Prachanda says NCP will play decisive role in post-election government

KATHMANDU: Coordinator of the Nepali Communist Party (NCP) Pushpa Kamal Dahal has said the party will play a significant role in the government to be formed after the upcoming elections.

Speaking at the party’s central office in Parisdanda on Tuesday while welcoming leaders and cadres of Mukti Samaj Dolakha, affiliated with CPN-UML, into the party, Prachanda claimed that the NCP is poised to secure victory in most constituencies in the forthcoming polls.

“With only a few days left for the election, if all leaders and cadres work even harder, NCP will emerge as the number one party,” he said.

Prachanda stated that a new atmosphere of political polarization has been created following the formation of the NCP, expressing confidence that all leftist communist forces would once again unite.

He also remarked that there is significant dissatisfaction within the CPN-UML over the working style of its Chair KP Sharma Oli. According to him, leaders and cadres within UML would help raise the banner of unity once again.

Highlighting the need to strengthen the leftist movement in the country, Prachanda said all revolutionary communist forces must move forward in unity.
