Kathmandu, Dec 12: Prime Minister Pushpa Kamal Dahal ‘Prachanda’ has pointed out the need for national unity among political parties for amendment and implementation of the constitution.
Initiating the regular transmission of Businessplus channel to coincide with the 7th anniversary of Mountain Television in the capital on Sunday evening, Prime Minister Dahal stressed that the constitution’s acceptability had to be widened by addressing the just demands of the dissenting forces through an amendment. “As we had agreed to make necessary amendments to the constitution prior to its promulgation, we need to now make the amendments to implement it and thereby guide the nation towards the path to prosperity,” the Prime Minister said.
Everything is changeable except for Nepal’s national freedom, people’s sovereignty and integrity, so it would be wrong to argue that the constitution cannot be amended at all. “As a head of government, I am ready to encompass all sides to unite the nation, but for that solution should be sought through dialogue and consensus, rather than resorting to agitation or chakka jam,” he said.
The PM commended the operation of the economic-centric television channel at the juncture of constitution implementation process.
Similarly, UML Vice Chair Bamdev Gautam said that there was no alternative to end the tussle among the political parties and head the country towards the path of economic prosperity.
Likewise, Nepali Congress General-Secretary Dr Shashank Koirala argued that economic prosperity could be attained without ensuring political stability.
Minister for Urban Development Arjun Narshing KC underscored consensus among political parties for amending the new constitution.
Federation of Nepalese Journalist (FNJ) President Dr Mahendra Bista urged the political parties to be focused on economic development.
On the occasion, five best employees of the Mountain Television were feted. RSS
