Genji activist Miraj Dhungana has criticized the government for not taking initiative for dialogue and resolving the problem despite the long protests against caste discrimination and untouchability. <\/p>\n<p> Participating in the demonstration at Maitighar Mandala for the past 209 days with the slogan &#8220;<\/p>\n<p>Government, the room is empty?&#8221; said Dhungana said it was unfortunate that the problem of caste-based discrimination persisted even in the 21st century. He lamented that the government has not paid any heed to the demands of the women who have been agitating for the past 209 days. <\/p>\n<p> &#8220;For the last 209 days, some women have been sitting at Maitighar against caste discrimination. At least not being called for talks, not even listening to what the agenda is, and even now the situation is closer to the road than the government, it is not befitting of the youth&#8217;s government,&#8221; he said. <\/p>\n<p> He said that although the government was expected to work closely with the citizens, this has not happened in practice. Stating that ending caste discrimination is also the desire of the Genji movement, he said that the government should find solutions to such social problems. Dhungana said that good governance should not be limited only to the absence of corruption in government offices. He said that economic growth, improvement in livelihood, controlling inflation and creating employment and opportunities within the country are also important aspects of good governance. <\/p>\n<p>&#8216;Does good governance mean only in government offices? Or is it economic growth, improvement in livelihood, controlling inflation and having opportunities in the country? He said. <\/p>\n<p> He commented that the work has not been done as per the expectations of the people towards the present government and that a third political pole could be needed as an alternative to the government. He said that if the Rastriya Swatantra Party could not work according to the expectations and support of the people, it should be displaced from the legal process. <\/p>\n<p> &#8220;The Nepali people have supported Asha. If they do not work as expected, they must be displaced. They should be displaced in a legal way and a new force should come after the insurrection,&#8221; he said. <\/p>\n<p> Dhungana also made it clear that they would not back down from the agitation just because they criticized the present government. Recalling that they had disagreed with the process of forming the government before the elections, he said that they would continue to be in the opposition ideologically. <\/p>\n<p> &#8220;I&#8217;d like to be optimistic personally, but if you ask frankly, it&#8217;s not going to happen before the election,&#8221; he said.<\/p>\n<p>Today, in seven months, I have been proved right. He said that he had been criticizing KP Sharma Oli, Sushila Karki and the present government in the past. He said that although he has personal relations in his place, politically he is against the present government. <\/p>\n<p>&#8216;Personal friendships, personal relationships may have their place. Politically, I am standing as an opponent of him, as an opponent of his government. Our political views do not match,&#8221; he said. <\/p>\n<p> Stating that the government still has the opportunity to work as per the people&#8217;s expectation, Dhungana said that they were ready to struggle ideologically if the country did not move ahead on the path of development and prosperity.<\/p>\n<p>He made it clear that they would move ahead by prioritizing the interest of the nation rather than personal interest. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p><p> <img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" src=\"https:\/\/arthakhabar. com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/photo-14_00c6d246-1024x682. jpg\" class=\"aligncenter size-large\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" \/> <\/p>\n<p> <img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/arthakhabar. com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/photo-13_d0bb1d27-1024x576. jpg\" class=\"aligncenter size-large\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" \/> <\/p>\n<p> <img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/arthakhabar. com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/photo-12_533a5ec1-1024x576. jpg\" class=\"aligncenter size-large\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" \/> <\/p>\n<p> <img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" src=\"https:\/\/arthakhabar. com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/photo-10_a3b1d7fa-1024x682. jpg\" class=\"aligncenter size-large\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" \/> <\/p>\n<p> <img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" src=\"https:\/\/arthakhabar. com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/photo-9_88d4a02d-1024x682. jpg\" class=\"aligncenter size-large\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" \/> <\/p>\n<p> <img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" src=\"https:\/\/arthakhabar. com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/photo-8_1095c4be-1024x682. jpg\" class=\"aligncenter size-large\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" \/> <\/p>\n<p> <img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" src=\"https:\/\/arthakhabar. com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/photo-7_39e4c02e-1024x682. jpg\" class=\"aligncenter size-large\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" \/> <\/p>\n<p> <img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" src=\"https:\/\/arthakhabar. com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/photo-6_1a983afa-1024x682. jpg\" class=\"aligncenter size-large\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" \/> <\/p>\n<p> <img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/arthakhabar. com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/photo-6_ef84dd68-1024x683. jpeg\" class=\"aligncenter size-large\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" \/> <\/p>\n<p> <img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" src=\"https:\/\/arthakhabar. com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/photo-5_8cd6968d-1024x682. jpg\" class=\"aligncenter size-large\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" \/> <\/p>\n<p> <img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"745\" src=\"https:\/\/arthakhabar. com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/photo-4_be5c2324-1024x745. jpg\" class=\"aligncenter size-large\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" \/> <\/p>\n<p> <img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/arthakhabar. com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/photo-4_24e3605d-1024x683. jpeg\" class=\"aligncenter size-large\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" \/> <\/p>\n<p> <img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"707\" src=\"https:\/\/arthakhabar. com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/photo-3_4cd31a6b-1024x707. jpg\" class=\"aligncenter size-large\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" \/> <\/p>\n<p> <img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/arthakhabar. com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/photo-3_a184d311-1024x683. jpeg\" class=\"aligncenter size-large\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" \/> <\/p>\n<p> <img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" src=\"https:\/\/arthakhabar. com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/photo-2_5e0cb4d1-1024x682. jpg\" class=\"aligncenter size-large\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" \/> <\/p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It is not suitable for the government of the youth to be closer to the road than the government: Miraj Dhungana Kathmandu.
