Will there be an election?’ People are still asking skeptical questions about whether or not the election will be held on the date set for 21 Falgun. During a five-day visit to Madhesh Province and Koshi Province, familiar and unfamiliar people were not able to be confident that the election would be held even when the preparations for the election were nearing completion. Political parties are reaching the doorsteps of the people shouting slogans on the streets to fight the election. The government and its security agencies have already been deployed to make arrangements for voting. Madhesh is painted in the colors of the Holi festival during the election silence period. Should Holi festival be celebrated or not during the election silence period? This is a matter for the government and the Election Commission to think about. Will the Nepalis of Madhesh be ready to give up the joy of Holi for the election or not? This is a matter to think about.

After the new election for the House of Representatives was to be held on 21 Falgun, some ministers of the government resigned from their posts and entered active politics. This strange behavior of the ministers greatly damaged the reputation of the Karki government. The ministers whom Prime Minister Karki trusted left the government in an incredible manner after the peaceful settlement of the rebellion. In this way, the general public neither has much knowledge about why the election is being held, nor have the slogans of the leaders and workers participating in the election attracted them much. The people have not been able to take the election that came suddenly seriously. In the current situation, it is perhaps not natural for voters to be confused about the election. The election to be held on 21 Falgun, amidst the unstable mood and doubts of the general public, cannot solve the country's problems. There is no situation where voters can give their trust to any one or two political parties in the election. We have a distorted type of election system. Political parties are not focused on the issue of providing rice and blankets to the people. The constitution is mainly responsible for this issue. But the constitution alone is not responsible, we have not even moved towards the destination of the state that the constitution envisions.  

Amidst the complex situation created after the ‘peaceful’ movement of Gen-G in the latter half of Bhadra turned into a violent uprising, President Ram Chandra Poudel had to accept the resignation of the then Prime Minister KP Sharma Oli and dissolve the House of Representatives in a pressurised political situation. To create a comfortable situation in the country, the President had to form an interim government under the leadership of former Chief Justice Sushila Karki. However, some of the honorable ministers who were inducted into the Karki-led government left the government after some time. 

With the new elections for the House of Representatives to be held on 21 Falgun, some of the government ministers resigned from their posts and entered active politics. This strange behavior of the ministers has greatly damaged the reputation of the Karki government. The ministers whom Prime Minister Karki trusted left the government in an unbelievable manner after the peaceful end of the uprising.

Even now, the ordinary Nepali people, who are walking on the streets in a state of panic, have not been able to understand – what kind of political drama is being staged in the country again using Gen-G’s ordinary, but sensitive, uprising as an excuse? Why did another election come less than two years after one election in this poorest country? What was the reason that took the lives of the brave and unarmed citizens of this country? Why were the Singha Durbar and the Supreme Court burned? Why was the Parliament building burned? Why were so many young people killed? The election on 21 Falgun will neither be able to answer this question, nor will it be able to draw any logical conclusion about it. What will be the conclusions of the commission formed to investigate this incident? It is not difficult to guess. The fate of the conclusions of the commission formed to draw conclusions about the economic and political developments in the country will be buried in the archive with the announcement of the election results.

It is true that the results of this election, like the results of the previous elections, will not bring much change in the political and economic map of the country. We have heard the slogan of stopping political and economic abuse and eradicating corruption equally during the independent Panchayat period and the multi-party democracy period. However, due to the ‘personal’ character of the leaders of the political parties, these problems were transferred. The custom of wearing a ‘tunic according to the season’ among the ‘leaders’ and ‘heroes’ of our political stage never went away. The leaders who reached the leadership never failed to extol the ‘moral’ values ​​and norms prevailing in Nepali society. However, they themselves never followed those moral values ​​and norms. If there had been no deviation in the leadership of the political parties existing in the country, there would have been a vast improvement in the dire economic and material situation of Nepal. However, that never happened. The repeated deviations in the Congress and the Communist Party, the suppression of the Maoist People’s War and the violent movements that arose in Madhesh, and the disrespectful condition of the common citizen, did not allow the beginning of harmonious politics in the country.

The details of those who put guns on the shoulders of the young people who were active in the Gen-G movement of the latter half of Bhadra have been revealed. Some of the leaders of the conflict that erupted after the movement was snatched from the hands of Gen-G have already come out from the black screen. Prime Minister Karki has run the government by keeping both ‘Gen-G’ and ‘Frenzy’ in his circle. However, he himself may not be satisfied with his rule. Experienced political players are saying that the 21 Falgun election will be completely different from all the previous elections. However, this election cannot free the country from the crisis either. This election can change the face of the characters involved in politics. However, the country’s need is not to change faces, but to change characters. The current participation in politics is not based on values ​​and norms. Such an assumption can be easily made. 

It took a decade to draft the constitution of a republican Nepal. That constitution too could not be completely in favor of the people. This is the reason - after the republican constitution was drafted in 2072, the country's psyche was filled with incidents of political and economic abuse. The ‘directions’ of the 21 Falgun election are becoming clear through social media. The current era is not that of Alex de Tacville, the expounder of democratic values ​​and norms, but of social media. Tacville said that if democracy is left alone even a little, the behavior of the state will turn into a ‘liberal’ dictatorship. Because, the behavior of the state will depend on the will of the middlemen. Such behavior will be against the self-respect and freedom of the people in any case. The governments after the change in 2046 have not been able to respect the self-respect of the Nepali people. Those who tried to respect the people were sometimes defeated in elections and sometimes removed from the government in a humiliating manner. 

After the people's movement of 2062/63, Nepal entered a federal republic. After that, the leaders could not raise the people from the status of 'weeds'. They did not think of themselves as 'people's representatives', but as kings without a crown. In terms of political character, there was no line of inequality between the ruling and the rebels.  It took a decade to draft the constitution of a republican Nepal. That constitution too could not be completely in favor of the people. This is the reason – after the formation of the republican constitution in 2072, the country's psyche was filled with incidents of political and economic abuse.

For some time, Nepal has become a 'citadel' of social media. Social media has strengthened its role in the upcoming elections. Nepal's youth, who are earning their living and their families' livelihoods by working abroad, have been put in the shoes of leaders who escape from prison and sound the trumpet of revolution and 'character actors' who will radically change the situation of the country once they come to power. A kind of atmosphere has arisen in the country. However, no responsible leader has shown them the courage to tell them that the transformation of any state cannot be achieved by raising slogans through social media or NGOs.

There is an intellectual in the Indian state of Bihar – Prashant Kishor. He runs an NGO. Through that, he serves the people. He has earned a reputation. Some time ago, he launched his own party to participate in the provincial elections held in Bihar. As soon as the party was launched, surveys and 'fresh reports' that assured his victory started appearing on social media and newspapers. Some newspapers in Bihar even predicted the defeat of Chief Minister Nitish Kumar. However, Prashant Kishor's party did not work. Prashant Kishor was 'ringed out' from the democratic politics of the election.
