Nepali Congress President Gagan Kumar Thapa has criticized the government for prioritizing social media popularity over solving the actual problems of citizens.
On Sunday, speaking at a meeting held at the party’s central office in Sanepa, Gagan Thapa shared his strong views. The meeting was organized to review the government’s first 100 days and its 100-point program. Thapa claimed that the working style of government is currently limited to earning fame on social media by making citizens homeless.
Focus on Likes Over Real Life
Thapa pointed out that while it is the state’s responsibility to solve the problems of landless people, the government has created a bulldozer terror in local communities without managing any alternative place for them to live. He said that this government is more concerned to likes than actual life of the people.
He also shared his past experience from the time of constitution drafting, where he was a member and coordinator of the committee. He remembered how they wrote about Dalit rights and special rights for landless Dalits. But now, he feels the government is displacing people and sending bulldozers to every neighborhood without following a proper process.
A Few Positive Signs
However, Thapa also pointed out some positive aspects. He said that the government apologizing to the Dalit community is a good thing. He also mentioned that the decision of Prime Minister Balendra Sah to run governance reform works directly from Singha Durbar is a positive sign, even though it may look small.
