KATHMANDU: Chairman of the Nepal Communist Party (NCP) Prachanda-Nepal faction Pushpa Kamal Dahal “Prachanda” has admitted that failure to integrate ex-combatants in the society by giving them responsibility in the organization has been a weakness.

Speaking at a program in the capital on Wednesday, Prachanda said that a special party committee of ex-combatants would be formed in the party to resolve the issue of the former fighters.

He, however, said that some ex-commanders have been established at the center referring to the election of Nanda Bahadur Pun, the commander of the then People’s Liberation Army, as the country’s Vice President and several other commanders in other positions.

Prachanda said that a special committee has been formed in the party to organize all combatants who had taken voluntary retirement.
