Efforts on for national development: PM Oli

The Fair is organized by the Federation of Women Entrepreneurs’ Association of Nepal. “A group is involved to push the country back. Ninety-seven per cent of people now have access to electricity service.

We have been carrying out activities to increase power production”, the PM shared. Expressing happiness over the young generation’s enthusiasm and excellence in information technology, the PM viewed, “This is the era of computers and AI technology. Women have done much. Today’s fair is especially for mothers and now the daughter generation should pay attention for entrepreneurship.

I want to thank for their initiatives of sisters.” He further said the country could not be developed as long as women are left behind. The opposition is raising a non-issue in parliament. Speaking on the recent political development, PM Oli blamed the opposition parties were obstructing parliament over an unnecessary issue. A non-issue- removal of a government employee- surfaced in the parliament, he said, adding that the government was preparing to pass the ordinances with replacement bills.

But, such obstruction would hamper the parliament schedule, the PM expressed worry. “When the competent person was given the leadership role in the same institution, it was not praised. But, those who do not deserve it were given unnecessary praise,” he said, viewing that attempts were being made to create terror in the name of protest. PM Oli further said there will be rallies at two places in the Kathmandu Valley.

“There is no point in making a hill out of a mole in connection with the opposition’s demonstration,” he reminded. Nepal’s development was realized with the struggle and sacrifice of women as well, Oli observed. The development slowed during the panchayat has been accelerated at present with democracy in place, he shared. According to him, the projects of strategic importance were forwarded, so it was not good to panic.

On the occasion, the Head of the government honoured Chairperson of Maiti Nepal, Anuradha Koirala, for her activism against human trafficking, and Prem Kumari Pun of Ghorahi, Dang, for her contribution in the sector of enterprises. President of the Federation, Shova Gyawali, shared the information that the district association under the Federation was formed in 72 districts.

She added that the Federation has been advocating for women entrepreneurship, their concerns and challenges. The event runs till March 31, and the organizer has expected the transaction of more than Rs 22.5 million during the event.
