"Now, Congress and UML should be ready to fight alone"

Bhandari's sluggish activism, which has started attending forums organized by UML leaders, is an indication that it will take shape in some time. With this incident, one line of the UML is wavering and the other line is becoming enthusiastic. About the future political journey of former president Bhandari from Kantipur. Umesh Chauhan and Durga Khanal edited part of the conversation :

As the president, he played the role of chilling for about 7 years. He looked at the country from there too, now he is looking from outside. In general, there is extreme frustration among the citizens. What is the difference between seeing politics and citizens from inside and outside Shitalniwas?

Here at the beginning you said people are disappointed but I don't think so. Even when I was working in the office of the President, I saw the people closely. I'm still watching. Ever since I became politically aware, I have been closely watching the people. Time is dynamic. People's expectations and aspirations are increasing. The situation 40/50 years ago and the expectation of the people from the state at that time was one.

We were also born in a remote area, we saw floods, landslides, diseases, epidemics, and famine. At that time, the level of awareness of the people and what was expected from the state, is now increasing. Development of developed countries was also seen due to information and media. So it is changing all the time. The condition of the school when we study, the condition of sadness or happiness is very different. But the aspiration is that more and more people can get what they want. How to satisfy the people is up to the state and the government. People should not be made to look weak because they are disappointed.

People's world consciousness has also broadened. Why is it that the government system of other countries can fulfill the aspirations of its citizens, but our state cannot?

Don't say that others can do it, we can't either. Only good things about developed countries come in mass media. The distortion of a place with unemployed people living below the poverty line is not what the anomaly is. Only good things are shown. So everything looks good. But we have also done something good. There is unemployment, there is no doubt about it. There is an aspiration to get a good education, that too cannot be taken otherwise.

We have to increase the income of the people by increasing the national product, we have a lot left to do. That is why we have become very poor. Now there is a population of more than 7 billion in the world, it should be seen in Sardar. The world's population and how many of them are living below the poverty line should be looked at. Although

is our source, there are complaints that the government did not 'deliver'. How do you feel?

Nature, culture and geography have supported us. We have mountains, hills, plains, rivers. We are in a country rich in water resources. Culturally, Gautama Buddha's Lumbini is also known as the harbinger of peace around the world. If you can develop the cultural heritage, tourism is the source of immediate income. Two countries with such a large population are our neighbors. So, on the one hand, when the summer heats up, they may come to visit here. At that time we have to build some infrastructure. We had to have regular flights. That too had to be 'reasonable'. Accordingly, businessmen had to be encouraged. Tourism is a hand-me-down 'business'! Likewise, self-employment, employment and national income can be increased. The new generation should be given the resources and facilities they need. Study and research environment should be provided. That way we can get rid of the frustration. We were supposed to spin four funkos in a minute, but we only spun one funko. So our pace is slow.

You have also fulfilled roles as MP, Minister, Party Vice President and President. Why did we only visit one Funko instead of four Funkos?

was originally an autocratic system of government. At that time, attention was focused on going to a democratic system. It is the economic system that sustains the political system. We could not make that system! The system has to work to strengthen the national economy of the country by standing on the power of our country's resources and there should be no game on it. When there is only departmental responsibility, there is attention towards that. Be sure After sitting in the

leadership comes the matter of integrity. The political system was also changing, but the speed at which it should have changed did not happen. I also think that the departments and responsibilities given to me were given more attention. According to the party, I was given the responsibility of women in UML. I also looked at the Department of National Security and Defense. As a president, I felt that our national economy has become weak as a whole. In which geography we are located. It is said that the role we had to play to live a prosperous life could not be done.

There may have been some policy weaknesses, some behavioral weaknesses. It's not that nothing is happening. But that was only temporary, it could not be sustained. As much power as the leadership uses to reach power, it seems that they have not been able to create a common 'agenda' of agreement and environment for economic progress.

has already started talking about the 2084 election. With the arrival of new political parties, friction has been seen in the society. Which is stronger, the possibility that the old parties will come true or that a new political party will come forward and interfere in power?

Looking at the situation so far, the new old or mainstream political parties! Mainstream is mainly in two currents. One is represented by UML and the other by Congress. These parties have mature, experienced leadership, clarity and transparency in national and international affairs. We are in a multi-party system. Now some new parties have come. Some are regional parties. They have come to focus on their community.

s sometimes come from freelancers. Even in the era of Rashtriya Panchayat, when the elections were held, the people elected new independent people and won them. They could not solve the problem. Now emerging or regional parties are revolving around the two mainstream political parties that carry the ideals of the two principles. They don't think they can lead the country. They can go together in the national agenda.

In the mainstream, one strand is represented by the UML and the other by the Congress. But whether the country is fortunate or unfortunate, the Maoist Center and the National Independent Party are in the leadership. How do you see their role?

Even then, the Maoists have emerged to strengthen the power of the mainstream! Congress was in power, he thought totalitarian. That is why the Maoists seem to have emerged. When the UML was emerging as a powerful communist party of Nepal, some must have helped the Maoists to keep it in 'size'. But they too must now clarify their point of view. The concept is that while Madan Bhandari is bringing the people's multi-party democracy, there will be competition in the communist parties as well. Accordingly, UML is cooperating with other communist parties.

Maoists are a force that originated in a particular period. Sometimes it takes time for the river to recede after a flood. As the two parties emerged and were moving forward after the 2046 people's movement, it seems that the Maoists have come to 'down' those parties a bit. They have contested 4 elections since 2064. But he could not continue the earlier movement. Their development is downward rather than upward. Here Rashtriya Shakti Congress and UML have to chew many iron chips to strengthen themselves. This happens from time to time. Now independent, the Ravijis have come. If they can 'lead', that's fine.

He said that some forces may have helped the Maoists to keep the UML in 'size', but it was the UML that took the lead in making Prachanda the prime minister three times. Maoist's public opinion is declining since 2064, but UML is competing with Congress to keep him in power?

, three times UML supported the Maoist chairman and made him the prime minister. In 2064, UML's view was clear. Maoist was 'aggressive' towards Congress at that time. That is why the government of UML and Maoist was formed at that time. Recently, it was decided to cooperate again. It is a game of national circumstances. After 2074, on the one hand, the Maoists felt that I also cooperated but did not get leadership. On the other hand, the idea that all the fronts can be captured through the CPN worked there. They went together first. After that, by making use of a line within the UML, especially Madan Bhandari's idea, there was a game in terms of destroying the people's power in favor of multi-party democracy. After the formation of CPN, such a game took place. As a result, the politics of the country went in a different direction. But after the election of 2079, there was a situation to correct the mistakes of that time and whether to proceed according to the communist concept. What the country needs to understand is what will the Maoists do now? What is his ideological edge? Congressnikat or Amalenikat? It should be clear. It is one thing to play the same game and keep the country very unstable.

What I have suggested to Congress and UML leaders is that even if someone isolates UML, UML should be ready to fight. Even if the Communists all come together, the Congress should prepare to win under its leadership. It's not just about riding on other people's shoulders or dividing and ruling others. Accumulate power and go among the people based on your ideas and programs. But the Maoists are still not clear. They don't know when and where they go. Because after the 2079 election, he became close to UML and became the prime minister. But in the presidential election, they changed their mind and joined the Congress. Now he has come back and changed his mind.

The Prime Minister and Chairman of Maoist have said, 'What to do with 32 seats? Once the number is magical, no one can remove it even if they want to. If this game is going to continue, isn't it time to be clear about the role to be given to the party that got how many votes? The

role should be clear. Better to be clear. I don't know what this magic wand is. It is the same dream as the armed struggle in the underground period. But those days and society have changed. It is not a big deal to hold a position or not to give stability to the country. Today we have to move towards meeting the demands and needs of the country. In the 2074 election, UML and Maoists first formed an alliance and then the party was unified.

is said to have been your role in that integration. We also wrote that when the integration began to break down, he had called the 'co-pilots' to cool accommodation and instructed them not to break up. What was the purpose of your initiative?

National forces had to work together for the country So! In the electoral system we are in, the mandate to run the administration is obtained based on who has the power. At that time, CPN had the mandate to run the country. Never in history has a prime minister or any government been unable to work for a full term.

Congress had a majority in 2048, but Congress had to go to mid-term due to internal reasons, not opposition. Even in 2015, there was a majority, but the Congress could not manage it. Looking at the past, I said that at least five years should have been patient. The intention was that the one who has the majority at that time should do the work, and then the people would evaluate it in the elections so that the whole period would last. My intention was to move forward with national unity and reconciliation. There was no other favor.

Even though the party tried to save the CPN, in the end not only the party was divided, the mandate given by the people for 5 years was also blocked and the parliament was dissolved. Who caused this situation?

The prime minister reached the level of dissolving the parliament and going for a fresh mandate. Even after the formation of the CPN, there should be only two lines within the UML. Maoists also had a small share. But one and the part of the UCPN (A share of the Maoist Maoist, the situation that used in 'ideological oppression of the people' medical oppression of the people were reported. The Prime Minister tried to match, but we said to the fresh mandate. It was later reversed from legal process.

political voluntarily and watch the world's system should not take it otherwise. To complete that period by electing the election, the prime minister needs to dissolve the authority. If so, MPs can collaborate with the Prime Minister. If it does not matter if it does not remain in a country and in a country at a territory and movable, rather than going to internal. Later, the explanation of the constitution is one. This was not the case, but that such things were already before. There are also other countries. The root of controversy in

is in the party. The City was not unresponsive to the state of the party and did not argue that the Parliament was unrestive to the Parliament and approving the propulsion to the President. How do you feel about looking back now? & NBSP;

is the interpreter of the constitution of the Supreme Court. Is a matter of authority. By the prime minister passed from the cabinet, I brought a decision that I concluded her. I approved it. I think I did. We had to go to the fresh marital. The people used to think. The people could have given a new party to a new party than to live! The UML had come or the CPN-had been coming to the people that Oli wrote. So we should not be afraid of democracy very much, but on the elections. I have nothing to tell me for the restoration of parliament. I don't think that I was dissolved. The people knew if they had gone to the election. If the

-BREAK is internalized by the Prime Minister for the loss of faith or in the party, would it be the dissolution of parliament? & NBSP;

an event cannot be taken out of the overall. No matter how much the prime minister also dissolves a parliament. It is in a special condition. If the Milly had a government, all the party may have been a consensus. Or you may also do 'हाहाह At resign.

that the then Prime Minister had not received faith in the parliament by the parliament, he called for the formation of a new government from the President. Sher Bahadur Deuba and KP Oli claimed. But you made the prime minister with the support of a small-law. To whom the prime minister is determined by the president that then immediately? & NBSP;

was not broken at that time. KP Oli has shown a majority, according to that. As pace, it was the same party. & Nbsp; The new group has come after the nun in the

2079. What does the new party mean that the morning afternoon signifies the afternoon? I don't see such encouragement on the public parties to the new parties. We are in a direct look of the people. No one should think that the people do not see what I did inside the room. So if you do good work, it comes to burning. If you don't do well, it is pretended. Pretending and ideal is a different thing. Someone is pretending to attractions for a while, and one day it is exposed to one day. I haven't seen a very hopeful. So say, 'Old Ez Gold'. & NBSP; If you call

'Old EZ Gold', the same old team may be the same for you. You have also reported that you have been active in UML. Some time ago, it has been heard that the UML subscribed. What is the current political activism and step?

this subject is so rising so, I'm not understood. Shortly after a Shortly after the President, it was projected that I would come under the leadership of the party. I'm really ignorant. I understand that after the President was elected, I have passed a stage at the next stage.

but after a while, things from the lack of leadership in the Communist Party has come from a public opinion. I am ignorant of how this is known. When he went to shape, the friends also would tell me. Then he would have counted curiosity. If you can find out, it will be explain how I wake up about me. & Nbsp;

we can say that this is not from Congress, Maoist, national independent party or RPP. not stoy-braak. They were not affiliated with their party. But how did it get up there? While we were moved to serve the pure nation, the election was moved, he was raised, raises and responsibilities. Even today, our arcunitions should be contributed to some cases of the country. Therefore, it is considered to be able to help in harmony and acting on time and ideological matters. I do not pay packeting on the door, nor did I say that it was time to go to my feast. But there is no discussion that it does not say whether to come to party politics, and I have not said. Not even made the idea. & Nbsp;

became the UML since the beginning. I participated in a student movement in 2035/36 BS. It was demand that there would be an independent student union at that time. That was completed. They also went to the referendum. In 2046 BS removed party ban on favor of multi-party. Party membership is also taken against Madan Bhandari. Later, accidentally married to him. Even after his death, I lived in the active life of the party. I was three times a vice-president. The future has been constructed that it was working for the UML's good, no matter now me. I have both happiness and suffering in it.

because I haven't done wrong even if I am UML. The national interest, security and the people are walking as dedicated to how pleasant. My identity relationships and lives are still in a focus, friends who visited me here today, I have visited the country, the most friends. It is not that other friends do not come but more contact with them. So if you think everyone feels, I'm being active in the party. Sometimes you call to the program. The party said I would give a glorious honor honor. When I summoned the Country, the Prime Minister of the country does not mean that I should not go. Because of all this, I was active in UML, I have received membership.

should not be able to say that the campaign is not renewed after the publication?

should not be able to find the meaning that if I subscribed to the party, it is not the case. It is not the case that has gone in a responsibility. It should be our 'Open Mind' in it. Whom will I go to go near? They may not have to be invited to the close work of Congress! A paper thing happened to take a formal membership. I am now known. Then the members continue to get continuity. It remainedproved after president. Is the society say that the

is now a parent, not a parent, not braging to be a member of any party? & nbsp; When the

is not a member, it should not be saidive. I think I should talk about your heart and use of conscience. Even if someone is not a member member, they are useless. Even if anyone is a member, they are using discretion. We should not live in great superstition. & Nbsp; A

party has a contract, follow discipline, & NBSP; should be assumed to

'story-braak cocular'. You are sitting in the contract or not? Do you plan to attend the leadership of the road or not? & Nbsp;

so far the party said that you have been in our contract. Not also did 'Curcular.' There is no card that renewed my membership. I have not applied. If you have to give, it is easy. & Nbsp; After returning from the cool residence, you will return to the party and the prime I am a betterer is stronger! UML's Learner is saying this. What message does the leader telling you to the party's active politics? is more active in national life. Empire experiences in the needs of the nation. I have not made publication to come or not in Daulia politics. Now is my attitude that the first phase will bring as to the new generation as much as possible. Should go handing leadership. I lived in a different responsibility. Another leadership is underway in the party. The leadership is successfully doing his work. So I do not need to go to you right now. UML Chairperson and former Prime Minister KP Sharma Alley also said that no one is using unnecessary rumors. Do you feel that this be invited also uncomfortable in the UML or the leadership?

does not think that something is uncomfortable. I am in dialogue with the UML, all the party and public people. My discussion does not expect anyone to have such a problem. Instead, the deadlock are doing what the media did not notice .I do notice the media? Again, the media had to study the notice. & Nbsp;

now, finally politics from the Panceptor. MP, Minister, Party became vineyard and became the president. & NBSP; received important responsibilities in their lifetime. Do you feel that some role are yet to be active in politics? & NBSP;

President is a constitutionally the highest post. I have played the responsibility in that place. Therefore, it is not in my mind that will work as pride. But, there are still agenda! How much is the national 'agenda' right now, how much international. You have to do good. Our actions feel that we should focus on our thoughts. I have not also done in Padi-responsibilities. I have done the needs of the nation 'Open'.
