The culmination of the Comprehensive Peace Agreement was also founded on the aspiration of the 19 day-long 'peoples movement'. It is obvious that the Comprehensive Peace Agreement (CPA) raised expectation among people towards peaceful political transition with forward-looking strategies and restructuring of the state while duly honoring the sacrifice of thousands Nepalese people and embracing the voices of the victims. Since the blueprint itself was not guarantee of the attainment of lasting peace, the effective and honest implementation of the peace accord in both letter and spirit is highly desirable for meaningful change. Unfortunately, soon after the CPA was signed, series of incidences of non-compliance occurred. -

Tel: 977-1-4211189, 4211172, 4211173, 4211092 Fax: 977-1-4211186 and 4211173 E-mail: [email protected] Url: www.peace.gov.np Printed by: Department of Printing Ministry of Information and Communications Government of Nepal It is necessary to understand that conflict is inherent to any human society and occurs with its own dynamics. The conflict if managed positively can provide basis for human development and civilization and if it is left to grow in its own way, it can bring a great deal of pain. As already experienced, failure of the last two peace negotiations talks between the Government and the Maoists have resulted in further escalation of the violence-led damages with increasing intensity of mutually hurting stalemate, causing enormous physical and psychological pains due to loss of valuable human and material resources of the nation. With the kind of the socio-economic resource base and geo-political conditions as they are, Nepal cannot afford to go on with conflict and urgent action is needed to resolve it. And at the same time, it is also necessary to respond to the historical and structural causes of the conflict so that a durable peace can be attained. In April, 2006, the SPA declared pro-democratic movement and after the 19-day long popular and historical uprising, the power to the people has been transferred on 24 April, 2006. -

After the adoption of a federal structure, provincial ministries and other transitional institutions under their jurisdiction were gradually established. The task of managing employees at the provincial level through employee integration was also at its final phase. Offices under the provinces had begun their functioning. Each province was in the process of reshaping the existing transitional arrangement made by the federal government regarding their administrative structure and employee management to meet their particular needs. The functioning of the provincial institutions would lead to the stability of provinces.
