Kathmandu, Oct 19: CPN-UML leader Bhim Rawal has expressed his party’s readiness to amend the constitution in favour of national interest.
At a face-to-face programme organized at the Reporters Club Nepal Tuesday, leader Rawal said, “UML does not stick to the assumption that the constitution shall not be subjected to change as it is a dynamic document. But the ruling parties and Madhesi parties who have been advocating for the constitutional amendment have not put forward the proposal seeking amendment to the national charter. They have not yet officially approached the UML to that end”.
Rawal further said that the UML would lend its support to the government to hold provincial and local level elections within a year but the elections should be held in a free and fair manner.
The erstwhile government had made public a timeline of holding elections of all three tiers, he said, blaming the incumbent government for its inability to come up with clear schedule for holding elections. RSS
