Nepalis should unite for truth and justice: Former PM Dr Bhattarai



BIRATNAGAR: Chairman of Federal Council of Janata Samajwadi Party Nepal Dr Baburam Bhattarai said that Nepalis should unite for the cause of truth and justice.

Speaking at a mass demonstration and protest rally organized by his party in Biratnagar on Saturday, he said, “It is our responsibility to safeguard the achievements gotten from people’s revolt and people’s moment.”

Saying that people’s struggle was needed to safeguard the constitution’s supremacy, Dr Bhattarai called for ensuring rights of landless and farmers, and putting to an end to violence against women.

Accusing the government of being failure to curb corruption, Dr Bhattarai expressed his displeasure for dissolution of House of Representatives (HoR) despite having a comfortable majority to the ruling party.

Likewise, party’s Federal Chairman Upendra Yadav stated that political issue should be resolved through political level.

He also called upon the public to get ready for revolt and struggle and argued that the expansion of the council of ministers by the ‘caretaker government’ was not appropriate.

Yadav was of the view that the government weakened the political parties and seized the constitutional bodies but could not bring about reforms in education and health sectors.

He also asked one and all to unite to defend republicanism, federalism and democracy achieved from the people’s sacrifices.
