We can never guarantee that we will not compromise with any quarter as long as we are doing politics. Circumstances can compel us to make minor compromises. Even the Maoists, who claim to be more radical than us, have discussed a symbolic, ceremonial or Cambodia-like king. Other communist parties that chant republican slogans have somehow adjusted to the institution of the monarchy. But all these compromises will be short-lived. The longterm policy and ideal of the Nepali Congress is the people's democracy. We have clearly stated this in our constitution-nationalism, democracy and socialism. I don't see any possibility of foreign intervention due to conflicts between the internal forces in our country. We believe rather that the more intensive the movement becomes, the less likely foreign intervention will be. The irony in our country is that those who are influential deliberately invite foreign interventions for their vested interests. It was the king's move that invited foreign intervention. But the People's Movement will keep such interference at bay. If a foreign power joins hands with Nepalis for democracy that cannot be termed as intervention. Gone are the times when others could say nothing while feudal kings committed all kinds of atrocities. Today we have the United Nations and many international organisations working for democracy and human rights. The king talks about globalisation so he should understand that politics is not an exception to globalisation. It is folly to say that democracy has different kinds of models. Even a layman understands that democracy is built upon an essential cornerstone-the supreme authority of the people. It is the supremacy of the people that has been sidelined now and whatever system has been introduced does not fall within the democratic model.
