Speaking at an interaction organized by the Reporters´ Club at NC leader Deuba´s residence in Budhanilkantha in the capital on Sunday, he said the supreme power of the country were the people and stressed the need of moving as per public mandate after the Constituent Assembly (CA) elections.[break]
NC leader Deuba said that he was in the line of reinstating the CA by forging consensus in the content of the constitution and expressed his dissatisfaction for not being so.
He said, "There is no dispute in the republican and federalism among the political parties, the majority of the political parties are committed to republicanism and federalism. The other issues should be decided by the people by taking fresh mandate."
There is no alternative to political consensus and the Unified CPN (Maoist) as the largest political party in the country, would take initiative to forge consensus, said Deuba.
"The political consensus for the national unity government should be formed within the time frame provided by the President," he said and made it clear that he was not in the race of Prime Minister and that is why he proposed NC President Sushil Koirala as the candidate for the post. "It is the united voice of NC," he added.
