&Institutional corruption,abuse of state mechanism, insecurity and price hike are rife&
Kathmandu, September 4
Main Opposition Nepali Congress today said people were not fed-up with the federal system, but with dismal performance of the government.
NC issued the statement around two weeks after the government, calling an all-party meeting, had sought support from all political parties to fight attempts from various quarters to jeopardise federal democratic republic system of governance and the constitution.
Endorsing a resolution in its central working committee meeting that concluded yesterday, the NC concluded that the government move was nothing but a ploy to cover-up its weaknesses and failures.
&People are frustrated with the government dismal performance and it cannot shirk from its responsibility of addressing people concern,& said NC leader Prakash Sharan Mahat addressing a press conference held at the NC headquarters in Sanepa, Lalitpur.
&NC would like to caution all stakeholders about the conspiracy to portray government failure as the failure of the democratic system.&
The NC concluded that one-and-half-year rule by the Nepal Communist Party (NCP)-led government had left people highly disappointed.
It concluded that institutional corruption, abuse of state mechanisms, price hikes, violence, rape, and insecurity were normal in the country.
&The government is attempting to snatch away rights the people earned through long struggle, muzzle freedom of expression, and jeopardise religion and social harmony,& said Mahat.
He warned that NC would launch a decisive movement if the government did not mend its ways.
