Minister Mahara, who is currently in South Korea, said this during a meeting with representatives from various Korean organizations.
He also blamed the ´foreign meddling in Nepal´s internal affairs on Nepali leaders who he said are preoccupied with their own personal benefits, ignoring larger national interests.
Mahara stressed that that our main agenda should be strengthening national independence and warding off foreign intervention.
Earlier, while speaking at a function organized by his party´s sister organizations, Mahara had reaffirmed that his party is serious about the ongoing peace and constitution writing processes.
