    Problem of Nepali leaders in each Generation having similar attitude , they demonstrate them self as ruler, in fact they are public representative to provide
    mass services. In modern time conscious sovereign citizen acquired more information about their back ground and potential,media make concern naked like the Emperor in famous story, ” Emperor ‘s new clothes”. this is key reason leaders differ in opinion even on Guinean Cases. They weave many way but reality comes in different , Now only one way balance to dubbed Republican to be
