The current governmentlessness on the one hand, and uncertainty over the formation of the future government, has already begun hitting the country and the people. There is acute shortage of food while the fuel crisis, largely because of Nepal’s huge arrears to the Indian Oil Corporation, has hit the country’s economy. India’s policy of stopping export of cement and steel has affected construction activities. People’s discontent is palpable. All these only put pressure on the Maoists: They must become more flexible, conciliatory and pragmatic and less radical if they want to form the government and run it too.
