Nepali Communist Party Criticizes Government Over Evictions and Policy Concerns

Kathmandu. The Nepali Communist Party has expressed serious objections to the government's recent actions of evicting squatter families and demolishing their huts in various parts of the country without providing adequate alternatives.

In a press release issued on Sunday, the party termed these actions as 'inhumane' and demanded that the government immediately halt them and arrange for rehabilitation.

The statement mentions that activities carried out in the name of squatter management have left victimized families stranded and increased the risk of weakening the trust of marginalized communities in the state. 

'We urge the government not to carry out such actions without making proper arrangements for rehabilitation,' the statement said. Meanwhile, the party has also demanded immediate control over rising inflation and black marketeering, which it claims have increased following the formation of the new government.

The party has deemed attempts to ban student organizations as unconstitutional and unacceptable. It expressed serious concern, stating that there is an attempt to snatch away the right to organize, which was enjoyed even during the Panchayat era, in the current Federal Democratic Republic.

Additionally, it noted that attempts to ban trade unions would violate constitutional rights and international treaties.

While noting that the public expects good governance, social justice, and prosperity from the current government, the party stated that it welcomes positive programs. However, the statement highlights that the biased and unilateral tendencies seen in governance and parliamentary practice have raised concerns.
