैन। मई िमिटङमा त्यो ANONYM (Association of Nepali Organizations in New York Metro) को स्थापना मात्र गर्ने िक र त्यसको बैैठक प्रत्येक तीन मिहनामा हुने गर्िदने? अिन अगस्टको िमिटङमा बकाइदा संिवधान पािरत गर्ने र चुनाव गराउने?

म त भन्छु मई िमिटङमा नै सब थोक गिरहालौं। ANONYM को स्थापना गरौं। संिवधान पािरत गरौं। पाँच पदािधकारीको खुला चुनाव गरौं। प्रेिसडेन्ट, २ भाइस प्रेिसडेन्ट, सेक्रेटरी, ट्रेजरर। संस्थापक अध्यक्ष पदको दावेदार त म नै हो।


ANONYM को अाधारभूत िसद्धान्त दुइ वटा हुनुपर्छ जस्तो लाग्छ मलाई: democracy and transparency। राजनीितमा एक व्यक्ित एक मत भनेको Physics मा E=mc^2 भने जस्तो हो। राजनीितमा सबै शक्ित त्यसै एक व्यक्ित एक मतबाट अाउनुपर्छ। ANONYM का सदस्य संगठनहरूको भोट त्यस संगठनमा कित सदस्य छन्, त्यस अनुसार हुनेछ।

मई िमिटङमा ANONYM को स्थापना हुनेछ भन्ने म अाशा गर्दछु। त्यो एेितहािसक
मई िमिटङ गर्न ठाउँ कसले िदने? याक रेष्टोराँले िदने िक न्यू स्कूलले िदने िक कोलम्िबयाले िदने िक GFIPN ले िदने िक कसले िदने? त्यो पिन प्रश्न छ।

Goal Is Ideological Fusion, Not Mainstreaming Maoists


Only the form of struggle has changed, says Prachanda NepalNews his party has not abandoned the long-term people's war strategy .... his party was following the dictum of Mao Zedong that struggle does not end even if the party joins government. .... if their method becomes successful that could trigger waves across the world. ..... Prachanda also mocked the remarks made by Prime Minister Girija Prasad Koirala recently at SAARC Summit in New Delhi. "He said that he has mainstreamed terrorists but it is clear that the coming days will show who has (mainstreamed) whom," Prachanda said. He also termed seven parties as spineless.

The major ideological clash in the last century was between communism and capitalism. The official story is communism got defeated. The Maoists of Nepal bucked that trend. They grew like wildfire for a decade. The war was bloody. Thousands of lives were lost. A triangle emerged. One angle was the feudal monarchy, another was the Maoist party, and the seven parties that represented west style multi-party democracy and mixed economy were the third angle. The king's coup of February 2005 started a process that forged an eight party alliance that made the April Revolution possible. The credit goes to the people.

I do not see Girija Koirala as the leader. He has been a cork in the water. When the water moves, he moves. Take the cork out and the water will still move. At best he has been the "constitutional monarch" of the April Revolution.

Girija Koirala was the father of the concept of a military solution to the Maoist insurgency in Nepal. He never had the knowledge or the imagination to have even tried a political solution. Deuba and the king just went further down that road.

It was not Girija Koirala who saw that the plank of a democratic republic might forge an eight party alliance and might help the Maoists ditch their vision of a one party state, and make no mistake, a one party state is what they had in mind for the longest time. It was not Girija Koirala who saw that a constituent assembly was the only meeting point for the three forces in the country. Girija did not lead. He has followed. He has not created waves. He has been pushed around by the waves. It is just in a traditional, patriarchal society like ours, his age seems to give him an edge.

Those who claim credit for the April Revolution - be it in the Congress camp, or the communist camp - have never really articulated as to the enormity of what happened. Nepal is about to become a multi-party democracy of state funded parties. Nepal's mixed election system will have the best features of proportional representation, and representation tied to geography and based on constituencies of roughly equal population.

The Maoists are not about to become just another political party in an Indian or British or American style democracy. When you say mainstreaming, you make it sound like they are. What is about to happen in Nepal is not a defeat of communism or a victory of western style democracy. What is about to happen in Nepal is something fundamental, something that has not happened anywhere, not in any country at any point in history. This is too big.

Nepal is about to become the number one democracy on the planet. And in that sense the April Revolution is bigger than the French Revolution was. Nepal, more than any other country on the planet, more than America with all its military might and riches, is best positioned to take the lead on ensuring a total spread of democracy on the planet. Nepal is going to spread revolution like Cuba never was able to, like China never was able to, like the Soviet Union was never able to.

The first step was to throw away the old order through sheer people power. The second step has been to design the number one democracy. Soon enough we are going to have to get into the business of exporting. I am thinking Zimbabwe, I am thinking Burma, I am thinking Bhutan. I am thinking Pakistan. I am thinking every country that is not a democracy. And our message is you don't need outside help. You are sufficient unto yourselves. Just rise up, come out into the streets, shut the country down for a few weeks. And you can do it too. You can also have the latest edition of democracy, democracy the way it should be, democracy that is one person one vote in its purity.

New York Metro Nepalis: Organizational Challenges

I am working to organize the Nepalis in New York City so we can build The Matrix and spread revolution.

The Matrix, Vision, Spread Democracy, Revolution

The idea of peace in Nepal has been to follow the South African model. You set up a Truth And Reconciliation Commission. But otherwise you are not seeking punitive justice. Let bygones be bygones. Let's start afresh.

Heck, I am thinking India and China. As soon as Nepal formally becomes a federal, multi-party democracy of state-funded parties, both India and China are going to come under immense pressure to emulate. That will be the only way to cure India of its number one security threat, its Maoist insurgency. And that will also be a way for China to take up democracy without making it look like they caved into western pressures.

What is happening in Nepal is super exciting. It is cutting edge. Mount Everest is just landscape, so it does not really count. Otherwise the political fermentation in Nepal is comparable to when Buddha was born, and he set out a religion that went to take over the world. That is how huge it is that which is happening in Nepal. But there still is major work to do. And we have to keep at it.

Free, fair and fearless elections must be held in June. All the agitating Madhesi groups have to contest elections or they stand to get sidelined.

Another thing I give Maoists the credit for is their map for federalism. I myself started out with a three state federalism: Koshi, Gandaki, Karnali. Now I stand by a map that is a slightly modified one of the Maoist map. They have nine states, I have eight. I have a Khasan. In hindsight I see they put a lot of work into it. I am admiring of that. And I openly give them credit where credit is due. As a Madhesi I am thankful for that map. A Madhesh state from Rapti to Mechi is what I want as a Madhesi.

But even the Maoists have not done much work on the separation of powers between the center and the states. Each state will have its three branches of government, that is for sure.

In short, things are exciting. I watch developments in Nepal with abated breath.

गणतान्त्िरक तराई मुक्ित मोर्चा के दो फ्याक्सन हैं, ज्वाला और गोइत। एक हैं मधेशी टाइगर्स। और एक हैं तराई कोबरा। मेरे जानकारीमें तराईके पक्षमें बन्दूक उठाए हुए यही चार समूह हैं। अगर नेपालमें मधेशी दुसरे तीसरे दर्जेके नागिरक, गैर नागिरक न होते तो िजस तरह माअोवादीयोंके साथ वार्ता की गइ, िजस तरह माअोवादी सेनाको क्यान्टोनमेन्टमें रखा गया उसी तरह इन चार मधेसी समूहोके साथ भी शान्ित वार्ता होती। िहंसात्मक संघर्षकी बात छोिडए, २१ िदन तक जो अिहंसात्मक मधेशी क्रान्ित चली, ३८ शहीद हुए, उस तकको पहाडी सत्ताधारीयोने अपमान िकया है। नैितकताके अाधार पर गृह मन्त्रीनें राजीनामा नहीं िदया। ३८ शहीदोंको शहीद घोषणा नहीं िकया गया अभी तक।

ये पहाडी सत्ताधारी मधेशीको अादमी नहीं िगन्ते हैं, समझते हैं कीडामकौरा हैं। उसी यथार्थके िवरूद्ध सद्भावना (अानन्दी) के तरह कुछ मधेशी सत्तामें गए हुए हैं। कुछ मधेशी जनािधकार फोरमके तरह अिहंसात्मक क्रान्ित छेड िदए। कुछनें बन्दूक उठा िलया। रास्ता फरक फरक है लेिकन गन्तव्य तो एक ही है और वो है मधेशी समानता, मधेशीको बराबरका हक िहत िदलाना।

बन्दूक उठाए चार समूह अपने तरह से लड रहे हैं। मधेशी जनािधकार फोरमका अपना लाइन है। सद्भावना (अानन्दी)का अलग लाइन है। पहाडी पार्टीयोंमे जो मधेशी हैं उनका अलग लाइन है। सत्ताधारी अाठ पार्टीके मधेशीयोने िनर्णय कर िलया है िक चुनाव लडना है। राजेन्द्र महतोके शब्दमें संिवधान सभाको "महासंग्राम" माना जा रहा है। वो कोइ गलत लाइन नहीं है।

मधेशी जनािधकार फोरम अौर उपेन्द्र यादवजी गृह मन्त्रीके राजीनामा के अडान पर डटे हैं। उनकी िहम्मतको मैं दाद देता हुँ। मैं न्यु यर्कमें बैठा हुँ। मधेशकी िनर्णय मुझे नहीं करनी है। अिहंसाके दायरामें रहके मधेशी जनािधकार फोरम मधेशी अिधकारके िलए जो भी करे उस प्रित मेरी नैितक समर्थन रहेगी। मैने तो सोंचा था िगिरजा नए सरकारमें िसटौलाको बाइबाइ बोलेगा। लेिकन वैसा नहीं हुवा। िगिरजाका राजनीितक धर्म है बाहुनवाद। वो पहाडी है। अपना धर्म िनभा रहा है। नयी सरकारमें भी िसटौलाको ही गृह मन्त्री पद पर रखके िगिरजाने मधेशी समुदायका घोर अपमान िकया है।

राजतन्त्रके िवरूद्ध लडने के िलए सब पहाडी एक हो गए थे। सात पार्टी अौर माअोवादी एक हो गए थे। पहाडीतन्त्रके िवरूद्ध लडने के िलए सभी मधेशी समूहोंको एक हो जानी परेगी। सद्भावना (अानन्दी), सद्भावना, मधेशी जनािधकार फोरम, गणतान्त्िरक तराई मुक्ित मोर्चा-ज्वाला, गणतान्त्िरक तराई मुक्ित मोर्चा-गोइत, मधेशी टाइगर्स, तराई कोबरा। सबको िमल कर एक मधेशी अलायन्स बनानी होगी। सद्भावना (अानन्दी), सद्भावना, मधेशी जनािधकार फोरम एक तरफ रहेंगे। गणतान्त्िरक तराई मुक्ित मोर्चा-ज्वाला, गणतान्त्िरक तराई मुक्ित मोर्चा-गोइत, मधेशी टाइगर्स, तराई कोबरा दुसरी तरफ। एक समझदारी हो। गणतान्त्िरक तराई मुक्ित मोर्चा-ज्वाला, गणतान्त्िरक तराई मुक्ित मोर्चा-गोइत, मधेशी टाइगर्स, तराई कोबरा बन्दुक अभी नहीं त्यागेंगे। लेिकन बन्दुक चलाएंगे भी नहीं।

अभी तो अजीब स्िथित है। सद्भावना (अानन्दी) का सद्भावनासे गप्प नहीं होता है। सद्भावना (अानन्दी) का मधेशी जनािधकार फोरमसे गप्प नहीं होता है। उन तीनोंका िहंसात्मक समूहोंसे गप्प नहीं होता है। चार जो िहंसात्मक समूह हैं उनका एक दुसरेसे गप्प नहीं होता है। अगर हम सभीका लक्ष्य एक है तो हम एक दुसरेसे गप्प क्यों नहीं कर सकते हैं?

मधेशी अलायन्स अगर गठन होती है तो उसके पास दो रास्ता है। या तो संिवधान सभाके चुनावके दौरान एक हप्ता नेपाल बन्द करके चुनावको िबथोल्ना, या तो चुनावको "महासंग्राम" के रूपमें स्वीकार करना। मेरा प्रस्ताव है िक संिवधान सभाके चुनावको महासंग्रामके रूपमें स्वीकार िकया जाए। बल्िक एक मधेशी अलायन्स गठन हो अौर चुनावमें हम मधेशी तराईमें स्वीप करें।

अायरल्याण्डमें िसन फेन सेना भी रखती थी अौर राजनीितक पार्टी भी। गणतान्त्िरक तराई मुक्ित मोर्चा-ज्वाला, गणतान्त्िरक तराई मुक्ित मोर्चा-गोइत, मधेशी टाइगर्स, तराई कोबरा को मेरा सुझाव है िक अाप लोग भी वैसा ही करें। अपना अपना राजनीितक पार्टी खोेलें अौर चुनावमें होम जाएँ। मधेशी अलायन्स तराईमें स्वीप करेगी अौर सरकार बनाएगी, वो सरकार अापसे अादरपूर्वक बात करेगी, तब अाप बन्दूकको पूर्णा रूपसे िवस्राम देंगे। अभी लेिकन बम अौर बन्दूकको चुप रिखए।

मधेशी अलायन्स अगर बनती है तो उसे एक कमन िमनीमम प्रोग्रामकी अावश्यकता परेगी। हमारा प्रमुख मुद्दा तो है मधेश राज्यका स्थापना। उस पर भी कइ तरहकी बाते हैं। सद्भावना (अानन्दी) कहती है पुर्वी तराई, पश्िचमी तराई करके दो राज्य हो। मधेशी जनािधकार फोरम अौर गणतान्त्िरक तराई मुक्ित मोर्चा-गोइत पुरे तराईको एक राज्यके रूपमें देखना चाहती है। मधेशी टाइगर्स, तराई कोबराको भी शायद वही चािहए। गणतान्त्िरक तराई मुक्ित मोर्चा-ज्वाला तराईमें चार राज्य चाहती है: थारूवान, अवध, भोजपुर, िमिथला। मातृका यादवको दो राज्य चािहए, थारूवान अौर मधेश। अन्ितम िनर्णय लेिकन जनता करेगी।

मधेशी अान्दोलनके क्रममें मैं देख रहा हुँ अभी सबसे महत्वपूर्ण बात है मधेशी जनािधकार फोरमका एक राजनीितक पार्टी बन जाना। तब तो मधेशी अलायन्स ठोस रूपसे न बने तो भी कोइ बेफायदा नहीं है। गणतान्त्िरक तराई मुक्ित मोर्चा-ज्वाला, गणतान्त्िरक तराई मुक्ित मोर्चा-गोइत, मधेशी टाइगर्स, तराई कोबरा बन्दूक न छोडे, िसर्फ अपनी अपनी राजनीितक फ्रन्ट खडा करके चुनाव लडे तो भी ठीक है। थोडा बहुत चुनावी तालमेल हो सीटोंके िलए। अाधा जो समानुपाितक िनर्वाचनकी बात है, उसके िलए तो वैसी तालमेलकी भी जरूरत नहीं है।

मधेशी अान्दोलनके इस मोड पर अाके मधेशी जनािधकार फोरमका धर्म बनता है िक खुदको एक राजनीितक पार्टी बना लें अौर नारा दे िक िजन िजन चुनावी क्षेत्रोमें मधेशी बहुमतमें हैं उनसे िसर्फ मधेशीयोको ही िजताया जाए। मधेशसे पहाडी नेताअोंका पत्ता साफ करो। िगिरजाको हराअो। िसटौलाको हराअो। अब हम लोग राजीनामाकी भीख माङना छोड दें अौर उनको चुनावमें हरानेकी बात करें। जो जनता सडक पर उतरके क्रान्ित कर सकती है, शहीद हो सकती है वो जनता भोट भी तो दे सकती है।
