Irresponsible statement

Recently, the government has brought out statute implementation plan with the details of the exact date and months. If everything goes well, this work plan looks splendid in terms of its successful implementation. However, it did appear that the government had done enough home work before bringing out the plan. Local level election, which is the backbone of ground level democratic process, has not been done for the last 14 years. What a pity it is to see that the so called major parties, who claim to be the champion of democracy, had completely failed to hold it? All the development budgets allocated for the local level development have been grossly misused due to the lack of proper governing bodies.

On the other hand, it did not suit Prachanda, Chairman of CPN Maoist Centre, publicly saying that the statute implementation plan formulated by the government cannot be implemented as reported in “Statute implementation plan will fail” (THT, 28 June, Page 5). His party is one of the major coalition partners in the Oli led government. Is it right for him to criticize the government when his party is also accountable to the people? Is this not his job also to suggest and advise his ministers to do the proper home work before the government makes anything public? It is crystal clear for the common people that unless the government sorted out the outstanding political and constitutional issues with the Sanghiya Gathbandan, the local level election cannot be held and accordingly the new statute cannot be implemented.

Similarly, unless the government brings NC aboard, its statue implementation plan cannot be executed. Is the government not aware of these hurdles? If yes, what was the intention behind bringing out the statue implementation plan? Time is running fast for the government and the big political parties considering the three tires of elections are to be held within the stipulated time after the promulgation of new constitution.

A day after those incidents, irate students attacked and burnt down some police posts, pulled down compound wall of and picketed Area Police for four hours.

It is really surprising to see the security personnel using excessive forces to quell people’s right to peaceful demonstration. And, it is really disturbing and unfortunate to see the students coming out in the streets and get killed during demonstration. Where are we leading the young students who are considered to be the future pillars of the nation? Why do not the ruling parties become ...
