The Ditible
Rajendra Lingden, the President of the Rashtriya Prajatantra Party, has attributed the political instability in the country to the Congress and UML parties. In response to Prime Minister KP Sharma Oli’s proposal to seek a vote of confidence in the House of Representatives, Lingden asserted that the Congress and UML are primarily responsible for the country’s lack of stability.
During a Sunday meeting of the House of Representatives, Lingden highlighted that despite the Communist Party securing nearly two-thirds of the votes, the government could not maintain stability for five years. He emphasized that the Congress has won a majority multiple times, yet stability remains elusive, indicating the need for reforms in the election and appointment systems within the constitution.
Lingden pointed out that the political landscape lacks stability and inclusivity, with small parties being manipulated for the benefit of the larger parties. He criticized the Congress and UML for their tactics, stating, “Small parties are split up when necessary, and kept with benefits by showing small greed. If only math worked, wouldn’t the Communist Party alone get about two-thirds of the votes? Why did the government not run for five years? Didn’t the Congress get the majority on its own time and time again? It is not a problem of small parties and proportionals. It is the tendency and character of Congress and UML. There are many things that need to be improved in the constitution. The election and appointment system should be improved.”
Lingden also stressed that good governance cannot be achieved by appointing party affiliates to the judiciary.
