Harak's comments aimed at Ravi: Those who renounced Nepali citizenship will make the country!

Kathmandu. Hark Sampang, mayor of Dharam sub-metropolitan city, is known for his sharp criticism on social media. He will immediately respond to any topic that he does not like or feel. He is popular because he himself works and gets others to donate labor, but he is also criticized because of social media.

Recently, he has made a sharp attack against the President of the Rashtriya Swatantra Party, Ravi Lamichhane, who is in prison. Hark writes, 'Do you believe that those who gave up their Nepalese citizenship for foreign service facilities will build and save the country because they have been imprisoned for nine cases?'

Ravi Lamichhane had recently been interviewed by the Movement Investigation Committee regarding his release from prison in the Zenji movement. Hark has also taken a dig at that matter. "Does the government take the statements of those in jail or does the court not understand?" he wrote.

Cases against Ravi are pending in various courts regarding cooperative fraud, asset laundering, etc. After the Genji movement brought down the government of the mainstream political parties, the process of opening a new political party and preparing for the elections is fast. In this context, Mayor Sampang has also registered the Labor Culture Party.

Amidst the pressure of meeting new parties and independent people, Sampang sometimes criticizes Ravi and sometimes Balendra Shah. Due to this issue, he is also being criticized. In Hark's status, Dhankumari Rai writes, "Pepper is shriveled by its own smell. If it is mercury, you have no time." Similarly, Ishwar Bhandari wrote, "Mayor Saab should not follow others' footsteps and move forward in his own way." He is the kind of leader the people want.'
