Congress holds mass rallies to proclaim it’s back in business. But is it?

Analysts say it’s already too late for the party to raise issues from Parliament and work as an effective opposition party that can hold the government to account.

The last few days have been busy for Bishwo Prakash Sharma, the spokesperson for the primary opposition Nepali Congress. From disseminating information on the demonstrations planned for Monday through various mediums, including social media like Twitte r, to correcting the Nepal map on his social media video in which he was making a case for the rallies and calling on his party members to join, Sharma was doing all he could to make the Congress protests successful.
