How Credible Government’s Claim For Success
By KTM Metro Reporter in Kathmandu
On September 7, 2009, the state-run newspaper ‘Gorkhapatra’ has published in small script two-full-page accounts of the government’s performances during the last 100 days. It is a huge waste of money, paper and efforts made on publishing the description of what the Madhav administration has done during the last 100 days in an attempt to cover up its failure.
The government has claimed that it has been successful to elect a Chairman of the Constitutional Committee ignoring the reality of not the government but the Chairman of the Constituent Assembly is responsible for holding the election for the Chair of the Constitutional Committee.
The Madhav administration has defied even the lowest level of political and administrative ethics and has claimed the enhanced security despite the state-run media have been daily reporting the bomb-blasts, killing of people including a policeman, kidnapping of children and adults, blockade of roads and highways and so on.
The irony is that the government has claimed the success for bringing leaders of all political together at the time when ministers representing the Nepali Congress did not show up in the press conference held to brief the media of the successful performances of the government during the last 100 days, when eight legislators of the Madheshi People’s Rights Forum-Democratic have demanded the Chairman of the party to pull out of the government, when Nepali Congress President Girija Prasad Koirala has openly objected Prime Minster Madhav Nepal expanding the cabinet without consulting him, and the Tarai Madhesh Democratic Party did not send its members to join the government when Maoist legislators have continued holding the legislature hostage, and have been distancing from the main political parties.
The prices of the daily necessities such as rice, lintels, vegetables and potatoes have skyrocketed, shortage of sugar has been the order of day and outage of electric power has continued despite the heavy monsoon rains. Is it the success of the Madhav administration?
