Can the NCP politically survive as one single party?

 Can the NCP politically survive as one single party?

 The on-going political power struggle between the Nepal Communist Party two chairpersons possessing two different communist principals and ideologies is nothing but their political egos which have surfaced now for their own political interests.  

How could it be possible for the second rung leaders and the NCP as a whole to accommodate and hold these two highly ambitious and opportunist chairpersons together? As the political and constitutional experts opine that these two chairpersons agreeing to merge their parties just before the three levels of election held in 2017 was nothing but to fulfil for their personal political benefits. It has been almost three years the NCP has not been able to complete their unification process because of their two different communist principles and ideologies.

The political feud at the apex level of the NCP will continue to exist until one of the chairpersons agrees to compromise with the other for their personal benefits. Is it possible for Oli or Prachanda to do so? The blame game has already started between them tarnishing each other’s political images. Looking closely at the on-going blame game, it does seem that the NCP, sooner or later, will split. But, are the two chairpersons and the second rung leaders ready to lose their personal political benefits and other state facilities that they are enjoying now?

Before too late for them to politically harm themselves, they might agree to withdraw Dahal’s 19 –page political accusation paper and convincing Oli not to pen his rebuttal. It is yet to be seen how the NCP will end their on-going political mess at such a time when the country is completely engrossed by Covid 19 pandemic.

Bid to save NCP unity on

General Secretary of the ruling Nepal Communist Party (NCP) Bishnu Prasad Paudel, who is close to Prime Minister KP Sharma Oli, today met party Co-chair Pushpa Kamal Dahal and urged him to withdraw his proposal that he had presented in the Secretariat meeting last week.

In the 19-page document, Dahal had accused Oli of defying power sharing deal with him, ignoring party rules and decisions, and failing to run the party and the government.

“Paudel told Dahal to withdraw his proposal and seek resolution of issues on the basis of consensus,” a source close to Paudel told THT. In the Secretariat meeting held on Wednesday, Oli countered the allegations made against him by Dahal and majority members of the party Secretariat and sought 10 days to pen his rebuttal.

Later, deputy parliamentary party leader of the party Subas Chandra Nembang also met Dahal and told him that the best course of action for the party was to abide by the recent decisions of the party’s Standing Committee. Recently, the Standing Committee had decided that Oli would complete five-year term as PM and Dahal would act as the executive chairperson of the party as proposed by the six-member task force, ending the intra-party feud that had threatened party unity.

Globally, it represents a profound intersection of psychiatric distress, intense social strain, and political expression. Causes of Self-Immolation: The underlying motivations for self-immolation vary significantly across different regions, cultures, and socioeconomic demographics. ·      Political and Ideological Protest: In Western nations and certain East Asian histories, self-immolation is highly associated with political statement .

Mid-term election and referendum simultaneously

  Mid-term election and referendum simultaneously The people are tired of politicians who make wonderful promises but have miserably failed to fulfill their rosy promises. As a result, they seem to be gradually losing their credibility by days. However, having said that, the level of political awareness among the majority number of the people is still low which has been the advantage for the politicians to lure them towards their irresponsible and dirty politics. In the recent past weeks, we saw thousands of innocent people out in the streets to cheer up the so-called senior leaders who have miserably failed to lead the nation. We can see now the senior leaders and their parties are busy in forming another coalition government following the Supreme Court’s decision to nullify the unification of NCP a few days ago thus splitting the CPN-UML and CPN-Maoist. It was, in fact, a huge legal blow to them. This situation has created another political chaos in the country which might in...

A Legend Falls: Remembering Mountaineering Icon Nirmal Purja

The mountaineering world has lost one of its brightest, most unstoppable lights. It is with a profoundly heavy heart that I wish to express my profound grief over the tragic passing of Nirmal “Nimsdai” Purja, who lost his life alongside his brave crew in a devastating avalanche on Broad Peak, Pakistan. To say Nimsdai was a legend is an understatement. He was a force of nature who redefined the absolute limits of human endurance and capability. From shattering world records by climbing all 14 of the world’s highest peaks in just six months, to leading the historic first winter ascent of K2, he showed the world that "nothing is impossible." More importantly, he brought long-overdue pride, global recognition, and respect to the Nepali climbing and Sherpa community. Nims now rests eternally among the giant peaks he loved and conquered so fiercely. His fearless spirit, boundless energy, and ultimate motto—"Giving up is not in the blood"—will live on forever in the h...
