SAVE LIVES, BE HONEST FOR THE PEOPLE

In the chaotic political atmosphere, normal people in western Nepal again are going to suffer by the same curse they had last year. Recently  the death of 16 people in the remote districts of western Nepal by an unidentified disease however similar to cholera epidemic indicates the intrusion of unwanted repeating history. The political weather in Kathmandu is perishing with so called people’s rebellion. Have had a little review of past several years, which political parties did something for the poor and very unfortunate people of western Nepal? In the 21^st century, unfortunately people from western part of Nepal still have to experience the medieval situation where a few elites rule over millions of people with baseless logics in the means of so-called institions such as political parties. The sad truth is that these political parties only need poor people whenever it is necessary to warm up demonstrations.

Health experts have already warned of possible reoccurance of a massive catestrophy caused by epidemics. Clean, hygienic water is the first thing to prevent such catestrophy however, enough homework is not done on how to make smooth and clean water supply to these people. There are corruptions everywhere in Nepali bureaucratic channels which suck the blood of people. Billions of rupees flow in the name of poverty alleviation. Many bilateral loans are changed into grants, the situation has not changed though. Calculating the loans and grants into per capita, every Nepali individual  should have been rich enough to live a comfortable life.

Although  the state receives a huge loans and grants, out of which more than fifty percent of amount goes back to the donors through different invisible channels such foreign consultants, use of products from donor country , hardly 10 percent grants reach to the people at grass root level. If the projects such as clean drinking water supply, awareness of food and hygiene could be implemented honestly we can prevent water generating epidemics in order to save further lives.
