Deuba says he will face the party’s special convention



BIRATNAGAR: Nepali Congress President Sher Bahadur Deuba on Thursday said he would face the party’s special convention if the party’s district presidents were to call one.

Talking to reporters at Biratnagar Airport, Deuba said he would confront the special convention called by what he said ‘a small number of 20 to 25 district presidents’ of the party.

Deuba said had there been late Girija Prasad Koirala, he would have expelled the district presidents if they had convened such a meeting that is aimed at tarnishing the party’s image. “I, however, will not take any action against them,” Deuba said.

He said that the party’s disciplinary committee would look into the issue.
