KATHMANDU: Interim Prime Minister Sushila Karki has pledged that her government will work with firm resolve to meet the aspirations of the people.
Addressing a special ceremony at the Army Pavilion on the occasion of Constitution Day on Friday, Karki said the government is committed to internalizing the spirit of past movements while addressing current national priorities.
Speaking at the event, the Prime Minister highlighted transparency in government operations, equality before the law, eradication of corruption, good governance, and development as shared expectations across generations and key elements of the national agenda. She assured that the current government is committed to translating these priorities into action to meet public expectations.
Karki clarified that she did not assume the premiership out of personal ambition but took leadership during a period of national crisis at the request of the younger generation to manage the transition effectively.
She reiterated that, according to Nepal’s constitution, the government will transfer authority to a representative administration through elections to the House of Representatives within six months.
The Prime Minister also noted that the current situation partly stems from failures to uphold democratic principles, legal governance, and good administrative practices. She stressed the importance of rebuilding structures damaged during the Gen-Z protests and recovering from losses suffered by businesses, calling for collective support in these efforts.
