Kathmandu, August 22 Prime Minister Pushpa Kamal Dahal said right information at the right time is needed to disseminate factual information to the general public from both the government and the media sector. Speaking at a programme on the occasion of the 9th National Information Day organised by National Information Commission today in the capital, he emphasised the importance of information to strengthen democracy as well as to make the general people aware about their constitutional rights. He added that human beings are different from other creatures only due to accessibility of information and their industriousness. He said the public had supported every political change and revolution in Nepal after receiving information about their rights and the fact that they were being suppressed by the then rulers. This had encouraged them to start revolutions. “Information is needed to make the public aware about their rights, but right information is needed at the right time to give accurate information” he said. At the programme, Information and Communications minister Surendra Kumar Karki stressed the necessity of information dissemination up to the local level and also the use of modern technology.
