The ninth global convention of the Non-Resident Nepali Association (NRNA), which was inaugurated by Nepal's President Bidya Bhandari and which was participated by 2,500 representatives from 81 countries is bogged down in numerous controversies and scandals.
First came the news that said Upendra Mahato has boycotted the NRNA kumbha mela because of over politicization.
Kul Acharya (Britain) has been overtly and covertly supported by Nepali Congress, whereas Kumar Pant (Germany) is supported by the ruling Nepal Communist Party.
NRNA should not be a political platform and NRNs should not be contracted by viruses of political maneuvers and bickering.
The impartial and nonaligned NRNs still do not understand why NRNA movement has been bitterly polarized and overtly politicized ? Is it because of arrogant attitude of Nepal's political parties or because some NRNs are just "followers and tails" of the political parties ? Probably, little bit of both.
Also, there was a news in the media that outgoing president of NRNA Bhavan Bhatta was boarded out of a plane from an international flight because of unruly behavior in the plane owing to intoxication.
Meanwhile, the Nepalese NRNs from Australia were reported to have misbehaved the Nepalese airport officials at the Tribhuvan International Airport. Even the glasses in the immigration section were shattered by those NRNs.
Now the ongoing NRN election looks like a circus scenario where sloganeering, protests, chaos and verbal abuse of rival contestants are rampant.
Also, there is lack of unity and coordination in NRNA in major countries like the US, the UK, Australia, Germany etc. The NRNs keep washing dirty linen in public in these countries. This is bad omen for NRNA.
