Jhapa, December 11 Former Prime Minister and CPN-UML Chairperson KP Sharma Oli stressed today that there was no alternative to consensus among all the political forces for the country’s development. Speaking at a victory rally in Bhadrapur, Jhapa, today, Oli said they needed to be humble about their victory and behave in a dignified manner with leaders of other forces. “People have endorsed our agendas. We have to proceed sincerely to meet their expectations and aspiration for development taking the opposition parties on board,” said Oli. He said the days of criticising and blaming other forces were over. “Now the country will witness stability. We won’t talk about politics, rather we’ll talk about development and prosperity,” claimed Oli. He said garnering majority alone would not ensure stability in the country. He said development and prosperity were possible only when the leaders showed their willingness to ensure the same.
