KATHMANDU: Chairman of the CPN-UML, KP Sharma Oli, has directed party leaders and cadres not to involve in activities disrupting ethnic and regional harmony in the name of dissatisfaction over draft of new constitution.

Addressing a gathering of party's different fronts and organisations at the party headquarters, Dhumbarahi, here today, Chairman Oli called on all to be aware against those trying to foil the environment conducive for the promulgation of new constitution for fulfilling their regional and ethnic interest.

Urging the party cadres and leaders to involve in peace and goodwill rallies, he said, "The CPN-UML and its organisations should be involved to create environment conducive for promulgation of new constitution to institutionalise federal republicanism gained from sacrifice and struggle of the people."

Chair Oli said that the country could not be built by moving together with those refusing the new constitution with federalism.

He also urged all the parties, including the agitating ones, to recognise the truth that federalism was accepted for the administrative convenience of people.

Similarly, party leader Madhav Kumar Nepal said that the party has been playing a role to take the constitution writing task to conclusion soon. He further said that interest of the group wanting to foil the new constitution would not be fulfilled.

Leader Nepal stressed that all should pay their attention in new building of the country by institutionalising achievements gained from people's movement.
