Old ways of old parties

A large section of society is fed up with the same-old faces in leadership for decades.

Leaders from major political forces seem alarmed by some new tendencies seen in their members and by the responses they have received from the new generation in the society. The traditional parties have failed even to renew membership of their existing cadres, let alone attract new youths to their organisations. The CPN-UML, the second-largest party in the Parliament, which completed its grassroots campaign only a few months ago, has been taken aback by the response it got from the grassroots.
