KATHMANDU, SEPTEMBER 25
General-Secretary of the CPN-UML Shankar Pokhrel has said people's mandate was necessary in order to form a government under a strong national party rather than a coalition government, for political stability in the country.
Addressing the inaugural session of first convention of the Bagmati Province Committee of the CPN-UML, he urged the cadres to engage in activities to make the party the top party in the coming days.
The UML general secretary further said, "The UML's attention is not now focused on forming the government. Its attention is for the country's development, prosperity and political stability by establishing the UML as a strong national force."
Arguing that social anarchy taking place in the society is oriented towards dismantling the unique culture, he clarified that main concern of the UML is to make the society's psychology disciplined and promote strong national unity through determination towards nation building.
UML Chairperson KP Sharma Oli inaugurated the convention by flying a drone carrying banner of the convention.
Present on the occasion were senior vice-chair Ishwor Pokharel, vice-chairs Ashtalaxmi Shakya, Surendra Pandey and Ram Bahadur Thapa and deputy general-secretaries - Pradeep Gyawali and Bishnu Rimal.
