Reflections
on 17 years since the “People’s War”, by
Gyanu Ghimire (kh 13/02/2024), “People’s
War” achievements are nation’s common assets: PM
Dahal (kh 13/02/2024) [What achievements? Social non-inclusion
persists, as does patriarchy; women are at best
second-class citizens, Dalits are discriminated
against and are victimised. Justice for the
victims of the insurgency is still denied. The
poverty rate is high. The constitution was
created by the traditional ruling male elite,
not by the inclusively elected representatives
of the people; promises made during the People's
War are often not honoured. The electoral system
is manipulated and abused. Civil liberties are
often restricted. The federal state exists
mainly on paper. Corruption is rampant and is
covered up by the political elite. The most
important achievement of the People's War
remains the abolition of the monarchy and the
Hindu state, but it is precisely this that is
increasingly being called into question. Support
for your party has fallen to a meagre 11 per
cent. Voters are simply fed up with narcissistic
politicians like Dahal, Oli and Deuba. How are
you going to change that?]
