Political parties responsible for present situation: Rewati Raman Subedi
Kathmandu, 19 April: “The practice and development of journalism during the fifteen years after the restoration of democracy in Nepal has been disappointing”, says journalist Rewati Raman Subedi in an interview to Ruprekha weekly.
“Journalists of Nepal are misusing the term ‘journalism’ as they have crossed the limit of press freedom. Every organization has its definite boundary and if someone tries to cross that boundary, it is not freedom, it is anarchy.”
“Only political organization holds the right to question the constitution but when it comes to Nepal, journalists are attacking the constitution openly. Anarchism is being promoted in the name press freedom.”
“When it comes to blaming the constitution and King for bringing Nepal into this condition, both constitution and the King is blameless as the political parties did not intend to revise the constitution when they were the ruling party and governing the nation. The appeal of seven parties for changing the constitution at this period of time is absurd.”
