Culture of ‘factionalism’ damages party: Shekhar Koirala



CHITWAN: Nepali Congress leader Dr Shekhar Koirala has said the culture of factionalism will affect smooth functioning of the party.

Even though it is natural within a democratic party, it can harm the party functioning. Koirala, however, said the party will go astray if mafia culture dominates the party.

Speaking at a program in Chitwan on Sunday, Koirala said the culture of factionalism is not unusual since it helps make the party strong.

On the occasion, he reiterated that republic and federalism have been the party’s agenda, and that the party was committed to the agendas. He also alleged the government of interfering in all sectors, including education and health.
