    Deceptive tactics tarnishing Oli’s reputation: UML leader Pokharel

    KATHMANDU: CPN-UML General Secretary Shankar Pokharel has emphasized the crucial role of party Chairman KP Oli in fostering good governance and development, declaring him the most capable individual in these areas.

    In a Facebook post, Pokharel denounced the attacks on Chairman Oli, highlighting that such assaults directly undermine the country’s future and its people.

    He further addressed the deceptive tactics employed to tarnish Oli’s reputation, citing instances where misleading information regarding Oli’s alleged assets has been circulated.

    “Earlier, the Maoists propagated confusion by misrepresenting the new Telecom building in Jawalakhel as Oli’s residence. Now, it appears that the royalists are sowing discord by falsely linking him to investments in Cambodia’s Telecom.”

    Pokhrel said that the propagation of misinformation remains the favored weapon of those with depleted political ideologies.

    He emphasized the necessity to remain vigilant and resolute in the face of such malicious schemes.

    “An attack on the individual most qualified for ensuring Nepal’s progress in terms of good governance and development equates to an attack on the country’s future. Let us not succumb to confusion; instead, let us collectively combat these conspiracies with utmost seriousness,” he asserted.

  • Making Nepali farmers happy

    Making Nepali farmers happy

    Farmer-managed irrigation system (FMIS), which is predominantly a surface irrigation system in Nepal, accounts for 51 percent of the country’s total surface irrigated area and contributes significantly to national food security. With roots dating back a century, this irrigation system possesses robust social capital. Moreover, its significance is growing amidst the challenges posed by rising global warming and energy scarcity.

    Traditional FMIS faces several challenges such as water scarcity, labour shortages due to outward migration, and increased operation and maintenance costs. As a result, many of them have become defunct or significantly reduced command areas in recent years. An illustrative case is the decline in the number of Rajkulos in Nepal.

    While exploring solutions to revive FMIS, one promising solution could lie in integrating it with groundwater-based irrigation systems. Research and pilot initiatives conducted by the International Water Management Institute offer compelling evidence that such integration could effectively address the challenges.

    PM Oli cautions against deceitful remarks made by political leaders

    KATHMANDU: Prime Minister KP Oli has cautioned against remarks being made by leaders of various political parties to deceive the public. He also said the threat to republic federalism was a mere political stunt articulated by some selfish elements.

    Addressing a program in Kathmandu, Tuesday, PM Oli reiterated the government’s commitment to the country’s development and urged political leaders to be loyal to the nation rather than being involved in petty politics.

    The PM came down heavily on CPN-UML senior leader Madhav Kumar Nepal and Maoist Center Pushpa Kamal Dahal ‘Prachanda’ for talking about unity but differing in terms of behavior to achieve unity.

    PM Oli, referring to a recent discussion held by Brihat Nagarik Andolan at Nepal Academy in Kamaladi on Saturday, slammed Nepal’s remarks in which Nepal had said he had done everything possible for unity of the party.

    He also criticized Maoist Chairman Prachanda for not being responsive when it was time to reunite. He clarified that the Supreme Court had given them 15 days to reunite the UML and Maoist Center but Prachanda “turned a deaf ear” to his call for party merger.

    “I made a phone call to him. However, later it came to my notice that Prachanda snubbed my request,” the PM said.

    He stated that there was no threat to republic federalism and urged political leaders to make meaningful remarks rather than confusing the people.
