Acting Chairman Ghanshyam Bhusal Stresses Election Inevitability Amidst Political Failures

Kathmandu. The acting chairman of the Communist Party of Nepal (United), Ghanshyam Bhusal, has stated that elections are inevitable. He mentioned that these elections have become unavoidable not because the Nepali people desired them, but due to extraordinary circumstances in the constitutional and democratic process.

Speaking at a press conference organized in Butwal, he stated that the country must learn lessons from the destructive events it has faced. He added that preparing to go to elections without exposing the incompetence of political parties and forging a national consensus only serves to hide the problems.

He stated that processes like the commission led by Gauribahadur Karki will also fail to reveal the reality. Bhusal warned that by missing this opportunity, the country is weakening as a small nation under geopolitical pressure. He cautioned that the old tendencies will repeat even after the elections, the path of dependent development will not create employment, the system of middlemen will strengthen, and good governance will not be established.

He emphasized the need to domesticate politics and find a Nepali path, free from the Western model. Stating that the country's core problems are dependent development, comprador capitalism, and the system of middlemen, he called upon the intellectual class and political workers to raise these questions and provide a way out. Bhusal, while considering the election as a good fortune, stated that it alone will not resolve the crisis and that deep reconsideration is necessary.
