Emergency Meet: After Nepalgunj, It's Lahan

PM Girija Prasad Koirala, as well as the Maoist party (although Prachanda is not concerned with the rebellious groups), have called an all-party emergency meeting on Monday to discuss the continuing revolt in the south-east. In Lahan town, locals defied curfew imposed after a group of Maoists killed Ramesh Mahato, a 16-year-old school boy, who was part of the protest organized by Madheshi People's Rights Forum. Mahato is from the Madhesis community. In late December last year, a communal clash in Nepalgunj involving Pahades and Madhesis left one dead and scores injured. The political parties must hold serious dialogue pay attention to the demands of the rebelling group. If the violent Maoists could be rewarded with parliamentary seats and impunity on their past atrocities, others must at least get their fair share as citizens of the country.
