July 27, Kathmandu.
The Valley Post has learned that a group of miscreants has unofficially taken over the control of the Nepali government, and has been running it with no overseeing or accountability, with the concerned authorities unaware or unable to take any actions against them. It is learned that the unofficial coup, orchestrated by a group of men in their late teens and early twenties...mentally, not physically, has been going along for much longer than anyone had previously considered possible.
Dr Karnel Singh, an expert of political science and coups in a local university that we won't name, said that the secret group could have been in control of the state apparatus for a long time, in the order of decades. "While we can't be sure exactly at which point real governance was taken over by these miscreants, practical jokers and mostly nihilists who didn't care much about politics or the implications of political actions, we can confidently say that it's in the order of decades, multiple, and there is no end in sight, " Dr. Singh said.
Other experts who were reached out for comment but refused to talk on the record with their names because who knows what these goons are going to do it's not like any rules or laws apply to them and nobody has the balls to enforce the goddamn rules they wrote, said that the takeover has gone on for so long, it is now indistinguishable from real governance. "We think Nepali governance is one of the least accountable, most corrupt, and generally the most disappointing among the failed states in the world. And while that may be true it's unclear it's the 'real' governance we're talking about, or the group of goons who took over the reins of the statecraft in secret. Either way, it doesn't matter as this has become our new reality", an expert said.
International experts who have studied power transitions, coups and democratic institutions argue that the movement has gone for far too long to be reversed, and if there was ever a backbone of democratic, honest governance in the country, it has crumbled by this point due to the lack of use. "I guess if you're not paying attention to the people in power, this is the sort of thing you should expect. A ten-year kid could go to Singhadurbar tomorrow and take charge of the state, and decree that chocolate should be free for all the kids. We would have no way of telling if that was a decision made by the existing fakies, real government, or the new unsurpers of power. Because our eyes have dropped low due to the low expectations, the mechanism for keeping those making statecraft accountable don't exist anymore."
