Rastriya Prajatantra Party Whip Khushbu Oli Demands Inclusion of Hinduism, Monarchy, and Province Review in Constitution Amendment

Kathmandu. Rastriya Prajatantra Party (RPP) Chief Whip Khushbu Oli has demanded that the government compulsorily include issues such as a Sanatan Hindu nation, constitutional monarchy, and review of provincial structures in the process of constitution amendment.

Speaking in the House of Representatives meeting, Chief Whip Oli expressed objection that these important issues were not included in the preliminary draft of the task force formed for constitution amendment.

She accused the government of not accepting the voices of the general public who are in favor of Vedic Sanatan Dharma, monarchy, and abolition of provinces as suggestions from the people. Recalling that the suggestions taken from the public in the past were ignored and shelved, she warned the government not to try to shelve the public sentiment in a digital sack this time as well. Oli also claimed that sufficient national debate and public opinion were not taken when Nepal was declared a secular nation.

Speaking in the meeting, Chief Whip Oli said, 'Are the citizens who believe that it should be a Sanatan nation including Vedic Hindu and Buddhist, not people in the government's eyes? Taking advantage of poverty and backwardness in the name of secularism, religious conversion is happening rapidly of late, does the government not see this scene?'

She emphasized that there should be sufficient philosophical and historical debate at the institutional level on the issue of monarchy. Mentioning that the provincial government is an economic burden, she also demanded a review of its justification.

Chief Whip Oli has warned that if these demands are not addressed in the final draft of the constitution amendment, nationalist forces and Sanatan followers across the country will embark on a decisive struggle.
