In politics and sociology, divide and rule is a combination of political, military and economic strategy of gaining and maintaining power by breaking up larger concentrations of power into chunks that individually have less power than the one implementing the strategy. In reality, it often refers to a strategy where small power groups are prevented from linking up and becoming more powerful, since it is difficult to break up existing power structures. The use of this strategy was imputed to administrators of vast empires, including the Roman and British, who were charged with playing one tribe against another to maintain control of their territories with a minimal number of imperial forces. The concept of "Divide and Rule" gained prominence when India was a part of the British Empire. It is said that the British used the strategy to gain control of the large territory of India by keeping its people divided along lines of religion, language, or caste, taking control of petty princely states in India piecemeal.
Divide and rule is the exact theory the Nepalese politicians have adopted and are trying to implement to rule Nepal and the Nepalese people. If you look into it closely the lin
es are very similar to the ones used in India like religion, language, caste etc. These leaders do not want the Nepalese people to unite. Firstly, the leaders can easily get away with all their wrong doings if the people are distracted on other issues and are divided in fractions fighting and disputing. Secondly it is serving there purpose which is creating political instability in the country. These leaders are just like parasites eating the country and making it hollow and if they are not stopped or corrected then our children and grand children will no longer be a citizen of a free independent Nepal.

even though i hardly know hwnt nepali politics is all about , from what i've seen and heard i can justify that it is the policy of divide and rule that is weakening our government.the britishers following the very same policy captured all of india weakening the contry's unity and fraternity. the very same thing is hapening to our nation.politics divides our nation completely affecteing the brotherhood of nepali citizens.it is totally based upon the caste and creed not merely the political interest.people seem to be wanting to uplift their own kind .i.e people of their own caste and type but nowhere in the picture has anyone stood up to uplift nepal as a whole.all minorities want representation.
all our country needs is a better representation and political leaders working for the upliftment of the nation as a whole and not merely the particular caste ,creed or regional groups.
