KATHMANDU: Former Prime Minister Dr. Baburam Bhattarai has asked the politicians protesting against secularism, federalism, and republic state if they preferred the garbage accumulated by the 240-year-old monarchy to the vices not curbed by the government after the establishment of federal democracy in the country.
He was hinting at the increasing movements of the monarchists in the country.
Referring to the nationwide agitation of the Rastriya Prajatantra Party (RPP) in support of the monarchy and Hindu state, former PM and leader of Janata Samajbadi Party Dr. Bhattarai has accused the royalists of encouraging them to fish in murky waters.
He has also criticized Prime Minister KP Oli for the wrongs people have been blaming the system for.
“Here is the question to the monarchists who are eager to fish in the murky waters of Oli’s misrule,” Bhattarai has tweeted in his social media Twitter, “If the republic does not get rid of the tyranny, poverty, unemployment, corruption, ethnic-regional and gender discrimination accumulated by the monarchy for 240 years in the span of 12 years, should we opt to clean it or prefer the filth?”
