		Hence, all the perversions in politics and the parliament and in the conduct of individual MPs who sometimes give an impression that they are unaware of the shift that has taken place in the political dispensation from party less to a party system.
		Formation of the parliament committed to the cause of good governance, transparency and the code of conduct as expected by the electorate will also be a significant step towards the incorporation of the system accountable to the sovereign people and their constitution.

	5 Questions The Telegraph - Weekly (Nepal)
		Nepal’s visit and his meeting with Maoists leaders in Lucknow gave a "clear" message to the international community that Maoists are given shelter in the Indian soil and India is also a part of the problem.
		Nepal would have talked with the Maoist leaders in Nepalese soil because the Maoists were labeled as terrorists both in India and Nepal and virtually there was no difference in holding talks with them by being right inside our own territory.
		Thirdly, as the political parties including the larger ones, are divided in their opinions regarding the reinstating of the now dissolved parliament in Nepal, the non-political solution of the problem (through apex court) might be non-disputable and acceptable to all.
