Kathmandu, April 2:

The sixth national convention of the Nepal Tamang Ghedung (NTG) will be held on April 7, 8 and 9 with the theme ‘Our campaign for the establishment of an autonomous federal Tamsaling’.

Mahendra Jung Tamang, the NTG president, said at a press meet today that the convention will focus on the representation of the Tamang people in the Constituent Assembly and on organising a general convention.

“The Tamang community has been left behind. There was no representation of the community in the interim government,” he said, adding, “There should be a proportionate representation of the Tamang people in every organ of the state.”

“Speaker Subas Nembang will inaugurate the convention. Around 500 representatives from 62 districts will attend it,” he added.
