This PM is a joker
During the 12 years of multi-party democracy this guy had the opportunity to lead the country by rising above the family and party oriented politics and elevate himself to national interest. He is one of the main reasons for the poor state of Nepal. He has finally stood against the monarchy, not because of his conviction, but because he now sees that Nepali people are not going to take it any more. He definitely saw the poll result how there is not much support for monarchy. He is merely blowing with the wind. We do not need this kind of leader who continues to dupe people.
NC won't shoulder king, says PM Koirala
Kantipur Report
KATHMANDU, Dec 3 - Prime Minister and President of the Nepali Congress (NC) Girija Prasad Koirala said Sunday that the NC would not shoulder the king to protect the existence of the monarchy in the country.
PM Koirala made the remarks during a meeting with the members of his party's sister organizations at his residence at Baluwatar this morning.
"In a meeting today, PM Koirala asked all our party organizations to deliver a message to the people that the Nepali Congress doesn’t need to shoulder the king," said Binod Kayastha, president of the NC's youth wing -- Nepal Tarun Dal (NTD).
Kayastha added that his party workers would convey Koirala's message to all the districts during their "District Campaign" programme to be organized in the near future.
The prime minister also directed NTD to prepare for the imminent constitutional assembly elections.
Koirala directed all party cadres to initiate campaigns on the issues of interim legislature, interim government, peace and constitutional assembly in all 75 districts.
The PM during the meeting with his party workers opined that with the official end of the 11-year-long insurgency, the young generation needs to be involved in launching such campaigns across the country.
Koirala's statement came when his party has been facing allegations from other members of the ruling alliance that the NC attempted to give a ceremonial role to the king at a time when republican sentiment is rising among the Nepali people.
Earlier on Saturday, CPN-UML General Secretary Madhav Kumar Nepal, hinting at the NC, said that the need of unity among republican forces was becoming more relevant as some forces had started becoming active to protect the king either in a constitutional or a ceremonial form.
In a landmark agreement reached on November 8, the seven-party alliance and the Maoists agreed to decide the future of monarchy through the first sitting of the constituent assembly.
