Manifesto for the upcoming election: The essence of Gen Z movement should be its spine

Summary

The upcoming parliamentary election in Nepal features prime ministerial candidates from major parties overshadowing manifestos, which should focus on good governance and anti-corruption to honor the Gen Z movement's legacy.

Key Points
  • The upcoming parliamentary elections in Nepal are highlighted by prime ministerial candidates from major parties rather than detailed manifestos.
  • Political parties like Nepali Congress, UML, and Rastriya Swatantra Party have nominated prominent candidates including Gagan Thapa, K P Oli, and Balen Shah respectively.
  • Manifestos historically impact elections but have been overshadowed recently; current manifestos should incorporate the demands of Gen Z, focusing on eradicating corruption and ensuring good governance.
  • Post-earthquake reconstruction offers a chance to integrate traditional architectural identity, which was missed previously, and manifestos should address such cultural and political realities.
