Parties or personality cults?

One sphere where the ‘Afno Manchhe’ culture has really thrived is the political parties of Nepal.

Nepali political parties of the Left, Right and Centre never tire of speaking about democracy. Their concern is often about democracy being in some kind of danger, although it is mostly a case of false flagging. But there is one kind of democracy they rarely talk about—the intra-party sort. Practising internal democracy seems much more difficult than seeking it elsewhere.
