There is a well-known story of Govind Gothale, the great figure of Nepali literature: Ma Jujuman. Written in the environment of seven years of revolution, this story depicts the nature and mood of Nepalese society. A businessman living in the suburbs of Kathmandu goes to his sister-in-law's "secretary" house to have a feast.

In his haste he forgot to trim his beard. While walking, his hand falls on his cheek. He flinches. He laughs at his memory of forgetting to cut his beard and says to himself - 'Even if I cut my beard, I'm jujuman, even if I don't shave my beard, I'm jujuman.' 

The story of Jujuman depicted by Gothale has been read by the current 'supatras' of Nepali politics or not? I don't know that. However, the story has a poignant depiction of the time and society. Now there has been a big change in the material condition of Nepali society. However, there was no change in the mental state.

Especially, the political leaders who are in charge of the power empire, the educated officials, businessmen, and employees who have taken the reins of that empire in their hands have narrowed their morale. Jujuman's sister-in-law called Jujuman not as 'my cousin' but as 'my cousin's poi' in the society of Sukila-mukilas invited to Pasni.

The 'powerful' government of Nepali Congress and Nepal Communist Party (UML) presented its policy and program in the Parliament on Friday. That policy and program was nothing more than 'routine procedure'. Some political leaders and scholars criticized the government's policies and programs.

learned left-wing leader Dr. Baburam Bhattarai was upset that the government's policies and programs could not be 'qualitative'. Dr. Prakasharan Mahat remarked that policies and programs have not gone a step further than 'traditional'. Dr. According to Swarnim Wagle, it is a 'stale program brought by a tired and lazy government'.

However, these responses lack both meaning and impact. So far, such reactions have been continuously manifested on the policies and programs presented in the Parliament. However, the government has never paid attention to those responses. The government has not dared to accept the truth as Gotha's story character Jujuman's sister-in-law called Vinaju as 'Sanudidi's Poi'. What happened during the Panchayat period is repeated today. Chhattus did not like Panchas during Panchayat period.

Even now those same Chhattu dominate the regime. Because of their own vested interests, the party leaders are protecting those holidays. Whichever party forms the government, its top leaders surround themselves with those who support their unsentimental views.

The so-called 'top' men can't decide who to appoint to an influential position. The country's so-called thoughtful leaders support oligarchy. Leaders like people who are fearless in their thinking.

In this situation, the policies and programs presented in the parliament by the allegedly powerful government formed by the Nepali Congress and UML have followed the parliamentary tradition. The biggest deficiency in the government's policies is the policy itself. Development programs are always ritualistic. The government has neither understood the needs of the poor and vulnerable people of Nepal, nor has it studied the actual situation of the country.

is only a political method. The goal is the development of the people. However, no one who has been in political leadership has been able to show the courage and courage to draw a blueprint for development. Either way, today's political parties lack imaginative and talented people. The leaders of the party seem to be in the mindset of 'get it, share it and eat it'. 

This columnist is a well-known economist Dr. Devendraraj Pandey once said: What will leaders do when they have not learned 'governance'? The people who are in leadership do not imagine to prepare the blueprint of development according to the wishes of the people, they get confused in self-centered politics, and how will the country develop?

Currently Nepal's important agricultural sector is neglected. The situation of industry and business is also not strong. The government has no 'formal' grip on hydropower generation. It is not easy for businessmen to invest in power generation. Whatever beneficial avenues of development there were, they have become dilapidated. What is happening now is in foreign employment: garbage also comes that way, grass also comes that way. The Minister of Labor of the country himself says - 'There is no alternative to foreign employment for now.' Corruption shines in the collusion of leaders and employees. Governments so far seem indifferent to the utilization of labor force.

Congress, UML, Maoist and other party leaders do not seem to have any interest in solving it. If there was such an interest in the leaders, there would not have been a fundamental change in the past ten years. However, there was no qualitative improvement in government operations. Today's decision-makers, leaders, ministers and industrialists do not have a sense of patriotism. 

The government should be alert and aware in the current situation where the world situation is becoming uncomfortable. In particular, America's growing absolutism towards developing countries is not favorable to us. Friendly countries have helped a lot in the basic development of Nepal. However, their perception towards us was not positive.

Julia Chang Block, who landed as the US ambassador to Nepal during the parliamentary democracy period, once said - a poor country like Nepal has no chance of maintaining democracy. For that, the per capita income of every Nepali should be seven thousand dollars. However, the Nepali people showed their worth. Nepali people have kept their faith in democracy till today.

We cannot depend on developed countries when they are calculating their own profits and losses. Our leadership did not look for ways to involve people in future planning. Encouraged the people to wash dishes and work. Today the fields of the country are barren.

People are ready to do anything to earn money. Educated and talented youths could earn money through foreign employment. However, the situation is opposite. Young people who carry the love of their country in their hearts are forced to go abroad with the Nepali flag wrapped around their necks.

It is said that in a federal system of governance, the government reaches the people's doorsteps. People have many expectations from the state and local government. However, the current reality is different. On the one hand, the federal government has strangled the provincial and local governments, on the other hand, the federal and local governments have not been able to work together with strength. Federal government leaders do not seem to be in favor of giving power to state and local governments. Nor are provincial leaders in a position to challenge central leaders.

Lately, not a single person has been seen on our political map who can face greed and infatuation. There is a complete lack of personalities who have the courage and strength to speak the truth in political parties. If you look at the ruling circle, everyone is concerned about themselves and their children. No one has a sense of patriotism. The country is gradually sinking into corruption.

Due to the ignorance and selfish thinking of those in power, the society is on the way to decline. The country has an elected parliament, which occasionally appears as a national comedy club. It is not that the parliamentarians do not know that the country is moving towards continuous decline.
