The National Independent Party (NISP) has further clarified its political philosophy and ideological outlook by mentioning a 'full democratic republic' in its party statute.
The draft of the party statute received by Kantipur mentions a full democratic republic, rule of law, social justice and liberal economy, constitutional socialism, equitable inclusion, competence, good governance, morality and coexistence of ancient civilization and culture as the party's vision and ideals.
The previously amended statute in 2082 BS only mentioned the rule of law, equality with social justice, competence and diligence, dedication to nation building, zero tolerance for corruption, direct participatory democracy and individual freedom and human rights as part of the party's philosophy and commitment. At that time, the word 'republic' was not included.
The proposed statute also explains the party's political basis and ideological outlook. It states, ‘A fully democratic republican system of governance based on pluralism with full guarantees of individual freedom and fundamental rights, and accountable good governance based on law.’
Similarly, ‘Constitutional socialism, which runs the state on the basis of national policies and programs while achieving the main goals of socialism through peaceful means’ has also been mentioned as the ideological basis of the party.
According to the proposed statute, the party’s central committee will have 136 members, including the president. Of these, 99 will be elected by the general convention, while the remaining members will be nominated by the president.
The new statute also changes the names of some departments. It is proposed to rename the Policy and Ideology Department as the Policy and Research Department, the Publicity Department as the Publicity and Communication Department, the Human Development Promotion Department as the Training and Capacity Development Department, the Organization Department as the Organization and Membership Department, and the International Relations Department as the International Relations and Migration Nepali Department.
Similarly, preparations are underway to include a provision in the statute that a police report will be mandatory for candidates. The Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) had formed a committee under the coordination of Joint General Secretary and MP Bipin Acharya to amend the statute. The committee included Ganesh Parajuli, Chanda Karki, Prakash Chandra Pariyar and Sushant Vaidik as members.
