N. P. Upadhyaya, Kathmandu: The aggressive arrogant UML (United Marxists-Leninists) leader Madhav Kumar Nepal in the early nineties proposed that “to tame King Birendra”, the Indian Army be invited”.
This was his proposal then which was made null and void when the UML “paramount” leader Madan Kumar Bhandari scolded Mr. Nepal and ordered him to take back his “anti-national” bid.
UML sources claim that Madhav Kumar Nepal with a heavy heart complied but his inner mindset got disseminated. Perhaps Mr. Nepal is thinking “big” still as per his “suspected” mindset.
And the same Madhav Kumar Nepal in close association with the Delhi qualified and programmed Prachanda waged almost a frontal war with his party senior colleague K.
P. Oli who fortunately is the sitting Prime Minister of India controlled country-sovereign and independent Nepal.
Mr. Nepal is still unbending to bend the yet another unyielding Prime Minister Oli.
Mr. Nepal, honestly speaking, draws his strength and continued stamina to face PM Oli is surely from the Indian regime.
Mr. Nepal’s forte gets trebled when he colludes with the other Delhi skilled and fostered child-Prachanda who has the distinction to have waged a war against mother Nepal for over a decade by behaving like a Lendhup Dorje of the “unfortunate” Sikkim and that too by residing in Delhi-the seat of the Mughals and the British East India Company.
So the current set of Madhav-Prachanda is the perfect match which, as some would like to, equate with the Sikkim’s Lendhup Dorjes whose, though yet unclear, inner intent and activities apparently tend to make us believe that the “set” is hell bent on strengthening the hands of the regime that has ever remained inimical towards Nepal-that is India.
To come to the point:
The fact is that both Madhav Nepal and Prachanda and disillusioned flock that is circling around the duo since two month or so are up against Prime Minister Oli only because PM Oli dared to incorporate the lost territories of Nepal in the new political and the administrative map.
The Madhav-Prachanda duo contend that Prime Minister Oli by incorporating the lost lands in new Nepali map dared to tease big country India which he should have honestly avoided by submitting himself to the mercy of the former British slaves.
PM Oli did what was in the best interest of the people and the country.
And this “courageous act” of PM Oli annoyed the India bend duo to the extent that they tried and have been trying hard yet to topple PM Oli’s government.
Needless to say, the Madhav-Prachanda duo were speaking the inner mind of the Indian regime and the “flock” which is siding with the thug communists duo were all tentatively strengthening the hands of the Oli’s detractors thereby adding to the pleasure of the regional scoundrel that unfortunately borders Nepal in the South.
By the way, no bilateral agreements in between Nepal and India forces Nepal to keep its borders open in the South. The borders have been kept open under the strict orders from the late Indian Prime Minister Nehru whose “doctrine” has made sovereign Nepal as a “protectorate” a la Baby Bhutan.
Thus Madhav-Prachanda duo and their “political tails” have in a circuitous manner serving the regime of the former British slaves.
The former slaves have found new slaves in Nepal a la Lendhup Dorjes?
Is then the one who is inviting the Indian Army for an invasion is also a ….?
Let’s for the sake of convenience infer that the present Madhav-Prachanda tussle is the creation of the Delhi regime and the Nepali leaders have been serving the Islamophobic Gang of four ( PM Modi, Ajit Doval, Home Minister Amit Sah and the split personality Jay Shankar) who control the Indian establishment.
When Madhav Kumar Nepal developed the idea for the Indian military invasion of Nepal to take King Birendra, Nepal’s Army institution kept a stoic silence giving an impression that the Nepal Army is an easy going institution and that any attempt to invade Nepal by a foreign Army shall be greeted with courtesy and that Nepal Army has no such unit called “Intelligence”.
The Nepal Army though pumps in money to the tune of millions and millions to keep it abreast with the political aberrations but fails to locate and inform the government that Nepal’s Parliament has been housing several Indian nationals as Nepali Parliamentarians in the lower House.
The Nepal Army also fails to safe guard Nepali landmass in Susta, Kalapani, Lipulekh, Maheshpur, Chapkaiya, Badki Fulwaria Pashupati Nagar, Tilathi and many more places and leaves these nepali lands to the mercy of the Indian regime whose Army Chief lectures Nepal to keep a distance with Nepal’s Northern neighbor China.
To add insult to injury, the Nepali Army greets the Indian Army chief and honors him with Nepal’s high decoration as if the recipient will begin eulogizing the Nepali leaders and will not coerce the Nepali leaders much the same was General Deepak Kapoor had made a telephonic call to Nepal President Dr. Ram Baran Yadav not to sack Army Chief Rukmangad Katwal.
President Yadav was also pressurized by the India’s Bengali leader Pranav Mukherjee who some time later became President of India.
The Katwal episode more or less certified that Nepal Army institution is almost an extension of the Indian Army and that, if it is so, this “tradition” must be scrapped the next second.
Nepal Army to keep its glorious image intact must show its presence in Susta, Maheshpur, Kalapani and Lipulek or else the accusation that this Army is an India serving institution will prevail.
The Army which fails to preserve its own motherland is obviously of no use for the nation.
As of now, Nepal Army is an expensive burden like “Ornament” for the country and that this load can’t be sustained by this donor driven country.
Army Chief Purna Thapa appears more loyal for the motherland but yet his actions on the “shrinking border” give an impression that he too prefers reluctance in saving the lessening borders of his own motherland.
This is unfortunate.
Needless to say, the Army understands the land encroachment being practiced by the Indian side but yet Nepal Army’s stillness is loaded with mystery which has puzzled the national population forcing them all to ask “why for the Nepal Army”?
Army’s silence is really dangerous in many more ways than one.
Comparatively speaking, the Indian Army is far more nationalist than our own Army.
The Indian Army at least is seen at the borders fighting with the Chinese Army in order to save its land from across the border.
The Indian Army is fighting with the Chinese army since 1962 and has been at least trying to save the Indian land from Chinese so called “aggression”.
In the same manner, the Chinese Army is a nationalist Army in that it has been fighting with the Indian Army to halt the Indian penetration into its land (inside the Chinese territory).
Thus both the Armies of India and China have been doing all it can to save and serve their motherland(s) by fighting with each other at the borders.
And look what Nepal Army has been doing or has done over these years to defend the Nepali territories which are being gulped by the expansionist Indian side in a broad day light since the next days of the Indian Independence.
And the Pakistani Army is even more nationalist than the Indian Army, comparatively speaking.
The Army in Pakistan was on “duty” from the very next days of the partition to save its motherland from the expansionist Indian Army and doing perhaps the same even as of today.
Thanks the Pakistani Army that not even a single inch of the Pak territory has been gulped by the Indian Army along the long Pak-India border.
Apart from defending the country from the tricky Indian enemy army, the Pakistan Army generals, more so the Army Chief Qamar Javed Bajwa at times speaks or send positive signals to the enemy nation that India is.
He spoke “peace” with Indi just last week.
For example, the Pakistani Army Chief Qamar Javed Bajwa on March 18 spoke almost in an unexpected “reconciliatory tone” that must have pleased the otherwise the erratic and the arrogant Indian leaders more so the Indian Army Generals when they heard Bajwa extending message of peace to the other side of the border.
Army general Bajwa said that his country was ready to forge peace with India provided the Indian establishment prefers to have a composite dialogue with Pakistan over the India’s Illegally Occupied Kashmir issue.
Look the difference, Armies in and around the South Asian region at times speak for peace concurrently while defending their own borders.
Nepal Army institution remains speech less even at times of national crisis such as and when Nepali landmass are being captured by the Indian side.
An Amy perhaps is a national burden which deviates from discharging its foremost bounden duty and that being the preservation of its territorial integrity.
The Nepal Army to regain its lost glories, must remain ever vigilant and keep its intelligence unit active which then can scan the “Nepali leaders and the media men” who have been selling the “national security” related information(s) to the interested “aliens” as against hefty financial gains.
Needless to say, if Madhav Nepal who is on record to have proposed the Indian military invasion of Nepal to tame late King Birendra then there must be the presence of some more “political and media leaders” who may have tacit linkages with foreign armies and in the process supplying security related information(s) to some declared or even undeclared “enemy” countries.
Very recently, Dr. Babu Ram Bhattarai-the former Maoists leader who is talked to be more Indian than the Indian nationals told the Indian media that “Nepal Prime Minister must not have irritated the giant Indian establishment by publishing a new political and administrative map”.
Clearly, in saying so Dr. Bhattarai talks of submission and surrender to the regime which for a decade or so nourished him carefully.
Thus it is natural for the former Nepal Prime Minister to side with India even at the cost of his own nation.
Dr. Bhattarai perhaps spoke to what he was expected or what he was told to ventilate for the larger consumption of the people back in Nepal.
And the Nepal Army listens to these unfortunate comments made by some Nepali nationals and yet prefers to keep silence. What does this mean then? Question thus could be posed: is the Nepal Army loyal to the country? If it is then why the Nepal Army doesn’t establish a battalion at those border points where the Indian encroachment is high?
Let’s hope that the Nepal Army lives to the expectations of the common population and keeps an eye on those likely “anti-nationals” who draw their strength from the service of alien nations more so the country that borders in the South.
Nepal Army’s strict vigilance is what is needed today if we were to keep Nepal’s territorial integrity and independent sovereignty intact from the ill intentions of those scoundrels who ever believe in the theory of expansionism.
It is time that the Nepal Army speaks and keeps informed the domestic population as to how it has been planning to save further land encroachment from the Indian side in points like Kalapani, Susta, Lipulek, Maheshpur and Tilathi in Saptari district.
Let’s admit that the landmass in Nepali Terai or say Madhesh is being safeguarded by the locl Madhesi leader and youths like Dev Narayan Yadav, Laila Khatun, and Adam Khan, to name a few.
Had these men and women were not sincere to their motherland, neither Tilathi nor Susta would have remained inside Nepal. Thanks these gentlemen and women that the country is safe as of now.
It is time for the Nepal Army to act and exhibit its uninterrupted loyalty for the motherland. Failing to do so would encourage others like Madhav Nepal and Dr.
Bhattarai to stab their own motherland.
And without any hesitance and reluctance, the energetic youths of the Terai/Madhesh should be recruited in the Nepal Army so that the youths living in these areas feel that they too were sons of the soil and serve the nation: Nepal to what they have been doing more efficiently than the Nepal Army personnel.
The message is loud and clear.
That’s all.
