Prosperity stressed
LAMJUNG: CPN-UML standing committee member Shankar Pokhrel said people’s rights should be used for the prosperity of the country.
Speaking at his party’s function in Lamjung on Sunday, he said the rights that have been ensured after promulgation of the constitution should be utilised for socio-economic transformation of the country.
Reminding that Nepalis had to struggle for more than six decades to achieve their rights, he said people should use those rights for the prosperity of the land.
“Until the country is strong and self-reliant, people’s rights cannot be ensured,” he clarified, adding, “Relieving the country from the present crisis and heading towards the path of prosperity is the need of the hour.
The incumbent government has been preparing various long-term plans to push the country up in terms of economy and development,” he said Pokhrel was of the opinion that leaders needed to rectify their past mistakes.
