During a recent podcast appearance, actress Manisha Koirala discussed the political situation in Nepal, expressing her belief that the constitution should have made space for the monarchy. She admitted that the constitution has failed to provide justice for the citizens. Koirala comes from a distinguished political lineage; her father, Prakash Koirala, held a ministerial position in Nepal, and her grandfather, BP Koirala, was the nation’s first prime minister.
Koirala reflected on why governments in Nepal are unstable. She noted her long-standing critical view of the current political climate. She shared that she has understood politics since her childhood, hearing from her father that politics is a service for the people. She remembers her father describing politics as a dream, which, when it becomes detached from reality, causes problems.
