Addressing a function organized by Nepal Press Union, Morang, in Biratnagar, Singh said NC cadres to leaders in the center are not satisfied with the government as CPN-UML is unilaterally making key decisions including political appointments. [break]
Singh, however, said the NC is not in favor of changing the guards at Singha Durbar at the moment despite dissatisfactions with the UML-led government.
“Youth parliamentarians have raised the demand for a Nepali Congress-led government during parliamentary party meeting,” said Singh, who is deputy parliamentary leader of the NC. “However, changing the government now is not the priority of the Nepali Congress.”
Singh complained that the government utterly failed to live up to the expectations of the people. “There is upper hand of UML in all appointments and nominations,” he said, adding: “Youth parliamentarians have been piling up pressure to change the government saying that ministers representing the party have failed to perform satisfactorily.”
He, however, said that the NC is in favor of giving continuity to the current government as the party is focused on taking the ongoing peace process to a logical end, draft new constitution within the stipulated date and accomplish the management of the Maoist combatants.
Singh also said the NC is currently busy in settling differences seen in various district committees to help conduct the party´s upcoming general convention smoothly. He said the differences seen in 26 district committees have been brought down to nine district committees now.
He claimed that the party´s Central Working Committee (CWC) meeting to be held on Tuesday will resolve all the differences surfaced in the remaining districts.
