Kathmandu, Nov 23: Nepali Congress (NC) is set to hold discussion with the United Democratic Madhesi Front (UDMF) before tabling the constitution amendment proposal at the parliament.
A meeting of office-bearers and former office-bearers of the party held at Singha Durbar on Tuesday discussed the matter to give concrete shape to the constitution amendment proposal.
After the meeting, NC senior leader Ram Chandra Poudel shared that the meeting had discussed the ways to move ahead by holding consultations with UDMF and other stakeholders in regard to the constitution amendment.
Leader Poudel further informed that the meeting underscored the need of holding discussions with all political parties so as to materialize the agenda of constitution amendment.
The ruling parties including Nepali Congress and CPN (Maoist Centre) have intensified political dialogue and discussion after altercations with main opposition, CPN-UML, on the agenda of constitution amendment.
On the meeting, NC leader and Deputy Prime Minister Bimalendra Nidhi said the proposal of constitution amendment would be prepared tomorrow after discussion among Prime Minister Pushpa Kamal Dahal and leaders of UDMF and other ruling parties.
Nidhi further informed that the NC is holding discussion towards creating environment conducive to constitution amendment.
Likewise, NC leader Arjun Narsingh KC said that the matters related to boundary delineation, language, citizenship and national assembly were discussed in the meeting.
NC would reach to a conclusion after holding parleys with UML and UDMF in this regard, KC said, adding the party would move ahead on the demarcation of the boundary of five provinces by holding discussion with the people’s representatives of the concerned provinces.
“Those bearing naturalized citizenship would in no way be granted top state positions”, leader KC asserted. RSS
