Congress Deputy President Sharma Emphasizes Constitution Amendment for Youth Future

Kathmandu. Nepali Congress Deputy President Bishwaprakash Sharma has emphasized the need to seriously advance the process of constitution amendment to ensure the country's prosperity and the future of the new generation. Speaking at a program organized at the party's central office, BP Smriti Bhawan, Sharma said that the constitution should be given momentum in line with the changing times and the aspirations of the youth generation.

Deputy President Sharma warned that if the questions and expectations arising in the current times are not addressed properly, the country will face a serious crisis in the coming decade. He argued that the issue of constitution amendment should be taken above party interests and advanced on the basis of national consensus. He stressed that the constitution should be amended by keeping the sentiments of citizens and the youth generation at the center, free from impulse and prejudice.

Sharma also informed that the Nepali Congress has mobilized an expert team led by Deputy President Pushpa Bhusal to conduct homework on constitution amendment and contemporary political issues. He said that constructive suggestions are expected from all intellectual personalities, critics, and general citizens, both within and outside the party, in this process.

Speaking at the program, he said, 'If we cannot turn the hopes of today's youth into trust, the situation after 10 years could be dire. We should not allow a situation where the current 'Alpha Generation' grows up and stands on the streets again with new disagreements and rebellions. We do not want to see a scene again where mothers' laps are empty and Singha Durbar is burning.'

Mentioning that the main aspiration of today's youth generation is 'Democracy and Development' (D&D), Deputy President Sharma clarified that Congress is committed to achieving both these goals within a democratic framework. Stating that the country is everyone's common courtyard, he pointed out the need for both the government and the opposition to move forward responsibly.
