KATHMANDU: Sher Bahadur Deuba, President of the Nepali Congress (NC) and former Prime Minister, has voiced his approval of the government’s achievements during its first 100 days.

Deuba emphasized that there are no reasons for dissatisfaction with the work done by the government under the leadership of CPN-UML Chairman KP Sharma Oli.

In a conversation with News Agency Nepal, he remarked that the government has made effective use of its initial “honeymoon period.”

He addressed misunderstandings regarding the government’s disaster management efforts, highlighting the deployment of security personnel for relief and rescue missions.

“I believe it’s a positive outcome—there are several reasons to view these 100 days as successful. We consider this a honeymoon phase. The government is performing well and gaining momentum,” he stated.

Deuba also praised the response to recent floods and landslides, noting, “We dispatched teams for rescue operations, including airlifts by helicopter.”

Moreover, he expressed confidence that the current government will complete its full term, with Prime Minister Oli anticipated to govern for two years following the formation of the UML-Nepali Congress coalition.

“There’s no issue here; everyone is doing well. PM Oli will lead for two years, and I will take over for the remaining one and a half years,” Deuba concluded.
