India Nepal Relation: Increasing Rate of Decreasing Support (6 November 2015)

Nepal and Bhutan are the neighbours with whom India has a minimum dispute. However, nowadays all is not well with Indo-Nepal relations. Since the independence of India, both countries have mutual collaborations in several areas but in the last six months, there is significant fluctuation in their overall relationship. One of the reasons for the present situation is the newly constituted Nepali Constitution.

Madheshi is a tribe of Nepal who dwells in the Terai area. There are close relations with the Madhesi and Indian people. Also because there is no formal boundary between India and Nepal so it constitutes more affinity even conjugal affinity. For the last two months, Madheshi tribes are protesting for getting significant recognition(in the form of reservation) in the new constitution. During this unrest, the supply of petroleum and other daily use commodities got stuck at the India-Nepal border. The representative of the new communist Nepal government, in the leadership of K P Sharma Oli, stated in UNO that India is indirectly supporting the agitation and blockading the commodities. 

During the April 2015 earthquake, India helped Nepal extensively. They reached up to the remote areas of Nepal to save the citizens. However, in the current situation, India also seems in an offensive mood. That could be seen in the recent event when India raised its voice in the Human Rights Commission in the favor of Madeshis. Although Indian foreign secretary Vikas Swaroop is optimistic about the recent developments in Indo-Nepal relation yet as instead of bilateral dialogue, both countries are raising issues in international forums, it does not seem so.

गंवई पंचाइत

एक बार फिनौ पंचाइत के, पुरवा के लोग इकट्ठा बा  बियहा एकड़ के बात नाइ, दावन पे एक एक लाट्ठा बा  आबादी चक तो सुलटि जाय, पर मसला यहिं के पट्टा बा ।।  यहि पुरवा के कुलि प्राणिन के, एक दूसरे से मन खट्टा बा  केउ सुनत नाइ सब खोलि रहे, दुसरे के कच्चा चिट्ठा बा ।।  कानूनगो अउ लेखपाल, समझाई भयेन अरु गयें हारि भागेन दुइनौ जन घर अपने, मसला परधान के तरे डारि ।।  परधान और कुछ पंच लगे, तब सुनइ कुलिन के कान पारि कउनो के मसला घर दुआर, कउनो के झंझट अहइ सारि केउ कहे की वो बेईमान हैन, ऊ कहै वो हमका देहें मारि ।।  पुरवा के कटका धिंगरी से, परधानौ तब ई गयेन समझि  परधान और पंचाइत से, इ बात कबहुँ पाए ना सुलझि पद बोले से सब मनिहैं न, अउ मसला जाये और उलझि ।।  एकर दुइयै पैराया बा, या तो आपस में लेईं बूझि  नाहित दौरें तहसीली में, अउ कगजेन से सब लेइँ जूझि ।।  © अमित तिवारी (ये रचना 9 जुलाई 2021 को लिखी गयी। कल 8 जुलाई 2021 को गांव की ही एक पंचायत में जाने का मौका मिला, ये कविता उसी घटनाक्रम का कलमबद्ध रूपांतरण है। आज भी गाँवों में पंचायते होती हैं लेकिंन अधिकांश में परिस्थितियां उपरिलिखित पंक्तियों जैसी ही होती हैं

A Casual Visit

Image
Recently, on June 4th 2022, I got a chance to visit my friend Anand Kumar Singh at his home, which is located in Singhpur village of Payagpur Tashsil, District Baharaich. We had planned to meet in Delhi, his temporary address, when he was preparing for the UPSC civil services exam. But since in the recent development he got Rank 206 in UPSC 2021 and secured the position for IAS, also he was very much demanded by his natives consequently he had to return to his home at Baharaich, and as pre-planned, I went to meet him at his home. My home is at Malikpur Nonara Village of Kadipur Tahsil, District Sultanpur. Even though We both belong to the Awadh region of Uttar Pradesh, it is not so easy to travel to each other's homes using public transport. Our houses are around 200 Kms far from each other, but it took about 7-8 hours for me to reach his home this time. I visited Akbarpur (Ambedkarnagar) on my bike, and then I got a bus for Ayodhya, followed by a bus from Ayodhya to Gonda and a bu
