According to THT ‘Oppn will start stir against government’ Nepali Congress General Secretary Prakashman Singh today said opposition parties in the country would join hands and hit the street against the Baburam Bhattarai-led government. Addressing his party’s meeting at Nawalparasi’s Gaidakot, NC leader said, “Parties in the opposition will forge working unity and launch street agitation against the incumbent government.” The NC general secretary accused the Unified CPN-Maoist of dissolving the Constituent Assembly on May 27 with the intention of prolonging its stay in power. He also held that the resurrection of the dissolved CA as not relevant in the present political context. Opposition parties would dislodge the government through agitation, Singh added. On a different note, Singh went on to say that proposal presented by UCPN-Maoist Chairman Pushpa Kamal Dahal in writing yesterday to the NC and CPN-UML was a mere farce to hoodwink them once again.

Therefore, Dashain and Tihar will be the last deadline to Dahal. He accused that the Unified CPN-M of taking advantage of political and constitutional crisis facing the country. “The crises will never end until and unless the UCPN-M changes its fundamental mindset,” he said. The nation has started facing the crises since May 27, he added. Coming down heavily on Prime Minister Baburam Bhattarai, Pokharel described him as the ‘subversive PM’ in the history of Nepal as he has already raised the issues of nationality and submitted 40 points demands. Pokharel said that the country is mired with corruption as the UCPN-M does every- PAGE 5 thing for the money and weapons. “The UCPN-M’s statement to reinstate the Constituent Assembly can be regarded as a kind of game to cheat people of this nation,” he added. He further said that there is no any alternative way rather than going to the new election to seek fresh mandate from the people.
