Deuba-led faction to hold 15th general convention from December 7



KATHMANDU: The faction led by Sher Bahadur Deuba of the Nepali Congress is to hold its 15th general convention from December 7-9.

Organising a press conference here on Monday, the faction shared that it would organise its 15th  general convention from coming December citing the establishment faction did not pay any interest for party unity and neglected dialogue.

Coordinator of general convention preparation committee of the faction, Dr Shashank Koirala, shared that the ward-level convention would start from October 1 as per the schedule published by the leadership elected from the 14th general convention. “Moving ahead unilaterally without waiting the decision of the Supreme Court cannot be considered appropriate at any cost,” he said.

It was the need of hour for seeking solution respecting both legal and political aspects, while focusing on the party’s future, said Coordinator Dr Koirala.

Meanwhile, the establishment had decided on Sunday to publish a schedule to organise ward convention from coming September 19 and the 15th general convention from October 2-5.
