The decision of opposition parties
including NC and UML to hit the streets beginning January 19, as reported in “Opposition
parties set to hit the streets to oust govt” (THT, January 16), to oust Dr.
Baburam Bhattarai (BRB) led coalition government will remain nothing but to
offering him more time to stay in PM’s chair rather than ousting him. This will
remain a fruitless effort of the opposition and bear no concrete result in
their plan considering at this time the degree of enthusiasm of the general
people. They (the people) are tired of both the government and the opposition
who completely betrayed their sentiments, hardships and difficult days with the
sky-rocketed market prices, acute power shortage, and acute shortages of
drinking water, complete loss of law and order situation.
If we carefully looked in the past, what
did the opposition do to fight with the government to control and minimize
these difficulties? Because of their insensible and irresponsible acts, BRB
with the support of United Mashesi Front played political trick to mercilessly
kill the CA without achieving its objective. Both the government and the
opposition are equally responsible for the ongoing political stalemate and the
constitutional crisis. Why should the people join with the opposition in the
streets for their claim to simply oust the government? There is, no doubt, that
the BRB led government should go sooner than later by judging its autocratic, anti-people
and anti-national performances.
