NC should be single largest party for writing constitution: Singh

BHAKTAPUR, Sept. 6: Nepali Congress (NC) General Secretary Prakashman Singh has said that democratic constitution would be promulgated only if the NC stands the major force in next Constituent Assembly (CA).



At a program organized by the NC Balkot and Dadhikot VDC here today, Singh expressed the view that the erstwhile CA failed to promulgate new constitution as the UCPN (Maoist) continued its totalitarian mentality for being the single largest party.



The constitution would not be promulgated again if the UCPN (Maoist) was victorious in the forthcoming CA election.



Claiming that the NC has the main responsibility to safeguard nationality, Singh pointed out that all NC well-wishers should be active for the same.



The NC General Secretary urged all cadres to come on ground for the CA election scheduled for November 19 and added that totalitarianism would get upper hand in the country if CA election was not held.



Similarly, NC leader Gagan Thapa recalled that the NC brought the UCPN (Maoist) into the mainstream of the peace process through the Comprehensive Peace Agreement.



Thapa said that NC should raise the issues of nationality and democracy simultaneously.Thapa said that the poll-opposing parties would be automatically boycotted from people and country´s mainstream agenda.
