Irresponsible statements from party people not welcoming practice: NC leader Arzu Rana



KATHMANDU: Nepali Congress (NC) central member and Minister for Foreign Affairs, Dr Arzu Rana Deuba, has said irresponsible comments regarding the party made by the party people is not a welcoming practice.

The trend of giving reckless statements and the accusations and counter accusations has increased lately in the political sphere, this has been more prevalent in the Nepali Congress (NC), she complained.

During her address to a  party cadres’ meeting and interaction organised by the NC Ilam at Shree Antu today, the leader said such statements may get a media coverage but ultimately will do damage for the party.

As she said, such tendency would lead to frustrations among party cadres from central to the local levels.

She underlined the need of further integrating and strengthening the party to prove it the ‘largest party’ in the upcoming general election.

Dr Rana advised the party people to discuss if any unconvincing issues within the party, instead of arguing over the matter in public.

Stating that the NC had become the largest party in the latest local and parliamentary elections due to tremendous efforts of party President Sher Bahadur Deuba, she said the party will be competing without any electoral alliance in the upcoming elections and more efforts are needed for it to secure the voters’ trust.

Highlighting the contribution of women in the Minister called for increasing proportional participation of women in the party.

“It is challenging for women to seek and find a space in each political parties,” she said, also urging women to explore the political engagements and leadership in a more active way.

The Minister also pledged for the support for a greater development of Ilam.
