Nepali Congress Establishment Responds to Deuba Group's 5 Conditions
Kathmandu. The Nepali Congress's establishment has not responded to the 5 conditions set by the former president Sher Bahadur Deuba group to maintain unity in the party. On Monday, Deputy Chairman Bishwaprakash Sharma held a press conference at the party's central office. Sharma, who spoke about the party's internal politics at the beginning of the press conference, did not comment on the Deuba group's conditions.
Deputy Chairman Sharma said that discussions are continuously being held to create an environment that ensures the easy participation of Chairman Gagan Thapa, the party leadership, and other members. 'I want to clarify what is happening regarding the internal affairs of the Nepali Congress party. Discussions and dialogues are being held with the objective of creating an environment for everyone to participate in the 15th General Convention of the Nepali Congress, with the respected Chairman Gagan Kumar Thapa, the entire Nepali Congress party, and the party leadership,' Sharma said. 'We are confident that these dialogues and discussions will conclude positively. In the context of internal affairs, I want to clarify this at the beginning, keeping in mind the questions you might have today.' However, he did not say anything about the Deuba group's conditions.
The Deuba group had only yesterday, on Sunday, held a press conference and put forward a 5-point proposal to maintain unity in the party. On behalf of the Deuba group, former head of the publicity department Min Bishwakarma proposed to complete the central working committee led by Gagan Thapa by merging the office bearers and members of the 14th General Convention's working committee with the working committee of the special general convention, to form a working executive committee ensuring Gagan Thapa's majority, and to announce the schedule for the 15th General Convention through a meeting of the reconstituted central working committee.
Similarly, the Deuba group's demands include forming various committees related to the general convention ensuring the majority of the current establishment faction, and since the party's active membership is the most important basis for the general convention, to automatically allow all active members determined by the committee coordinated by the current Chairman Gagan Kumar Thapa (then General Secretary) before any disputes arose within the party to participate in the 15th General Convention and to proceed with their digital entry.
At the press conference, Deputy Chairman Sharma evaded questions by saying that efforts are being made for consensus and that an environment will be created for the general convention to be held with consensus.
