Byline: Shobhakar Budhathoki - Email: peace_sb@yahoo.com Nepal's journey to sustainable peace seems rocky and unpredictable due to ongoing political deadlock and power struggle. Increasing distrust and partisan politics with the election to Prime Minister has created further complexities about the future of peace process and has also contributed to widen the differences among key actors of peace negotiation. Despite political commitments of major political parties, the attempt to establish sustainable peace has become challenging through proper implementation of the November 2006 Comprehensive Peace Agreement and political understandings. This unhealthy politics and political dilemma puts the peace process in jeopardy and creates additional threats to political stability in Nepal.
