Rukum: Prime Minister and CPN Maoist (Centre) Chair, Pushpa Kamal Dahal, has stated that the three-month special transformation campaign launched by the party aims to foster unity among the Maoist factions.
During his address at a party event in Banfikot Rural Municipality-6 in Rukum West today, Dahal said, “We were once the largest party in the country, but regrettably, we later drifted apart, forgetting our commitments to the people. Some even chose to split from the party.”
The Prime Minister asserted that the current government will complete its full five-year term. “We have established a stable government, and the government formation issue in Koshi Province will not adversely affect the coalition.”
“We have also strengthened our diplomatic relationships with neighboring and other friendly nations. These ties will be further consolidated. My visits to India, China, and the United States have revealed that these nations are highly positive about Nepal’s prosperity and development,” he added.
Furthermore, he claimed significant progress has been made in the social sector since the current government took office. As the Prime Minister noted, the government has taken action against loan sharks, arrested individuals involved in gold smuggling, and dealt with the fake Bhutanese refugee scam. “We have received substantial support and cooperation from the political parties in the alliance in this regard.”
‘Incumbent coalition government to serve full five-year term’
Prime Minister Dahal also emphasized that the incumbent coalition government will complete its full five-year tenure. He said that despite political maneuverings aimed at breaking the coalition since its formation, no one can undermine the present government.
He mentioned, “Anarchists and those lacking a clear ideology may attempt to intervene, and federalists and autocrats may try to assert themselves when the coalition government appears weak.”
PM Dahal pointed out that there are efforts to disrupt religious and ethnic harmony in various parts of the country, underscoring the need for a coalition government to address such challenges.
Additionally, he expressed awareness of the overall development of Rukum West and informed the audience that important decisions about the district’s development would be made during the cabinet meeting upon his return to Kathmandu.
