8 months of government: Strong in parliament, weak in performance

Prime Minister KP Sharma Oli addressed the Parliament meeting on 7 October 2081, the day his government completed 100 days, and said that the effect of the government on the common people is more important than the achievements of the government. What about the numbers themselves? What really matters is the lives touched by those numbers, the pain they eased and the beautiful future they showed,” he said.

Prime Minister KP Sharma Oli addressed the Parliament meeting on October 7, 2081, the day his government completed 100 days, and said that its effect on the common people is more important than the achievements of the government.

What about the numbers themselves? What really matters is the lives those numbers touched, the pain they eased and the beautiful future they showed,” he said. The government does not have an account of what effect it has had on the lives of common people after the Oli government came into being. As expected by Oli, economic reform index is under pressure as it looks weak.

During the period of 100 days, the Ministry had made a commitment to make a list of work to be completed in the first 100, second 100 and remaining days. "This government has completed about 70 percent of the work it said it would do," Oli said in the parliament on the occasion of reaching 100 days.

But the government, which is close to two-thirds of the parliament, has been surrounded by more questions and anger from the common people as it completes eight months. Not only the harsh criticism of the opposition parties, but also the attacks of the monarchist forces outside the parliament have been directed at Prime Minister Oli. Prime Minister Oli is under pressure due to the attacks on Parliament and the streets.

The Congress-UML coalition government was formed with the commitment to protect the national interests, maintain good governance by controlling corruption, accelerate the development and construction campaign, and improve the economic condition of the country. But mathematically, even though the Oli government is strong, there is still anger due to lack of performance in a way that common people can feel. 

analysts have said that despite not being able to make 'mega changes', it is weak to not instill hope in the common people that 'the government is doing well' . The Prime Minister and Finance Minister are under pressure as the economy of the country is not improving as expected. According to the Comptroller General's Office, so far the capital expenditure is only 23 percent while the revenue target has risen to 50 percent. Development and construction has not been able to accelerate . The earthquake victims of Jajarkot and Rukum West are still in their homes.

Government Spokesperson and Minister of Communication and Information Technology Prithvisubba Gurung said that since the government has made policy reforms through ordinances, progress will be seen in economic reform, governance, and investment sectors in the coming days. "The government has changed the old laws according to time and we have arrived at the right place," he said. Mega change in the country may take time. A situation that has worsened in the past is usually  He said that the situation will be visible now that it has been brought.

The main opposition party, the Maoist Center, has alleged that the chaos is increasing due to the failure of the government. Leader of the main opposition party and Chairman of Maoist Pushpa Kamal Dahal alleged that two-thirds of the government was run by someone other than Prime Minister Oli.

"I have not seen two-thirds of the government's horse being driven by the Prime Minister and Minister". That horse has been driven by the middlemen', he said in a special address in the Parliament on Tuesday, accusing the government's working style as the main reason for the ex-king's dismissal. The government's indiscretion, indiscretion and failure have increased the people's disillusionment with the system.

This is Dahal's third special address in the parliament after Oli became the government. Those who are in every speech are accusing the government of going towards failure. He claimed that dissatisfaction has increased more than during the government under his leadership eight months ago. 

On the same day that the leader of the main opposition party Dahal addressed the House of Representatives, Prime Minister Oli gave a special address to the Koshi Provincial Assembly and said that the government is committed to preventing corruption. He claimed that he had done a lot of work in the fields of industry, agriculture, tourism, and social security by making plans for development work.

'I am a person who has survived some kind of emergency operation . Just turned 73 and turned 74 . I can't say I'm old . It is trying to change the face of this country. I don't want to mess up . I am interested in fulfilling the aspirations of the people and addressing their feelings,' he said, 'I am ready to listen to everyone's needs . I am in favor of national unity . I have always said national unity . I said let's go ahead in a peaceful way.' He said that he will go ahead after listening to all sides, but Dahal said that he took the opposition to the parliament.

8 months of government: Strong in parliament, weak in performance Ask yourself how much space you have given to the opposition in the functioning of Parliament. When the leader of the main opposition party is standing on the rostrum, is it pride or lack of culture or desperation that the Prime Minister's absence continues? We are under close surveillance of all people. But, you have repeatedly ignored the people's wishes.'

Dahal claimed that 'the style of governance displayed by the parties in power in the last eight months and the resulting dissatisfaction is the root cause of this'. "The horse of misrule that you have run on the arrogance of two-thirds is now becoming the biggest crisis on democracy," he added, "The biggest responsibility to face this crisis has come to be of the ruling parties". The arrogance of two-thirds of you is driving millions of people to the streets.' 

Despite criticizing each other, Oli and Dahal have pledged to move forward to protect democracy and the constitution. We have to give stability to the federal republic that we fought for. Will protect the constitution . According to the need, the constitution should be amended in favor of the people and democracy,' Oli pointed to the former royalists in the Koshi Provincial Assembly and said, 'The country does not want to go backwards. Now he is trying to raise his voice against the system . What is a better system than this? Let's discuss . The country cannot be driven by the interests of one person.'

Dahal urged to make his place in democracy and warned to do activities within the constitution. I urge the royalists to find their place within democracy, we have no objection. We as political parties believe that democracy belongs to Prachanda as much as it belongs to Gyanendra Shah and our constitution has established that belief,' said Dahal, 'If the unconstitutional and undemocratic path is chosen without following the basic principles of democracy, the revolution will once again show its power.' 'Has the government lost the ability to communicate with the people or does it not want to communicate?' His question was, 'In the eyes of the people, the credibility of the government and the rationale of dialogue with the government has ended?'

Krishna Pokharel, political science professor

Political science professor Krishna Pokharel said that although the government is strong in terms of political legitimacy, it has to face anger and questions when its performance is weak. It is not easy for Prime Minister KP Oli. The government is strong in terms of political legitimacy. There is political legitimacy to govern . It has to be converted into performance," he said, adding, "The government has not been able to prove political legitimacy by working effectively. The challenge is there . If KP Oli is to say that he has done well, he will have to face bigger challenges. Pokharel says that Prime Minister Oli is under pressure because he is not able to produce results as expected even if there is no non-cooperation from the other major ruling party, the Congress. 'Oli looks under pressure . Sometimes they put pressure on employees . Sometimes they say it's a very good job . The work has not been seen in a way that the common man can feel . There has been no help from the Congress, but the work has not been done," he said. "Even if the work could not be done as expected, you should have given a positive comment. The government has not even been able to make a comment about what it is going to do now.' The head of the government should take stock of what he has done so far. What have we tried to do so far? We have to take the real data of what happened and address where the problem is," he said. He said that because there was a rift between the forces that fought for democracy, the former king came to the streets by force. 'Unable to work with the pro-democracy and change forces, the royalists came together,' he said, 'Even if the demonstration of the royalists does not have a big impact immediately, the anger will increase if the government is unable to produce results.' "The strengthening of the republic has not been done by the Prime Minister who rules with two-thirds," he added, "a lot of good things can be done by taking the opposition into confidence." No dialogue with the opposition. There was a breakthrough in the TRC. That too is confused now .
