This could prove to be an ominous start of a long, cold winter of continued conflict. Rolpa, Rukum, Salyan and Jajarkot are all “Category-A” Maoist strongholds by the government’s classification and hence the concentra- tion of forces there. Government presence in the district headquarters meant that it could show a semblance of control by keeping the national flag flying above the Chief District Officer’s building. The Deputy Prime Minister and Home Minister flew in and out on helicopters on largely symbolic visits to denounce terrorism. Everyone knew that the Maoists roamed freely in the hinterland. They had their own administration, collectives and courts in place. It was convenient to pretend everything was normal. Dunai is a remote, poor and sparsely populated town four hours’ walk from the nearest airfield. It was vulnerable, and the firefight seems to have been short and bloody. But the attack has sent a significant symbolic message: the solution STATE OF THE STATE by C.K.LAL to the Maoist crisis lies in Kathmandu not in western Nepal. The Maoist leadership is just taking advantage of petty politicking between factions of the ruling party and between the rulers and the opposition. Then there is the lingering and potentially destabilising struggle Freedom to be irresponsible between Singha Durbar and Narayanhiti for supremacy. The friction between the Royal Nepal e may not be shooting the The three branches of government are Army and the Police is just the messenger yet, but messengers outward manifestation of this www are getting enough hints from ganging up against the fourth estate.

  • Groundwater Research in NEPAL for Tiger Conservation
    GROUNDWATER RESEARCH IN NEPAL FOR TIGER CONSERVATION A reconnaissance study to groundwater dynamics in an alluvial mega-fan in Bardiya National Park (Terai), focusing on the interaction between groundwater and the Karnali river. Author: Hanne. Berghuis. MSc. Thesis. Program: Earth, Surface and Water at Utrecht University. 1st Supervisor: Prof. Dr. Jasper Griffioen. 2nd Supervisor: Dr. Derek Karssenberg. Date: 28-06-2019. Student No.: 6190987. Contact: [email protected]. Photo credits: Esther Leystra (2019). Nepal: Bardiya National Park. Acknowledgement I’d like to thank my supervisor Jasper Griffioen for the opportunity to hydrologically explore Bardiya. His enthusiasm for the project was inspiring and his close involvement was very motivating. My friend Ewa van Kooten introduced me to this project. Together we travelled to Nepal for three months. Thanks to her I enjoyed every single day of our time in Bardiya. She often came up with new ideas for field measurements, creative ways to fabricate field equipment or interpretations for unexpected observations. I am grateful for the Himalayan Tiger Foundation (HTF), who took the initial initiative for hydrological research in Bardiya. I very much appreciate their efforts for the conservation of the wild tiger. During the meetings in the Netherlands and around the campfire in Bardiya with the members and co of HTF, I have learned and laughed a lot. Moreover, I like to thank them for getting us in touch with the National Trust for Nature Conservation (NTNC). The staff of NTNC heartily welcomed us in Bardiya and at their office. They made us feel like a part of the NTNC-family by letting us join their festivals, dinners and campfires.

Should Gen Katawal step down as the Maoist secretariat decided to Chief of Army Staff? Mayday, Total votes: 8,180 go ahead with its plan to “take action” against Army Chief Gen Rookmangud Katawal. It couldn’t have been otherwise. The Maoists had painted Mayday! themselves into a corner by Weekly Internet Poll # 450. To vote go to: www.nepalitimes.com making this a make-or-break Q. What is your opinion about the prestige issue. federalism? Prime Minister Pushpa Kamal Dahal was squeezed by pressure from India and political parties on the one hand, and from his hardline rank-and-file on the other. It was becoming clear that the internal pressure was much stronger. In a way, “taking action” could mollify his cadre, and that process could be allowed to drag on to appease Delhi and the parties. The other compromise worked out by the UML is to start with a clean slate by getting Katawal, the Maoist favourite Gen Kul Bahadur Khadka and Defence Minsiter Ram Bahadur Thapa to step down. The proposal is still on the cards, although the Maoists reject Thapa’s ouster and the NC rejects Katawal’s. But under a “wholesale” deal, the Maoists are trying to woo the NC to join the government in return for agreeing to Katawal’s removal. Sujata Koirala appears to be a contender, even though NC leaders Sher Bahadur Deuba and others are said to be strongly against her.
