There is an increased number of resurgences within this nation and overseas. As they are on the ground level, even the common people can easily recognize their shape, pretense, appearance and cadres. For the first time, such foggy malady scene is staged on by NRN America in the name of celebrating 'Prithi Jayanti'. In fact, NRN America and their leaders have publicized such regressive and posterior views. Now such bad intension is clear to all although they try to cover it with different simulations. Holding the ground of the difficult situation that the neighboring country, India had blocked on the boarders, now in Nepal, a practice of nationalism can be seen in practice just being in Nepali dress.
In this game directors from distance, the alliances opposing federalism, democracy and secularism, seem so active. Whoever is there in the front line, monarchial dreaming incarnation of Bishnu, Congresses spellbound with Hinduism of General Secretary, Shashank Koirala, and cadres of Oli against federalism, all are active in abroad here. These three who had different directions in the past, now have made a good connection. Their inherent objective is neither class struggle nor ideology, but racism; and on the ground of racialism, they are ruling over.
NRN, America has sunk in disputes and though has just stepped a step ahead, is not free from any debates. Organizing a social interaction program with Nepali laborious son, Mahabir Pun, NRN America has done a great, relevant and contemporary progressive task that has made feel proud to we all Nepalese migrants and the members of NRN to some extent, but within some days and hours, the supporters of regressive unitary government system and racist have decided to mark ‘Prithvi Jayanti’ leading and in coordination with some other organizations. As it is said, “Leaving main goal aside, heading to other side to Jackson Height”, and thinking that they can capture our common organization politically, it is clear that they have made a plan to make NRN weaker and useless.
Thrusting dozens of prior subjects aside, they are being used as the dice of regression. The government of the USA has renewed the TPS status of Nepal for more 18 months. Our Nepalese clients are being charged with high fee and cheated, but the stakeholders are facing back to this problem. As present executive committee has got only one-forth tenure of time, the leaders are traveling different countries in the name of Town Hall. Though they yell throughout whole life to build temples, they are putting a net of community building in the name of upcoming election.
Every person has the inborn and independent right of politics based on ideology. Each Nepali has a freedom of right on whether to celebrate Prithvi Jayanti or not. I fully respect that opinion which allows them express their views freely. Is it justifiable to the organizations like NRN to lead such controversial practices? This is a great question to be raised. If another group proposes to mark the day of Lakhan Thapa, the first martyr of Nepal, will this executive committee agree? If it becomes possible, then is the role of NRN only to celebrate celebrations, anniversaries and festivals in abroad? Even there are complains that NRN is not working on the subject matters, queries and issues related to our working field in abroad.
Talking in this way, the decision to mark ‘Prithvi Jayanti’, we should not misunderstand this as a sudden decision with force and compulsion. Now we have to have a micro-analysis of their goals, behavior and ideological alliances. If the supporters of independency and freedom cannot stop to such regressive plan and conspiracy in time, pretending of weaker nationalism they will organize the program having Gyanendra Shah as chief guest. There are many sister organizations and cadres to support the parties and to organize such programs; and they have been doing so. But NRN should not keep such small tasks on priority, I insist.
Which, where and when did the meeting decide such controversial decision? And we have to supervise on how the leadership realizes and makes it clear to all members of NRN systematically. Each member has the right of ‘Right to Know’ as written in ordination / code of conducts. Therefore, the present leadership and executive committee of NRN America dare to apologize with proofs written on paper and try to correct themselves. And all Nepali migrants and the members of NRN should be conscious to break such regressive plans.
