Indian intervention Unacceptable in Nepal's internal domestic affairs

Nepal has promulgated new Constitution on September 20, 2015. The Constitution was promulgated by Constituent Assembly-2 where members from all parties of Nepal were elected by people. The Constitution has been welcomed by many counties but India - Nepal's closest neighbour - has given a cold reception.

India has even gone a step further and has released the list of amendments via Media. It has made its intention clear that Nepal can not act independently. Any sovereign act of Nepal will be uncontrolled by India - the message clearly says.

For not welcoming Nepal's Constitution, India has given a reason that Nepal has failed to accommodate the widest possible consensus on the Constitution of Nepal as many people from the plains are not happy with the Constitution. The people from the plains are agitating and therefore, Constitution is not perfect, as per India.

Thereby, India has clearly given a signal that it supports the myriad demands raised by People of the plain even without going into the merits of each demand. It has further sent a message to Nepalese People that it treats Nepal like an another state of India. This is a pathetic and lowly behavior from India and is completely unacceptable to Nepal.

After the news of India's unwelcome of the Constitution of Nepal and further seven demands on Constitutional amendments, Nepalese have trended #BackoffIndia in Twitter. They have clearly given the message that India's interference in Nepal's domestic affairs are completely unacceptable and can not be taken lightly. Since Constitution of Nepal is for Nepalese People, is for people of Nepal, India has no business to suggest us what kinds of provisions should be written in the Constitution. In this context, this blog joins with the millions of the people in Nepal to suggest that India should stay away from Nepal's domestic and internal affairs and any intervention is not at all, acceptable to patriotic Nepalese people.

India's Prime Minister Narendra Modi had tried to create a new relationship with Nepal and he must bestow the value to such relationship by his actions and not by mere words. Words without being backed up by solid deeds will soon sound hollow and India and Narendra Modi must do good for the stability in South Asia by staying away from Nepal's internal affairs.
