Sick leaders, fragile leadership


Having come across a political programme of late, and heard a haranguing speech of some nasty leaders, my epiphany overflowed:

Unlike what our politicos think, Nepalese are conscious and brave enough to opt for the best political change. They fight great revolutions against dictatorships of different incarnations and achieve spectacular political achievements.

They hand these momentous

gains to their leaders to manage but contrary to their aspirations,

politics has always been erosion chequered by constant upheavals and somersaults. The pursuit of developed society of Nepalese, even after decades of severe times, hasn’t materialized yet. The reason behind this lengthy and painful political vortex is failed leadership, besides the dynasties of despots of the past.

Those who proceed to play “the leader” in attempting to build a benevolent society, yearning and evolving for rapid change, without having undergone meticulous self-preparation, self-discipline, vision and patriotism will lead to fiasco.

Our leadership gravely suffers

indiscipline, inability, lack of vision, myopia, schizophrenia and circumlocutory tautology. It is from history

that the circle of arithmetic plot

to form and topple down the

government and to manure the vested interests runs.

The psyche of our leaders revolve around the ministerial berths and engrosses in ministerial felicity. They are the leaders of fancy cars, big talks, grand mansions, expensive wears and delicious cuisines not of the common people and the nation. Dozens of prime ministers and scores of ministers appeared, occupied the chairs, drove sleek cars and enjoyed perks and facilities but none left any significant contribution that could at least be a good beginning to the desired goal of an average Nepali.

A leader cannot stand true and elevate the nation merely by polemics and gimmicks, bullying and baffling, frauds and lies hurled from platforms. Those who wish to transform the society must be capable, visionary, cautious and trustworthy. Not crowds of so-called leaders but a few capable ones are enough to better the nation. True leadership is the strength that it fails immorality and atrocity and enhances peace and prosperity.
