MAHENDRANAGAR: Chief Whip of Nepali Congress, Ramesh Lekhak, has said NC must lead the initiative to amend constitution so that flaws in it would be wiped out and country freed of current instability.

During a meeting with party cadres at Ratanpur, Lekhak viewed we had such political situation that the Prime Minister was elected from the party having just 32 seats in federal parliament, while Chief Minister in Sudurpaschim Province was from the party with only four seats in Province Assembly.

“It is the cause of instability which must be corrected,” he said, adding, “We have weaknesses. We can move ahead by amending constitution.”

Lekhak urged the party cadres to move ahead with high morale. On a different note, the leader showed concern over slowed construction of postal highway in the southern belt of Kanchanpur district. It is contractor’s sheer recklessness, he argued.

He however said there was no budget crunch for the road construction projects for Daiji-Baildadi, Belauri-Doke bazaar and postal highway.

Lekhak vowed initiatives to complete these road projects.
