Acharya is scheduled to organize a function in Kathmandu next week.
Acharya is planning to float the nine-point agenda amid complaints from various quarters that NRNA leadership is often devoid of any agenda to take up.
He is preparing to publicize his policy and plan to help contribute to Nepal's economic development and prosperity.
Acharya has announced to make his efforts to provide citizenship card to non-resident Nepalis as provisioned in the constitution.
He argued that the issue of citizenship certificate should be finalized in the spirit of “once a Nepali, always a Nepali”.
Earlier, a German-based entrepreneur Kumar Pant announced his candidacy for the post of NRNA Global Chair.
