PALPA, March 14: Minister for Foreign Affairs and leader of ruling Nepal Communist Party (NCP) Pradeep Kumar Gyawali has said that this is not the appropriate time for holding debates on constitution amendment.



Minister Gyawali said that this is the time for constitution implementation, but not its amendment. At a program organised by Tansen Municipal Committee of NCP here on Saturday, Gyawali argued that the first priority of the time is to build prosperous Nepal and added that debates on constitution amendment are irrelevant.
