CPN-UML Leader Thapa Criticizes Rastriya Swatantra Party's Political Motives

Kathmandu. CPN-UML Vice-Chairman and Parliamentary Party Leader Ram Bahadur Thapa ‘Badal’ has stated that the Rastriya Swatantra Party (RSP) bringing eight ordinances by postponing the parliamentary session has the sole political objective of establishing absolute dominance over the country’s administration and judiciary. 

Speaking in the House of Representatives meeting on Tuesday in his party’s capacity, leader Thapa said so. Commenting on the RSP and the RSP government’s policies and leadership, he stated that the success achieved by the RSP is due to the AI magic of the weaknesses of the then ruling parties for decades, as well as the influence of the unseen forces of world geopolitics. 

He stated that on May 11, the President made public the government’s 100-point policy program, and that the RSP is trying to establish RSP’s sole leadership in the National Assembly, Provincial Assembly, and local levels in the upcoming elections. 

‘After achieving this goal, the RSP’s so-called blue revolution will be completed’, Badal said, ‘The government’s policies and programs should be an indispensable roadmap for the country’s development and prosperity and democracy.’ He stated that the RSP is not a party based on any ideology but a temporary alliance of ambitious and anarchic groups, and that it is politically based on the quagmire of populism. ‘This is extreme opportunism and unstable tendency’, Badal said, ‘It appears very dear in form, but is extremely fatal in substance and outcome. It is a philosophy of illusion and contradiction.’ Badal raised dozens of questions, asking why the policy and program remained silent on the Lipulek, TOV scandal, why the bell of the policy and program did not ring when the rights of teachers and professionals were snatched away, and why those who said development does not happen with loans are taking loans.
