Inaugurating the substation of the hydroelectricity established in Lakuri, Rolpa, Minister Pun said that if both chairmen agreed to handover the leadership to the younger generation, the younger generation is capable of handling the party ahead.

“If both the chairmen agree to hand over the party leadership to us, we are ready to lead the party ahead in line with the party statute and system,” Minister Pun said in the program.
