Ujyalo Nepal Party Chairman Ghising Claims Victory in Public Support Despite Electoral Loss

Kulman Ghising, Chairman of the Ujyalo Nepal Party, claimed on Tuesday that although his party suffered a technical defeat in the elections, they won the hearts of the people.

Reviewing the election results on social media platform Facebook, Chairman Ghising stated that the party received a massive mandate expecting change and wished the Rastriya Swatantra Party (RSP) success in fulfilling the aspirations for good governance and prosperity. He made it clear that while his party would support the good work of the new government, they would offer constructive criticism from the streets if any wrongdoings occur.

Ghising wrote a lengthy status criticizing the country's current administrative and development systems. He stated that the country's development is stalled by the practice where building a single bridge takes 15 years and contractors who fail to perform cannot be held accountable. Ghising wrote, 'We have seen many movements and announcements, but the root of the problem is not the announcement, but the weakness in implementation.' He added, 'This is why the budget is not being spent, and the people's hopes are repeatedly turning into disappointment.'

He mentioned that his party entered the election with a commitment to deliver work and results, and he also presented a list of his past achievements. Recalling the end of 18 hours of load-shedding, increasing household electrification from 58 percent to 99 percent, and transforming Nepal from an electricity importer to an exporter, he said, 'We won the hearts of the people by doing things like ending load-shedding, but this time we could not win the votes.'
Furthermore, he claimed achievements such as removing the obstruction in the Bancharedanda waste management, making Melamchi Water Supply operational, opening the Tatopani border crossing, and terminating contracts for stalled projects while holding responsibilities in various ministries. 

Thanking the Prime Minister, security agencies, and voters for successfully conducting the elections amidst challenging circumstances, Ghising stated that the love and goodwill shown by the people in a short time are a great source of energy for him.
He expressed that he was not disappointed by the election results and reiterated his commitment to move forward even more strongly in the campaign for 'Ujyalo Nepal Construction.' 

He interpreted this election, which followed the 'Genji' movement, not just as a political competition but as an opportunity for change against corruption and inaction.
