Last Friday's Kantipur, one could read the thoughts of Jainendra Jivan about the character and tendencies of the Nepali Congress. Although I mostly agree with his article, I could not agree on some things.

Some of the achievements of the liberal economic policy taken during Girijababu's time have been discussed in the article, but the shell of that liberal economic policy was torn down and the major industrial factories of the country were destroyed. This harsh reality has not been forgotten by the Amnepali public, even the Congressmen and some people who prefer to call themselves economists. As far as hearing goes, industries acquired from Communist countries (especially China and Russia) were targeted by Congress for liberal economic policies to please India and America. Therefore, although there are some bright sides of the liberal economic policy, there are no less dark sides.

In 2051, despite having a convenient majority government, it was Girijababu's big mistake to dissolve the parliament and go to the mid-term elections. Which Ganeshmanji called 'Himalayan blunder'. In fact, it was an unforgivable mistake as big as the Himalayas. Since that incident, Nepal's politics has become like a train running away from a leak, which still does not seem to be able to catch the leak in a reliable and trustworthy way. Another big mistake of Girijababu is not realizing that Prachanda is going to 'use and throw' easily by showing him the green grass that will make him the first president of the country. The main reason for the failure to detect that move was because the then Home Minister Krishna Sitaula was too trusting of a crooked Congressman. At the end of the article, one cannot disagree with the author's opinion that the old leaders should hand over the responsibilities of the party to the youth leaders. However, even those who are known as youth leaders are in line with the popular saying in Nepali society, "hope, don't rely".
