What Ails Our Loktantra ?

More than 18 years have elapsed since democracy was reinstated in 2006 following the collapse of king Gyanendra’s 14-month direct rule in the country. The April Uprising that is also called Janaandolan-II (second people’s movement), paved the way for the transformative structural changes. The Himalayan nation was converted into a secular, federal republic, abolishing the 204-year-old monarchy. The new constitution promulgated through the Constituent Assembly (CA) consolidated these landmark achievements.
