Leader of the Nepali Congress Parliamentary Party, Bhishmaraj Angdembe, expressed full confidence in the current leadership of the Congress and stated his belief that under this leadership, the country will take a new direction.
At a program organized at the National Assembly Hall on Thursday on the occasion of the 44th BP Memorial Day, he emphasized that the leadership must maintain the trust of the party workers and claimed that the Congress would once again guide the country on the right path.
"Under the leadership of the Congress, the country will shed its old skin; this is my firm belief," he said. "Although the leadership may be young in age, it is great in wisdom. You are leading the country; please continue to maintain the trust of the party workers. As a party worker myself, I also pledge to uphold that trust."
Angdembe pointed out that the Congress's socialist philosophy and ideological identity have been overshadowed by the arithmetic of gaining power, and stressed the need to reestablish BP Koirala's core ideas of nationalism, democracy, and socialism.
"BP, five decades ago, put forward a policy of reconciliation to advance nationalism and democracy as complementary to each other," he said. "But today, the Congress's socialist philosophy and ideas have been squeezed, suppressed, and trampled by the arithmetic of gaining power. As a result, the party is on the verge of losing its identity."
He expressed the view that BP Memorial Day should be used as an opportunity to make a new ideological commitment, and stated that the Congress cannot move forward simply by repeating old practices.
In this context, he remarked that reason and logic are weakening in Nepali society, the party, and parliament, and pointed out the need to view politics not from the perspective of profit and loss, but from the viewpoint of the poor, farmers, and ordinary citizens.
