Prem Suwal, Member of Parliament (MP) of Nepal Workers and Peasants Party (NWPP), has said that the assets worth billions of rupees amassed by then Rana Prime Ministers by sending Nepali youths to Gurkha recruitment should be confiscated.
Delivering his views on the policies and programs of the next fiscal year in the House meeting today, Suwal said the Nepal government should confiscate the movable and immovable properties worth billions of rupees amassed by the then Rana Prime Ministers by sending Nepali youths to the Gurkha recruitment should be confiscated.
He further said that all the 24 policies and programs introduced in the past 34 years since the advent of the multi-party system have proven ineffective.
After Nepal adopted the multi-party system, Nepali Congress brought policies and programs 11 times, CPN (UML) five times, CPN (Maoist Center) four times and other parties four times. He said that if those policies and programs were effective, 8 million youths would not be forced to go abroad for foreign employment.
"If 24 policies and programs introduced by Nepali Congress (11), UML (5), Maoist Center (4) and others 4 in the past 34 years were successful, the country's trade deficit would not be 20 trillion, public debt 20 trillion, and 8 million youths would not be forced to work in 171 countries abroad,” he asserted.
He said that there is nothing new in the current policies programs to improve the troubled economy. He further said that this policy and program has nothing except bare term ‘socialism’ which does not lead the country toward socialism.
Similarly, he said that the assets of high-ranking officials and large private industrialists should be investigated every year and made public.
He said that it is necessary to investigate the assets of the prime ministers, ministers, parliamentarians and high-ranking officials since the Panchayat era and take strict action against the corrupt.
Complaining that the ruling party and the main opposition did not allow other parties to speak in the parliament, they should give enough time to other parties to deliver their views.
