CHITWAN:- Vice President of Rastriya Swatantra Party (RSP), Dr Swarnim Wagle, has said that the RSP is, in fact, a campaign for Nepal’s political renaissance.
Addressing the first general convention of the party, which began here today and coincides with the party’s fourth foundation day, Dr Wagle said the RSP is a political expression of the people’s long-held aspiration for positive change and prosperity.
“Our objective is not only to change the government but also to change the political culture,” he said. The RSP is in favour of a governance system based on conscience, rules and regulations, a merit system and citizen-centred democracy.
He mentioned that the RSP has not come to contest with the old generation but to establish a new political culture. Leader Dr Wagle said that the RSP aims to build a liberal democracy, a competitive economy, an equitable society, and a competent state.
He emphasised the need to create an environment where the youth are not forced to go abroad for opportunities, where farmers and workers can live with dignity, and where entrepreneurs can invest without any fear.
Also, the Finance Minister in the present government, Wagle, mentioned that citizens’ capabilities, institutional strength, and national confidence should be kept at the centre to build a self-reliant and confident Nepal.
Describing the party’s general convention as the beginning of Nepal’s political renaissance, he called on everyone to participate in the campaign to turn despair into hope, anger into construction, and rebellion into transformation.
“This is a declaration of a journey from irresponsibility to accountability, from protectionism to competition, and from misguided politics to result-oriented democracy,” said leader Dr Wagle. RSS
