Prof. Dr. Yuvaraj Sangraula Discusses 'Warpar'

Summary

Prof. Dr. Yuvaraj Sangraula says the narrative that politics has ruined Nepal is exaggerated and argues that the country needs meritocracy, technocracy, and stronger institutional policy-making. He criticizes both old parties and the Rastriya Swatantra Party for weakening governance, while warning that the economy is suffering from falling production, rising imports, inflation, and anti-business policies.
