BABBLES

Believe it or not, financially, federalism has become unsuccessful. The government expenditure has increased tremendously on the general sector or say functioning of the new structures – seven provinces and 753 local bodies. Mostly, the expenditure includes salaries and allowances for those people’s representatives. This year, the government is raising domestic and foreign debts just to manage salaries and allowances for government service holders. Those senior citizens are receiving four thousand rupees as the senior citizen allowance.
The government has decided to cut off around 32 billion rupees worth of grant support to the provinces and local bodies as it failed to manage the fund.
For a sound and prosperous economy, the percentage of capital expenditure should be higher than the general sector expenditure. The situation in Nepal is just adverse. Those political leaders, who were involved in writing the present constitution, have understood the fact that federalism has failed and it will be very costly to continue this system for the nation. However, they don’t want to accept that they have failed.
Bankruptcy
The government is unable to pay around 80 billion rupees worth payment of the construction contractors. The government is needed to pay around 10 billion rupees as a pension for retired teachers. Around 10 billion rupees the government has to pay civil servicemen’s pension. The government has to pay around five billion rupees as social security allowance. Around 20 billion rupees should be managed to payback debts and interests. In total, there is a deficit account of the government is 120 billion rupees. Moreover, one billion rupees that Prime Minister Pushpakamal Dahal has decided to distribute to the physically unfit PLAs.
Is the government intended to declare bankruptcy?
Oli’s mental health
Is UML chair K.P. Sharma Oli’s mental health okay, it is a burning question. Oli is a whimsical leader, that we all know. Some had even remarked that he is continuously taking medicine for the functioning of the transplanted kidney in his body. The medicine stimulates him and during the effect of the medicine, he speaks whatsoever he feels.
Oli’s blames against the formal Royal family could also be the effect of the medicine, said a medical expert.
New party following old practice
The new generation of voters has a strong belief in the Rastriya Swatantra Party but the party is not clear about its ideology. The party believes in the present political system, which has already failed. The party is taking benefit of confusion in society. In reality, the Christian followers have voted for the party. The role of the party is also not clear. It wanted to join the government and bargain for ministerial portfolios. Moreover, the party is based on the stunt created by its chairman Rabi Lamichhane.
QUOTES OF THE WEEK
Last year, the government had to announce that the country was facing a financial crunch. The political parties in the government tried to hide it by showing fake details.
Those pro-republicans are still trying to portray that the country’s economy is in a good position, however, the fact is the present account statement of the government which is in an acute deficit.
Santosh Bhushal
Crowds of people who write statuses on Facebook while sitting with the leader and flattering them can be seen everywhere.
Hari Babu Malla
The Election Commission should not recognize the application for the registration of a party that carries the assumption of a multinational state.
Keshav Prasad Bhattarai
Still, they believe Prachanda is everything!
Chimariya Manoj

The country will not be saved only by reforming the republic and the republican system, it must be completely replaced!
Khagindra Raj Poudel
The mini-kings began to go abroad even when they suffer from a cough.
Dr Prakashchandra Lohani
Even if corruption is committed, the case should not be prosecuted after 5 years; CIAA cannot prosecute the policy-based corruption of the government; government prepares to distribute 1 billion rupees for those unfit combatants! A daylight loot from the leaders in the government.
Chandramani Gautam
The present constitution of Nepal or Nepal? We should choose one. Now both cannot stay together. Let’s not delay.
Sunil Raj Upreti
The country is going to be bankrupt while providing services and facilities to the people’s representatives and their workers.
Rajesh Ahiraj
60 billion rupees is yet to be paid to the construction contractors. The pace of development projects is slow, current expenses have to be met from loans.
At such a time, the president’s unnatural and expensive foreign treatment trip and the government preparing to distribute billions in the name of incompetent fighters is an extreme abuse of power. Give jobs not money to the incompetent combatants.
Rajendra Lingden
Even though there is an extreme economic crisis, there is no money to pay the employees and from where will the money come to distribute to the unfit combatants? Does the Nepali Congress also share this idea?
Bishodip Lamichhane
Giving 2 lakh rupees to each unfit combatant is not a solution but a burden on the government. It would be wonderful if that money was used to open a manufacturing factory employing unqualified combatants and their families.
Arjun Poudel
Why did the President go abroad for treatment? Why not doctors and hospitals in Nepal efficient and capable? If they are not capable, why are the hospitals not closed?
