A game of you

This past week has been one of great tumult, with the promulgation of Nepal’s new constitution. There were those who were enthralled with the document, those circumspect and those who outright rejected it. While there were celebrations in the streets of Kathmandu and black flags in the streets of the Madhes, all three camps took to social media with a passion. There were posts about jubilation but just as many virulently condemning the statute. As expected, there were fewer moderate posts —those that admitted that thedocument was flawed and needed to be quickly amended but still welcomed it wearily as the product of a process that had at times seemed endless.
