The political report presented by the party's acting chairman DP Aryal at the extended meeting of the central committee of the National Independent Party (NISP) that began on Friday in Sauraha, Chitwan, reviewed the party's past role and presented views on its future course of action. The report states that the party will not survive solely on the popularity of its leader.
Even though the RSVP has gained good public opinion in a short time, a strong organizational structure is required to make it sustainable, Aryal has mentioned in the report.
‘The party cannot survive on the popularity of the leader alone.’ The report states on page 15 that the party should be present and active in every municipality, ward and village.’ It has also been acknowledged that there has been confusion within the party regarding its organizational form and structure for a long time.
‘The slow pace of party expansion, lack of defined scope and responsibilities, weak proportional and inclusive representation, centrally controlled organizational structure, interest in populism and various so-called issues targeted at us and weak resistance to them, weak internal information system and lack of two-way interaction between leaders and members are also our weaknesses,’ the report states.
The report states that despite establishing itself rapidly in the parliamentary field, it has not worked in the organizational field. For one and a half years, ‘To form an organization or not?’ The report mentions that it is difficult to gain momentum while getting bogged down in the debate of what and how much to build. It is said that the fact-free criticism of the leadership in the party, the increased ambition of the leaders, and the tendency not to acknowledge the existence of others have raised concerns.
Similarly, the report also commented on the issue of party reform and welcoming famous personalities. 'There is 100 percent agreement on the issue of party reform and welcoming famous personalities.' However, the undeclared policy of importing the original leadership under the pretext of reform and welcoming and the propaganda accordingly could not be accepted,' the report says.
Similarly, while preparing for the elections, Acting President Aryal has also proposed to strengthen the party's presence in both mainstream media and social media and to create a mechanism to refute misinformation and rumors. The report defends the party's agitation in support of party President Ravi Lamichhane after he was arrested last year in the cooperative fraud case.
‘The entire party ranks are involved in a conspiracy against him because the then government made baseless accusations motivated by political interests. If they try to weaken the party by defaming the leadership, it is our duty to take institutional action against them,’ the report states.
Although critics and well-wishers have questioned the party’s reliance on the personality of a leader and its taking ownership of his personal problems, the party is aware that this is part of the conspiracy.
