A big mess in politics in November

A big mess in politics in November

Kathmandu, 17 December. The possibility of a major upheaval in the country’s politics has increased after the meeting of the House of Representatives was called for 28 December. On the one hand, there is great power to remove Chief Justice Cholendra Shamsher Jabra, on the other hand, the US-backed MCC war is raging. Now the case of Jabra and MCC is almost certain to be used as a political card.

Prachanda himself has revealed that Jabra’s case is of interest not only within the country but also to external forces. He called the court’s case “a matter of concern to the UN.” He said that even external forces put pressure on him. The issue of MCC is also linked to external forces. America wants to pass. Another power, China, is coming up with issues to stop the MCC.

Despite the appearance of party leaders on the surface, the US is becoming like China versus China in Nepal’s politics. The two powers are trying to increase each other’s influence. Now the parliament is taking many decisions which can take politics in a new direction.

Although Prachanda and Madhav Nepal are not open, they are showing an inner role to remove Chief Justice Jabra. The face of the Bar movement also makes that clear. Law practitioners close to Prachanda and Madhav Nepal are at the forefront of the movement. On the other hand, these two leaders are not in favor of passing the same as the MCC.The United States has set a deadline of 28 December. Now it can go to the table in Parliament. However, Speaker Agni Prasad Sapkota is also getting involved in this issue. His role is essential to make a decision to the MCC. However, Sapkota is not positive towards MCC. He said a month ago that there should be a national consensus on MCC or consensus within the coalition. However, no agreement has been reached.

The case of Arjun Lama’s murder against Speaker Sapkota is under consideration in the court. It is like a sword hanging over his head. Speaker Sapkota wants to overcome this. However, the issue is stuck in the court. That is why Jabra’s case and MCC are being linked from different angles.
Now, if there is an agreement within the ruling coalition about the MCC, in the case of Jabra, any decision can be made as per the wishes of the parties within the coalition. However, if the constituents of the alliance are not ready to pass the MCC, another development may take place.

However, if the constituents of the alliance are not ready to pass the MCC, another development may take place. The star of my indictment may cross. The alliance is also likely to break down.

The United States has not congratulated KP Sharma Oli, who was re-elected as UML president. The congratulations given to Oli by the United States, which does not want to hear the name of a communist, have a diplomatic meaning. The case of MCC and Jabra is developing an environment that can create a new environment. The possibility of a major political upheaval in the country has increased. That too within November.
