Gen-G rebellion raises questions: Mahesh Acharya

What you should know

Nepali Congress leader Mahesh Acharya has said that parties should make good governance the main agenda in the upcoming elections in the heartland of the Gen-G rebellion.

In a detailed conversation with Kantipur, he said that the Gen-G movement is in search of good governance, saying, "Let the economic sector take a leap forward soon. Let income-earning opportunities increase. Let employment opportunities increase. There should be no painful migration. Let there be transparency. Let the people hear and see what the government and the state are saying to do."

He said that there are no major differences in political views among the parties in Nepal, and that there are similar similarities in the political documents of the parties. Acharya said that the Gen-G movement has shown potential and said that since the youth have seen the world through the internet, they can ask questions. He said, "The youth have asked the question - why has Nepal not become like other countries in the world? Four million youth abroad have asked - why has Nepal not become like other countries? Our important years have been wasted due to the incompetence of the leadership, corruption in the administrative machinery, policy confusion, and vying for power. This is the question raised by the Gen-G movement. This is also a reality.

The current new generation does not blindly accept anything that their parents or the government say. They ask questions.

He said that in recent years, voters have also become aware and have started asking why they did not fulfill the promises they made last time. He said that the Gen-G rebellion has been raised, and said, ‘The current new generation does not blindly accept anything that their parents or the government say. They ask questions. No party can move forward without answering their questions and satisfying them.’

Acharya said that Nepal’s society is changing rapidly and democracy has taught every political leadership to ask questions. He said, ‘I feel confident in this sense that a big change has taken place in my party now. A leadership has come that can communicate with the new generation. The previous generation was not able to communicate. The opportunities to ask questions were also limited. The current leadership should sit with the youth and try to listen to questions and find answers together. Such changes are inevitable in other parties as well.'
