It is said that there are no permanent enemies or friends in politics, only permanent interests and interests. It is not that both Prime Minister and UML President KP Sharma Oli and former President Bidya Devi Bhandari are not aware of this. However, these two 'political friends', who were once close, never thought that the warm relationship would one day become bitter and hostile.

politics is brutal. At this time, Oli and Bhandari are facing each other 'brutally'. Bhandari wants to return to UML politics anyway. His eyes are on Oli's throne. Oli wants to stop him by any means.

In particular, Oli is the one who inspired ex-president Bhandari to return to the leadership of UML. Not only in the inner rooms, but also in the media interviews, Oli advocated returning to active politics after leaving the presidency. Now he is reminding Bhandari of the dignity of the post of President. However, Bhandari neither understood the dignity of the President while in office, nor is she ready to understand it now. Calling him the former vice-president of UML more than the honor of the former president gives him a sense of belonging, perhaps . So she is trying to return to UML . 

After all, why is there so much love for UML in Bhandari? Does she feel more connected to the introduction of UML ? Why would a person who has reached the highest position of the country and has exercised power try to get the position again? Which psychology will be inspired by the desire for power? These questions naturally arise when you see the infatuation awakened in Bhandari. 

Bhandari has submitted a document that she wants to be active in politics again to serve the society and the country. But, should the moral value and dignity be exceeded for the service of the society and the country? Certainly, the constitution does not prevent the former president from entering politics. It's just a matter of individual discretion. However, as a former president, cannot be active for the country/society service ? When looking for

examples, many examples are found of former presidents contributing to society and the country without returning to day-to-day politics. For example, South African President Nelson Mandela worked to restore human rights and peace. He used to say, 'The combination of wisdom and harmony is strengthened even after becoming the president.' 

or Bhandari is guided by the psychology, let her know . However, the UML passion awakened in him is pointless and unjustified. US President Jimmy Carter said after retiring, "Now I am free". I have a life and an opportunity to make it meaningful . The opportunity to do what feels right has come.' After retirement, Carter focused on advocating for fair elections, promoting democracy and peace processes in different parts of the world.

You don't have to go far to find an example, the first president of Nepal, Dr. Ramvaran Yadav has saved his post-retirement dignity by limiting himself to the civilian level. After his retirement, he expressed his commitment to give suggestions if necessary in the interest of the country, but not to return to politics, which he is still doing. 

Bhandari also has many such options that can not be returned to UML . The first thing is that if she does not turn to active politics and makes herself active socially, she can establish a good tradition. It is not a prudent step to trample moral values ​​by saying that there is no obstacle in the constitution or law. 

Second, she can remain active by campaigning against women's education and discrimination. For example, in the Far West, many campaigns have been launched against the practice of chaupadi, but even today, women are forced to be killed by snakebites in Chaugoth. If she is active against such social superstitions and stereotypes as a former president, she will get support not only from the ranks of UML workers, but also from the common people. 

Thirdly, the experience of a person who has reached a high position like the president, the knowledge is useful for the new generation in nation building . She can also think in the way of transfer of knowledge and experience . For example, she can document her knowledge and experience through writing a book, join in various interactions and connect with the new generation . Fourth, she can continue to develop the leadership of Nepali women.

She can devote herself to many other such creative endeavors . However, the irony of Nepali politics is that after retirement or should retire, the political leadership continues to wander in the mirage of power politics . A well-known Lord Acton has already said, "After gaining power, people fear losing it". The fear of losing power leads people to the attitude of returning to power again and again.'

Some political leaders think that without them, everything will sink and the country will fail. Only a few weeks ago, Maoist Chairman Pushpa Kamal Dahal (Prachand) said in a public event, "I feel that the pillar of politics will collapse if he leaves Gurlyam Gurlum." Similarly, even when the system and method of institutional succession is weak, the same person is sitting at the head of power and power. And, unfulfilled ambitions, illusions of public support, and self-centered thinking also keep a person in the trap of power-lust.

Bhandari is guided by the psychology, let her know . However, the UML passion awakened in him is pointless and unjustified. More importantly, even the large ranks of UML workers do not want to see him return to UML . According to Rajendra Gautam, the leader of the propaganda department, almost 99 percent of the delegates participating in the legislative convention of the UML have voted in favor of the establishment . In other words, whatever Oli wanted, the second legislative convention of UML has ended by addressing his interest. 

Oli mainly had two interests. First, he wanted to systematically remove the age limit of 70 years and the provision of only two terms in executive office from the constitution . Despite the strong opinion within the party that this democratic law should not be amended, leader Oli, the leader of the factionalism, removed this provision with the intention of repeating himself in the leadership of the coming days. However, the 70-year-old leadership age limit and the provision of two terms in the executive position were included in the statute through his efforts. 

Secondly, he did not like former President Bhandari's attempt to return to UML. He had already closed the door to return to UML by canceling the membership of Bhandari, which was said to have been renewed. However, Bhandari has 'begged' to raise this issue in the legislative assembly. She appealed to the workers gathered at Godavari through letters and video messages. After the appeal, some representatives participating in the convention held the opinion that he should not be stopped from joining the UML. However, Oli did not accept this suggestion from the participating representatives. And, the Legislative Assembly also blocked the way for him to return to UML . 

The majority of congress representatives have asked to keep the democratic culture alive by saying that a person sitting in a dignified institution like the president should not return to active politics. Even if the UMLs say this keeping in mind the domestic political factional demand and balance, this is the right conclusion . However, this legislative convention could not follow the democratic tradition very much. 

Basically, this convention was focused on creating a base to bring Oli back to the leadership and stopping Bhandari . The internal democracy of UML, which is called for domestic democracy, has rusted. UML could not raise this issue strongly. Yesterday, the UMLs, who claimed that the internal democracy was strengthened when the age limit of seventy years and the two-year tenure was implemented, have now declared Oli as Sarvesarva without any question. Why was the seventy-year age limit and two-year tenure appropriate yesterday, why was it necessary to revise it today? There was not much discussion. These discussions and discussions bowed before Oli.  The issue of

leadership transfer and succession became a distant issue . No one was worried that UML was getting distracted from the issues of public life and people. The issue of factionalism and unhealthy competition within the party became a formal issue. The report released by UML now is not without stories of distortions that have grown up within this party . Issues of conduct ranging from the flamboyant lifestyle of the leadership to sexual deviance adorned the report . These issues, which should improve and strengthen party life, became mere rituals . Apart from a small number, everyone unanimously cheered Oli. 

Oli has dominated the UML for the past decade. Individualism and Oli totalitarianism have grown . As much as they came against Oli, they got lakhs. Some of them may have baked the bread of opportunism by compromising with Oli's monopoly, but most of them are not considering him as a leader. Instead, he has accepted as a 'strong and bold' leader. 

Speaking more immediately, Oli has recently returned from a visit to the northern neighborhood of China. He has not done anything unusual in China, the Prime Minister of a sovereign country has fulfilled the responsibility of raising their problems and issues to the neighborhood. He expressed his objections after India and China agreed to open a trade route using Nepalese land.

It is a positive aspect that Oli is not afraid of his words in the background of our political leadership, which is a shambles in front of the big neighborhood . However, the UMLs have interpreted this as Oli's 'digvijaya'. Oli, who recently came from China as a "victory", has been considered as an unopposed leader by the Legislative Assembly. Oli has prepared the basis to be re-elected as a leader in the upcoming convention. 

In this context and background, former President Bhandari tried to challenge Oli's 'Ekchhatra Raj' but failed. At least the issue of taking away the renewed membership was raised in the legislative convention, but it was whispered without becoming the main issue. Bhandari, who persuaded the cadres to raise the issue of renewing their membership, has now become more innocent.
