Politics in Nepal is not so interesting for everybody. Politicians are not so much educated in Nepal. Educated persons do not want to enter politics here. They take it as dirty game.
Many politicians in Nepal are corrupted. Very few politicians serve for nation in true manner or honestly. They use politics in negative way. They use power to do bad things. People hate politicians in Nepal.
These days politicians are very selfish in Nepal. They only think benefit for self or for only party. They can’t think of national benefit. Thesedays politicians have to choose Prime minister as no party has got majority. But from last 2 & half months, they are unable to choose PM. Every party wants PM of his own party. In this way parties can not come together. They have huge responsible of making constitution within one year. But they are not even able to choose PM till yet.
To make constitution, two third majority is needed. And they are not coming together. In this way, Nepal is going into big trouble. Of this situation remains for long time and do not make constitution in time, Nepal may go to civil war also. These days they are many small, big groups in Nepal. They are very opportunities. For self benefit, they can do or crime also or make other do anything.
However if one good politician (leader) burns in Nepal, he can turn Nepal from developing to developed country.
People from outside the valley are coming to Kathmandu for education, job opportunities, for modern technology facilities etc. They get a living easier then their villages. They get also a lot of opportunities here than outside valley. Some come here for higher education there is not good Universities outside. But people of Kathmandu are going foreign countries for education, job and career opportunities.
Due to transportation development, now Kathmandu is easily accessible to every part of country. They come here, sell their goods & return home. Villages have become empty these days. You can find very male in village these days. They are either in Kathmandu, India or have gone to aboard to earn money. People once come to Kathmandu and they do not return home. They do any work here and they do not wanna return home because they can earn money for living here. But In village they can not. Living in harder in village.
But Kathmandu is not easy place to live in. There is a lot of competition there. People can’t get job easily. Goods are very expensive. Hiring rooms are very expensive. Prices of land are also increasing rapidly. However people from all over the country are coming here for bright future as it is the capital city and for many people it is the dream place.
These days Traffic problem is major problem in Kathmandu. Specially at office time, it becomes huge. If you exit from home to go to any your destination, you have to leave before half to one hr. to reach in time. If the president or any VIP persons (Prime Minister) go anywhere,traffic police stop the vehicles before about an hr., that makes traffic jam in Kathmandu for hrs.
In Kathmandu. Vehicles have increased a lot in last 20 years. But roads have not been expanded accordingly. Also Kathmandu is the capital city of Nepal. As many facilities are here, many people from all over the country come here for education, business., traveling, for government services, work etc. Most of people from village are migrating to the city as there is no development in villages.
So Kathmandu is becoming very crowd place. Government is also planning to shift Capital city(Kathmandu ) to outside the valley. They are also making international airport outside valley. Universities, Banks & different development projects are also going outside valley. In this way, people, people may be less crowded in future as there also becomes opportunities outside. And Kathmandu becomes less polluted and becomes worth living place.
