Kathmandu, Jan 7: Leaders of some fringe political parties have said the constitution amendment bill should be revoked, terming it against the State.
They were addressing the people’s gathering held in the Capital on Friday in a bid to create pressure on the government to withdraw the bill.
On the occasion, CPN (ML) General Secretary CP Mainali viewed that the bill should be revoked to honour the verdict of the Supreme Court.
“The court has not allowed Parliament to proceed with the bill. Present parliament cannot override the rights of provincial parliament. So the bill should be withdrawn,” he underscored.
He also warned of a stern action if the constitution amendment proposal was pushed for deliberation.
Likewise, saying the bill has been brought to divide republic country, Rastriya Janamorcha Chairman Chitra Bahadur KC said all Nepalis are in favour of integrated Nepal.
Nepal Workers Peasants Party central member Prem Suwal said the bill was brought at the direction of foreign power.
Nepal Pariwar Dal Chairman Eknath Dhakal said there was no alternative to withdrawing the bill as the court has issued the verdict against it.
A rally was organised before holding the gathering. Various leaders of the participating parties including UML Chairman KP Sharma Oli, senior leader Jhala Nath Khanal, leader Madhav Kumar Nepal, ML General Secretary Mainali and Janamorcha Chairman KC participated in the rally and addressed the gathering.
