In Britain, I guess you need permission from the local authority (which will obviously be granted in most sensible cases) or need to notify the authority to air your anger and grievances in the form of strike/banda in some places. As a result of this, all citizens can be made aware of it beforehand and the state can protect and advise citizens of such strike which only take place for a few hours (or short period of time) etc. They effectively convey the message (of dissatisfaction and anger) without damaging the economy and lifestyle too much.
Do you think this is a good idea? Should we ask entities to register their interest of strike/Banda etc and seek permission first or should we let them block East West Highway and access roads to the capital and other cities left right and centre whenever they like, ruining every citizens' life for days or in some cases indefinitely?
Should we ban words and events like "Nepal Banda", "Kathmandu Banda" etc? Should we promote dialogue rather than a banda? Rational arguments, please!

What do you think the new constitution of Nepal should offer us?
I guess the constitution should provide an EQUAL OPPORTUNITY to ALL its citizens irrespective of their caste or race, religion, gender, age, origin, background and ability (et al). This literally means that you will be treated equally by the state whether you are a Muslim/Christian or Hindu/Buddhist, straight, transgender or gay, Shudra/Vaishya or Chhetri/Brahmin, 19 or 90 year-old, able or disabled, Madhesi/Pahade or Bhote, Oriental or Aryan, PhD holder, an illiterate or in-between!
It is fairly easy to say this but in order to offer such a fair opportunity to all we need a very transparent system in place in every walk of life. My philosophy is very simple: most good things including the Internet have now been invented by the rest of the world, we simply need to import good ones into our constitution and implement them! Most of them are tried and tested already by the world and we can only pick up those that are the BEST!
I have got a proposal: Hundreds of thousands of Nepalese live abroad now, some commanding fairly good positions where they have seen something work very well in their neighbourhood. I suggest they all suggest "best practices" from their walk of life to be considered in the new constitution of Nepal so that we will be heading towards having one of the best constitutions in the world!
I have got areas that I would like to mention in this site. If you have any reasons why they should or should not be included please list your reasons. Only constraint is that you should list commonsensical, logical (mathematically or scientifically), proven (those implemented successfully somewhere in the world) or tested (piloted successfully in some areas) issues with valid argument either for or against your points.
If you wish to read constitutions of other countries in the world, please follow these links (I think everyone involved in the making of the constitution of Nepal should visit these sites too):
