Class struggle of indegenous people of Nepal
Mr Dambar Chemjong, a paper presenter concluded his presentation that Marxist perspective is relevent on behalf of anti-exploitation upon indigenous. He claimed that ruling class Brahmin and Chettri is charged for exploitation upon indigenous people. Indigenous people do not have ownership of land. Neither they have right in production and reproduction of the land. They labour but the production right goes to the elites, upper class. He defined that indigenous group is working class. Cultural discrimination is the inherent structure of Nepali society. P. N. Shah ruled over after annexation and never paid attention to the people who were annexed.His links of indigenous struggle with the principle of Marxism can be in the spirit of indigenous spirit. However, he himself is doubtful whether Marxism benefits and sustains cultural identity of indigenous society or merely avails physical achievements. However, the Marxist's philosophical ideology has been adopted in many countries for the struggle of indigenous too. He further says that Marxists have the philosophical explanation suitable for indigenous community. The basic principle of Marxism rests on the production, production value, and alienation etc. Do Lumbus, one of the indegenous group give value to the land alike Marxists? How can be the land used by them transformed into scintific productive asset? These questions can be relevent from Chaudhari in Banke to Magar of Magarat pradesh ( the term coined by Maoists). The motive of both Marxism and indigenous group meet at to create classless society in addition indigenous society aims at preserving their language, cultural identity.Indigenous struggle was put in question. Does it not form the classes among them by the people in the front line of the struggle? The struggle does not mean for the acquirement of privileges by a small group: it's for collective goodness. His discussion seems relevent at the brisk of declaring the Terai an autonomous region, the region with self-determination. Not only Terai but also all other regions should be made autonomous.Mr Dumber spends much time scolding at P.N Shah, the founder of modern Nepal, should take the discredit of beginning indigenous exploitation and indigenous made laborers without receiving the production benefit and ownership land. History can be commented but cannot be changed. Time is most powerful. Scolding at him is fruitless. But the shortcomings of indigenous group also should be analyzed. In class sturggle should not there be any indigenous were rulers.However, it can be concluded that the gist or crux of discussion Marxist theory is helpful in the struggle of indigenous people of Nepal.The struggle should make their demands engraved in upcoming constition to be made by constient assembly with golden letters. Lets be hopeful the spirit of constitution will create eqality in the society and special previleges to the indegenous people.
