RPP Leader Khushbu Oli Claims Federal Structure Has Failed, Advocates for Two-Tier Governance
Kathmandu. Rastriya Prajatantra Party (RPP) leader and proportional representation candidate Khushbu Oli has claimed that the current provincial structure of federalism has completely failed. She asserted that only a lean governance system with two tiers—center and local level—is suitable for the country now.
In the concept paper she released, she argued that provincial governments have become economically burdensome and fruitless, asserting that only a development model combining modern technology and the eternal religion can give the nation a new direction.
Oli placed special emphasis on elevating Nepal's economy from traditional remittances and subsistence agriculture to a modern, technology-friendly one.
Leader Oli mentioned in the concept paper that Nepal's cool climate can be turned into an economic opportunity. She argued that the Himalayan region of Nepal is suitable for addressing the globally increasing demand for 'data centers' and that this would reduce 'cooling' costs, making Nepal a hub for data centers. Furthermore, emphasizing ICT, AI, and STEM education, she stressed the need to establish 'Youth Innovation Centers' to retain youth within the country.
She asserted the indispensability of a constitutional monarchy for political stability. Citing examples from the United Kingdom, Japan, and Arab nations, she stated that democracy with a king can maintain national unity and discipline.
Moreover, she asserted the necessity of reinstating 'Eternal Hindu Nation' to prevent 'civilizational erasure' and establish Nepal's distinct identity in the world. Considering farmers as the backbone of the economy, she put forward a policy to directly connect farmers' produce to the market and dignify the profession.
She opined that the tourism sector should adopt a 'High Value, High Impact' policy, learning from Bhutan's model. She mentioned that economic benefits can be derived by making religious tourism a 'national brand.'
