Parsa, April 3: Nepali Congress (NC) leader Dr Shekhar Koirala has expressed his confidence that the upcoming local election would be held within the stipulated time of May 14 this year.
Addressing the condolence gathering of the Press Union, Parsa Chapter’s former President Kashinath Yadav in Parsa on Sunday, leader Koirala underscored the need of bringing on board the Madhesi Front to make the election successful. He was of the opinion that if the Front is negated in the upcoming election, the extremist forces would prevail thereby leading the country to the political impasse.
Stating that the extreme nationalism of the CPN-UML was fuelling the fire in the Madhes’s uprising, he commented that some of the leaders’ tendency to gauge the nationality of the Madheshi public was being fatal.
He asserted that his reservation towards making Hindi language as the national language, and argued that there should be population-based representation in the national assembly.
Recalling that late Yadav was a freedom fighter, leader Koirala stated that the Yadav’s death (on March 29) brought shock to those subscribing to the democratic ideologies. RSS
