CPN-UML Chairman KP Sharma Oli has claimed that the number of youths leaving for foreign employment has increased compared to last year, yet no one is talking about it now.
Speaking at a program organized for UML lawmakers on Sunday, KP Sharma Oli recalled how there was a massive noise last year regarding the issue of youths leaving the country. He said that even though number of people going abroad is higher now, there is complete silence in the public and media debate.
KP Oli Questions the Silence Over Rising Migrant Numbers
“There was a huge rumor that people were being sent abroad, that they were leaving. Last year at this time, there was unbearable noise,” Oli said. He added, “Now, more people have gone abroad than at this time last year. But everyone is quiet.”
Oli also commented on how some people are now starting to explaining youth going abroad as a basic right instead of a problem.
Using Parliament to Clear Confusion
“Last year it was not natural, now it is natural. Just like they say water and talks can be turned anywhere, they twist the words. They use it for their narrow interests against the public benefit,” the UML Chairman remarked.
He further mentioned that the Parliament is the most important platform to correct such false information and rumors spread among the public. Even though his party does not have the required majority to pass laws, Oli said that Parliament remains the best place to raise issues that are closely linked to the welfare of the people.
