Army sources say the emergency was imposed to bring the Maoists under control. The main reason the Maoists became active was the misrule and corruption that had spread to all sectors. The army is said to be preparing to take action against such elements as well. All eyes are on those who have amassed enormous wealth after democracy and the army is also said to be preparing to bring the corrupt to justice. The army is said to have a list of suspects (big political names) and is on the lookout for ways to bring them to justice. As soon as Girija Prasad Koirala got wind of this, he put forward the idea of forming a Democratic Alliance. All major political parties are now giving this serious thought. Koirala has said that to form this alliance and make it work he is even willing to put aside his party's majority in parliament. He has been in touch with the leader of the main opposition UML, Madhav Nepal, and the two, who were sworn enemies not so long ago, have agreed on the issue.
