Minister Sharma hints involving NC for resolving current crisis

DANG: Minister for General Administration Rekha Sharma said that the major opposition party, Nepali Congress (NC), would be roped in the process for the resolution of the current crisis in the country.

Speaking at a programme organised by Tulsipur Chamber of Commerce and Industry in Tulsipur, Dang on Thursday, Minister Sharma expressed her belief that the differences with the dissenting Madheshi leaders could be sorted out by considering amendment of the new constitution.

Sharma, who is also a member of the Talks Team formed to hold discussion with the disgruntled Madhesh-centric political parties, said that the issues like demarcation of federal states could only be resolved when all political parties forge a unity.

Furthermore, she held the opinion that the public in the country had to bear the brunt of the border blockade and its repercussions as Nepal is still dependent on others in every sector.

The programme was chaired by Bimal Rijal, President of Tulsipur Chamber of Commerce and Industry.
