Heartiest Congratulations to all Nepalese...!!!

We extend our heartfelt compliments to the Nepalese on their historic victory over subservient Indians after a long and tortuous journey that followed a trail of ardent protest and suffering, building hopes upon despair, allegations upon counter allegations, and sometime culminating in gruesome deaths.

We , the Bengalis browbeaten and humiliated as ever have little choice but to join the bandwagon of merry revellers that seek to take on to the streets like young boys in high spirit getting to taste their first puff of cigarette oblivious of the dangers ahead.

It has been a litany of political blunders initiated by the myopic Jawaharlal Nehru who couldn’t really do away with his legendary tailcoat dependence on the British and so grossly overlooked the interests of the people of India, especially Bengalis ( he was so hateful of owing to Subhas Bose ) in his visionary zeal to further a servile foreign policy, ‘panchsheel’ and paved the way for the Nepalese to enter India on the strength of Indo-Nepal Treaty, 1950.

Thus taking advantage of the India’s wimpish and lackadaisical foreign policy coupled with disarrayed socio-economic and political machinery with their internal contradictions, the Nepalese (without any military confrontation) literally infiltrated into India over the years targeting the soft spot, North Bengal, showing great restrain and sufferance, and in the process becoming both a symbol of inspiration and opportunism to others to follow suit.

And there build an onslaught which none seemed to care or restrain and it finally resulted in Political consciousness on the part of these foreigners who now very defiantly considered themselves legal citizen of India. They were justifiably strong in their contention as they found themselves being inducted into army and various paramilitary forces, which strengthened their claim that they cherish a tradition of sacrifice for India.

Under these circumstances, it was not their unfounded interest that remained the question of debate in the international circles but it began to draw vigilant appraisal of neighbouring countries especially China, which got into meticulous and long term strategy based upon the developments in the spiralling aspiration brewing amongst these Nepalese.

 Needless to say, China that always followed a well-thought and chalked out policy in line with the ideas of a visionary leader like Mao Tse Tung was quick to vest its interest in reaping political mileage on the international arena, augmenting to a great extent its clout over the South Asian countries (including the SAARC countries) gaining vantage position and greater negotiating capacity with an eye on the future.

For a country as great as China, it is a pragmatic approach to safeguarding its national and international interests and to ensure steady progress of its great people by making prudent use of extant political opportunities available near and far. So if China plays its part loud and clear in the long run shouldn’t raise too many questing eyes as it would be rather unusual on its part in doing otherwise.

Hence, the Gorkhaland Treaty is all the more historic in the sense that these dubious foreigners by means of sporadic violence and high handed tactics have won a war against a so called Powerful Nation, a clumsy oaf who they can’t stand in an out and out war.
