Accept the power of youths
I fully support the dialogue “Youths had played important role for the success of people’s movement II so they deserve special focus” by Dr. Ram Hari Aryal “Changing Dynamism” (June 30). This is very right to say because without them the success was impossible. Therefore, first of all their problems need to be solved before other problems including the process of constitutional Assembly. Ignoring the problems of youth would put the whole process into uncertainty. In this course, all the development programs, which are of interests to the youths, have been sidelined. This may cause adverse effect on them. If youths are again ignored, that will lead to instability in the country.

Concentrate On Youths
Youths are the foundation upon which nation states are built. If such base is not made strong, the nation could easily crumble. Nepal, which has a high growth rate and where the younger people dominate the entire population, needs more care and attention. This will also guide the destination of the nation. “Changing Dynamism” (June 30) raised very genuine and serious problems about the youths, which need to be eliminated as far as possible. The problems like illiteracy, dropouts from primary level, unemployment, in turn, make youths start working from early age despite their desire to continue their studies. Consequently, anomalies like depressions and frustrations emerge in the mind of youths and the country can’t move ahead at its will. Until and unless this newly formed government does not bring a new package for the youths, this problem is not going to be solved automatically. Moreover, the concerned people should not forget that these youths are the power of the nation who can bring about a drastic change through demonstration. They are also the permanent force for political and economic instability. They were involved in the People’s Movement II to make their dreams come true. And to resolve the problems of the youths like unemployment, illiteracy and so on. They will not remain silent if their concerns and interests are not addressed by the newly formed government.

Show in practice
Instead of visiting political party leaders to reduce the controversies over the eight point pact announced after the last summit meeting they (Maoist leaders) would better show their commitment in their attitude by practically implementing their promise “Building Confidence” (June 30).

Grateful to OCE
The Office of the Controller of Examination has done a laudable job (June 30) by making access to the result of SLC easier. I would personally like to thank them for the convenient arrangements made for the SLC examinees especially for the examinees residing out of valley.

Be Human First
One should not be total money minded even if he/ she may be businessperson. Because before he/ she is businessperson, they first are human beings. Therefore, they should not go against social ethics, which has negative impact on the society. Therefore, we should seriously think about the issue raised by Maoist leader Dev Gurung in the article “Economy: Maoist Perspective” (June 30) about not promoting industries like alcohol, tobacco and cola drinks because they are against the interest of society. Every one involved in such business should be stopped. And the state should adopt strong policies to control such industries, and such investment should be directed towards productive sector.

Do Not Repeat History
To resolve Maoist problems and other social issues, one needs to eliminate the demarcation line between the urban and rural areas (June 30). Because this is the main, cause which breeds a number of problems. The urban youths benefit from all kinds of facilities whereas rural people are far away from the reach of even traditional facilities. This is one reason why people in rural areas got alienated and were attracted towards the Maoists. Therefore, the current government should learn from the past and not repeat the history.

Good Option for Employment
The interview with Dr. Ram Hari Aryal (June 30) raised a valid point that the utilization of current trend of labor migration was beneficial to the country. Since there is a huge demand for Nepalese labor in the international market, it would obviously benefit them individually and the country will also enjoy by way of increasing remittance that would, in turn, increase the Gross National Disposable Income (GNDI).

Greatest Leader of the Region
I wish to ask the Indian friend of Girija P. Koirala to identify himself to the Nepalese public and substantiate his statement that “Koirala is the greatest leader of the region” (Spotlight, Editors Note 23/6/06). Merely making such statement is foolish unless proven by true facts and figures and actual accomplishments, but not on idle gossip.

Nepal’s National Anthem
Why there is such a big hullabaloo about a new national anthem for Nepal? When the political leaders and the Prime Ministers of Nepal run to New Delhi for consultation, advice and final orders. Can Nepal not get her national anthem too from the Indians? For the time being. Nepal can borrow – Jana, Gana, Mana and ahen the Indians give a new one, Nepal can adopt it. This will make the Indians happy and all the India lovers in Nepal too.
