Sujata lambasts UML chief
Himalayan News Service
Itahari, November 13:
Central member of the Nepali Congress, Sujata Koirala, today accused CPN (UML) general secretary Madhav Kumar Nepal of working overtime to hinder the implementation of the agreement between the seven-party alliance and the Maoists.
Speaking to journalists here, Sujata said that Nepal was creating problems by raising the issue of who should lead the interim government. Alleging that the UML leaders were slandering Prime Minister Girija Prasad Koirala, she said, “The government has done a lot of work; the charges against the government will boost regression.â€
Both the Congresses would unite soon, she said. “The issue of party unification has reached the final point; it’s near announcement now,†she added.
“The NC favours ceremonial kingship; not only the PM but the entire Nepali Congress wants this. The election to a constituent assembly is the best means to settle the dispute over this issue,†Sujata said.
