 Ruling NC holding CWC meeting in Budhanilkantha today

To dwell on Gen Convention, active membership row



KATHMANDU: Ruling Nepali Congress (NC) is holding a Central Working Committee (CWC) meeting on Saturday.

In the CWC meeting scheduled for 2 pm at the Prime Minister’s residence in Budhanilkantha, the leaders will express their views on the investigation of active membership.

The NC leaders engaged in the heated discussions on the active memberships, the upcoming 14the General Convention and invited CWC members in the meeting on Friday.

Senior leader Ram Chandra Poudel came down heavily on President and Prime Minister Sher Bahadur Deuba after 22 invited CWC members tendered their resignation to him saying that they were humiliated. The environment had taken a nasty twist after Poduel warned that he would tender resignation along with the invited members.

“Let me speak, too, listen to me,” said Deuba. Then the leaders left the meeting.

Prior to this, central members Prakash Man Singh, Krishna Prasad Sitaula, Dr. Ramsharan Mahat, Bal Bahadur KC, Mahesh Acharya, Farmullah Mansur, Umakant Chaudhari, Arjun Prasad Joshi, Dr. Shekhar Koirala, Jeevan Bahadur Shahi, Kamala Pant, Ajay Kumar Chaurasia had expressed their views.

Also expressing their views included Dhanraj Gurung, Ratna Sherchan, Min Bahadur Bishwakarma, Badri Pandey, Shyam Kumar Ghimire, Ram Krishna Yadav, Bahadur Singh Tamang, Jangilal Rai, Ram Janam Chaudhari and Hemraj Tated.
