Image: ChatGPT/Read 2B Happy A grand plot against Sudan Gurung’s resignation By LB Thapa As Home Minister, Sudan Gurung took an aggressive stand against corrupt individuals, brokers, and middlemen. Young, energetic, and bold, his swift actions against corruption left wrongdoers restless and fearful.   Sudan Gurung also initiated a thorough judicial inquiry into some of the country’s most prominent business houses—the very same entities that had previously caused significant trouble for former Home Minister Rabi Lamichhane. These business tycoons soon turned their attention to Sudan Gurung.

Whether it is KP Oli, Sher Bahadur Deuba, or anyone else, they must all taste the fruit of their own actions. Many VIPs, believing they were protected by a corrupt government, thought themselves immune to the laws of the nation. But they forgot that karma will find them when their pot is full of sin.

Image: ChatGPT/Read 2B HaPPY   Is Nepal quietly rewriting its foreign policy? By LB Thapa In recent days, many political pundits have begun discussing the changed attitude of Nepal's new government. The government's working style has already made a positive impression on the Nepali people. This shift is visible and palpable across nearly every governmental and non-governmental sector.   A rather unusual scene unfolded in the recent past when Nepal's newly elected Prime Minister, Balen Shah—a political outsider and the youngest person to hold the office—made a move that is raising eyebrows across the region. Instead of holding conventional one-on-one diplomatic meetings, he invited 17 ambassadors together for a single, coordinated interaction. The envoys represented India, China, the United States, Japan, Gulf nations, and even the United Nations. Such a gathering had never been organized in Nepal's political history.   This was a calculated move by Prime Minister Balen ...

Nepal’s delicate balancing act: Challenges of dealing with China and India By  LB Thapa Rastriya Swatantra Party (RSP) left all major political parties in Nepal astonished by securing nearly a two-thirds majority in the general election.

  How the US destroys, loots and destabilizes peaceful countries By LB Thapa The American strategy of destabilizing any sovereign nation is a well-thought-out and deadly blueprint, tested over time and executed successfully. It consists of four stages. The first stage involves economic blockade and isolation policies. When any country challenges the US dollar policy, that country is subjected to severe sanctions, trade bans, and asset freezes, crippling its economy.  After this, when the citizens of that country are oppressed by scarcity and inflation, they become angry with their government. At this point, the second stage begins: information warfare and internal rebellion. Under the guise of media and non-governmental organizations, propaganda is spread internationally against that country’s strict political system.   At this time, US intelligence agencies play a double game. On one hand, they work to turn peaceful protests into armed civil war by providing weapons and...

  KNOW THE FACT Has the case of Oli and Lekhak really concluded? By  LB Thapa Former Prime Minister and CPN-UML Chairman KP Sharma Oli, after being released following the Supreme Court’s mandamus, has claimed in a Facebook status that he was freed because no grounds were found to prosecute him. If Oli’s claim is accepted, it would mean this case has ended here. But has the case of Oli and Ramesh Lekhak, who were arrested on the recommendation of the Karki Commission, really concluded?  On March 26, the elected lawmakers took their oaths. Then, on March 27, after Balen Shah took the oath of office as Prime Minister from the president, other ministers also took their oaths the same day. Immediately after the oath, the first cabinet meeting decided to implement the report of the Karki Commission, which was formed to investigate the Gen-Z movement, as it is, except for the security apparatus. Right after that decision, on the night of March 27, the Ministry of Home Affair...
