KATHMANDU: Nepali Congress (NC) senior leader Ramchandra Poudel said the party should adopt the politics of principle and ideals shunning the politics of mathematical calculation for attaining state power.
At a discussion organized by the Social Democracy Study Centre with NC leaders and cadres of the Bagmati State today, leader Poudel said it was unfortunate to think that ‘one would make his/her house by demolishing the house of another person’, while indicating the contemporary politics.
He asserted that the NC attaining power after the split of the communists would not give an outlet to the country but stressed that there is a need of the NC marked with a vision for mission to resolve all residual issues of the country. In addition, he pledged to build the Congress with a vision for the varied mission in the upcoming 14th general convention.
Underlining that the almost two-thirds majority votes the communists have obtained should be utilized for resolving the country’s problems, he said it was a shame to indulge in the abyss of corruption and infighting for power when the country was passing through a crisis.
The former Deputy Prime Minister also claimed that the capitalist and communist countries in the world have already become consumerists and asserted that the problems emerged in the globe would be resolved by democratic socialism rather not by capitalism and communism.
Arguing that Gandhism is not socialism but the socialism based on Gandhism would save the world, he said the capitalists have handed over all the state responsibilities to the traders and communists have opted for creating a closed society by suppressing the people.
