He further argued that his party is also ready to forge an alliance with the Nepal Army and other forces to safeguard nationality.
“We can go together for the sake of nationality if Gyanendra proposes such to us," Chanda said.
He, however, said that no discussions have been held yet with the former monarch on the issue.
On the occasion, he was of the opinion that conspiracy is going on to ´sikkimize´ the country from ballot itself by granting citizenship certificates to foreign nationals.
Claiming that the proposed November 19 elections could not be held, leader Chand asserted that a roundtable discussion is the most suitable way to resolve the ongoing crisis.
