Opening the first convention of Nepal Democratic Engineers´ Association on Saturday, leader Deuba said how those leaders who are not able to settle the intra-party conflict could run the state.



"Fresh election is not possible without necessary amendments to the constitution," he said and opined that the dissolved Constituent Assembly should be revived for sometimes to remove constitutional difficulties for holding the election and new date for election be announced on the basis of political consensus.



The former prime minister further urged both the ruling and the opposition parties to give up their stances to give the nation a way out to the present crisis as quickly as possible.



Stating that the development of the country would not be possible until and unless political stability was achieved, he stressed the need of ensuring security at first and thereby attracting foreign investment into the country.

Former president of Nepal Engineers Association Yubaraj Sharma stressed the need of unity among all the democratic forces in the country for defeating the UCPN (Maoist) that has formed an alliance by blaming the Nepali Congress as anti-federalist party.
