Dr. Rambaran Yadav: the first President of Nepal


After 1 and a half months of no statehead in the country, Nepal has got its first President. Dr. Rambaran Yadav has been elected the President on July 21, 2008. However, he is still not the president for all the people. People who had given votes to the Communist Party of Nepal (Maoist) have not favoured Dr. Yadav.
Presidential post is the highest post in the country governance and the president is assumed to be the respected person performing ceremonial roll. Hoever, the parties have made the post a meal to be eaten after winning another. Therefore, the president is still not the inclusive person, because the post was offered to him only after Girija Prasad Koirala , Madhab Kumar Nepal and Prachanda didn't made to it. The presidential candidates Dr. Rambaran Yadav, Mr. Ramprit Pashwan and Mr.Ramraja Prasad Singh were selected when the chance of the major party-leaders fade out.
Despite all these facts, the good news is :we have finally got our President, and he is a Madhesi. This has created a positive notion for the Madhesis and Janajatis that everybody has oppurtunity in the new Nepal. Let's hope the country will now move towards progress under the parentship of the President of Nepal.
