What would be more shameful than being made fool by the person one has elected?
That is what is happening in Nepal, and it has already been the 16th time the one, and the only one candidate for the post of Prime Minister, Nepali Congress leader Ram Chandra Poudel, has been defeated in the election. He was left alone in the never winning race since Maoist Chairman, Puspa Kamal Dahal, withdrew his candidacy after realizing the infinite loop the election was going through.
There is a single candidate who won’t win and won’t give-up the election. The top leader of Nepali Congress, Ram Chandra Poudel, was defeated for the 14th time in an election held at the parliament on Friday.
Poudel is alone in the race for the post of Prime Minister. Ram Chandra Poudel was left alone in the race when Maoist Chairman, Puspa Kamal Dahal, withdrew his candidacy after realizing the infinite loop the election has fallen into. Poudel is trying to cash in the ‘opportunity’ by not-giving-up the race, that he
is never going to win. In the election vote for Poudel were 96 and 2 were casted against him. Next election will be held after three days.
It is everybody’s guess that the shameful bargaining tactics being practiced by the leaders will have a long-term impact on their political character.
Even after one of the two contestants for the post of Prime Minister, UCPN (Maoist) Chairman Pushpa Kamal Dahal, has finally pulled himself out from the prime ministerial race another candidate, Ram Chandra Paudel of Nepali Congress (NC), refused to give up.
What is more strange is that the sole candidate, Poudel, failed to secure majority yet again in the eighth round of voting on Sunday.
Only 189 lawmakers out of 598 active members in the 601-seat parliament, casted their votes in the election. Poudel
, the sole candidate, secured a mere 116 votes and was declared defeated.
