KATHMANDU: CPN-Unified Socialist chairman Madhav Kumar Nepal stated that he is not mentally prepared to file candidacy for the post of President as his party has not received any concrete proposal on the issue yet.
Talking to media persons here Tuesday, Nepal said that no concrete proposal was made before him for becoming the President.
“Rumors abound in political circle. However, no final decision has been taken on it. Although having intention is one thing, I’ve not thought of anything about becoming the President,” he observed.
His party had not decided about President’s candidacy, Chair Nepal said, adding that the party however had a stake in power sharing. “It is unwise to sacrifice always for others,” he maintained.
According to leader Nepal, a comprehensive discussion is imperative.
Although the media report came that UML Chair KP Oli proposed Nepal for President, the Unified Socialist chair refused to comment on it and dismiss the news saying everything that comes in the media may not be true.
Yet, he remarked, all sides should be serious for the protection of national interest.
