Leftist alliance won’t affect Nepali Congress: Leader Koirala

 

NAWALPARASI: Nepali Congress General Secretary Shashanka Koirala has said the recent alliance among leftist parties won’t affect Nepal Congress in upcoming polls.

Koirala further said it was natural phenomenon among the lefties parties to forge electoral alliance, as they share same ideology, for upcoming provincial and parliamentary elections.

NC leader Koirala said it was high time that the party strengthen its internal structure and ideological unity to forge electoral alliance with the democratic forces for upcoming polls.

Koirala speaking at a press meet at Kawasawati on Wednesday said the cabinet meeting would change Triveni Susta East Nawalparasi to Nawalpur District and declare Kawasawati as its district headquarters.

Leader Koirala clarified that he would contest upcoming elections from Nawalpur district.

He further said that the upcoming elections are essential for successful implementation of federalism in the nation.

Koirala also directed the party cadres to work for the polls with a clear plan to make a prosperous Nepal as per the people’s aspirations.

The provincial and parliamentary elections are scheduled on November 26 and December 7 respectively.

As per the constitutional requirement, all levels of elections should be held by January 21 for the implementation of the constitution and federalism in the country.
