RAUTAHAT, JANUARY 29

CPN-UML Standing Committee member Prabhu Sah today stressed the need to take to the streets as the five-party alliance was conspiring to delay local level polls in the country.

Addressing CPN-UML's Dewahi Gonahi Municipal assembly gathering in Rautahat, Sah said that the opposition party had no choice but to hit the streets to salvage the country from the five-party alliance's syndicate. He accused the five-party alliance's leaders of plundering state coffers and looting the national treasury in an institutionalised way.

'The government formed from the verdict of the Supreme Court is escalating corruption and loot in the country,' Sah reiterated.

He expressed concern about the rising inflation and hardship faced by the farmers and backward people.

Sah charged that the government had breached the law and was conspiring to postpone the local level polls. He argued that agitation was the only one right alternative to bring politics back on track. He directed the party rank and file to prepare for the protest against the five-party alliance and its conspiracy.
