Kaski. Nepali Congress Chairman Gagan Kumar Thapa has said that the country is now in a state of extreme despair and mistrust, so there is a need for power to manage the country. Addressing the meeting of the Congress Party, he said that instead of spreading excitement, the Congress should play a role as a force that patiently helps the country.
He said that there is a deep anger among the citizens in the society and extreme distrust towards the mechanisms of the state. We need the power to handle the country now.
Anyone who can start a fire needs patience and ability to put it out. We have to keep that strength," he said, "Anything can spread excitement, but we need the power to do politics of consciousness. That is Congress. We will fix it, we will handle it," President Thapa said that there is deep dissatisfaction among the citizens and that they should be answered through reforms in the coming days.
