Kathmandu. Coordinator of the Communist Party of Nepal (CPN), Pushpa Kamal Dahal ‘Prachanda’, has accused the government of failing to rescue and mobilize people during the disaster. <\/p>\n
Speaking in the meeting of the House of Representatives on Wednesday, Prachanda said that he was confident that the government would take good initiatives after seeing the activism of the Prime Minister and the Home Minister on the day of the floods. However, he said that the government’s performance has been sluggish in the last few days. <\/p>\n
He said, “We were with the government in this hour of crisis, and we are with it. I had seen the activity of the Prime Minister and the Home Minister on the day of the floods. After seeing that, I had said that they are very active and I am confident that a good initiative will be taken. Prachanda said that although the Nepal Army played an important role in rescue and relief operations by taking risk, it has not been able to mobilize all levels of government and the general public in confidence to deal with the disaster.<\/p>\n
He said, “The work done by the army was also seen. The army played a role in rescue and relief by taking a lot of risks. But the way all levels of government and the general public should have been mobilized to deal with this catastrophe, it did not happen. The army was mobilized, but there was no mass mobilization. If the mobilization of the people is not connected with the mobilization of the army, then it will be difficult to solve this problem.<\/p>\n
Stating that there was a difference between the government’s initial activism and the working style of the recent days, Prachanda said there was widespread dissatisfaction among the people towards the rescue work. <\/p>\n
“There was a difference between the promptness of the government in the first day and its working style in the last day. Most of the complaints are that the government has failed in the rescue operation. It cannot be hidden or lied. The government has failed in rescue and mass mobilization,” he said. <\/p>\n
He said that there was a delay in the immediate initiative for rescue and the government showed a ‘can do everything’ attitude in the first two days. Prachanda stressed on the need to develop a culture where political parties and leaders can call each other’s good deeds good. <\/p>\n
He said, “We politicians are losing the courage, status and culture that we can usually call the good work done by others good. We have a little more thirst to publicize that the bad we do is also good.” He said that the disaster in Bhotekoshi has further confirmed the danger Nepal is facing due to climate change. He stressed the need to draw the attention of the international community by raising the issue of climate justice in the international forum. <\/p>\n
“In my view, the horrific catastrophe in Bhotekoshi has proved well the studies done yesterday, the conclusions of the scientists and the appeals I made in international forums. The issue of climate justice should be raised in all international forums and if the international community is not brought here by drawing the attention of the international community soon, Nepal will not be able to face this crisis alone,” Prachanda said. <\/p>\n
He also expressed dissatisfaction over the Prime Minister’s return to the House of Representatives without holding talks with the lawmakers. <\/p>\n
‘The Prime Minister comes, he goes in the House without even looking at anyone’s face. What is this way? It is not like this. The Prime Minister is the Prime Minister of all of us. Everyone has said that we will help you, but what is the way to not see anyone’s face? If you do not try to win the trust of everyone, then time will not wait for him,” he said. <\/p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
