Nepali Congress Needs A Convention


Girija Needs To Retire

He is past retirement age. He is not capable of hectic day to day work. After the country gets a new constitution, he will be in no position to run for president. It is in the best interests of the party that someone else succeed him now so that the party has a figure to project during the presidential election.

If Girija can not remain in active politics for the next seven years, he should retire now. That will be in the best interests of his party.

No Unification Without A Convention

A convention would be the best way to unify the two Congress parties. The party is reborn each convention. Everyone has to renew their membership. And so the members of the two parties would start at the bottom, and let the chips fall where they may.

The two factions show no signs of coming together otherwise.

The Mantra Is A Federal Republic

Unless the Congress factions become one and the unified party is strongly for a federal republic, the Maoists have a strong chance of emerging the largest party in the constituent assembly. Should that happen, Prachanda will be in a strong position to stake his claim for the presidency in the constituent assembly. I am for ballot power. If Prachanda harnesses it, so be it. But if I were the Congress, I would be worried.

Republic Now

The line that it is for the people to decide what they want to do with the monarchy just does not hold water. The Congress will have to take a clear stand. And that clear stand better be a republic. That is the groundswell sentiment withing the Congress itself.

New Party President

Girija's retirement will leave a wide open field. I hope there are several contestansts, and they each come forth with a plank each, a set of new ideas for the country and for party reform.

Sher Bahadur Deuba is an obvious candidate. Ram Chandra Poudel might be another. Shailaja Acharya might jump in. I hope Bimalendra Nidhi runs. If he does not win, he would be the most obvious candidate for party vice president. You need a Madhesi face up there for a party that's base is primarily in the Terai.

This might end up being the first time when the party truly has an election for president. The first generation's hold on the party has been too strong to allow for an open competition during the previous rounds.

I think each candidate will come out for a federal republic, but each will have to get much more specific in terms of the map they will likely propose for that federalism. That will spark a necessary discussion in the country at large.

Democracy is not a symphony, it is a cacophony.
