The Nepali Congress has stated that the dissolution of Parliament is contrary to the vision of the Constitution and the interpretation of the Supreme Court.
The meeting of the Central Working Committee of the party held on Friday night regarding the latest developments in the country decided that the dissolution of Parliament is not in accordance with the Constitution, while concluding that the move has undermined democratic achievements.
Coordinated by Vice President Purna Bahadur Khadka the meeting was attended by the provincial chairs, chief ministers and leaders of the provincial parliamentary parties of all seven provinces as well as invitees.
The Congress has urged that the unpleasant and unprecedented incidents that took place on September 8 and 9 should be investigated and that the constitution drafted by the Constituent Assembly and its achievements should be safeguarded.
To prevent the situation from deteriorating further and to prevent the constitution of the Federal Democratic Republic of Nepal from going outside of the parth, the Nepali Congress has decided to play a leading role for the sake of peace, democracy, progress and prosperity in consultation with other political parties and civil society, reads the statement issued by Chief Secretary Krishna Prasad Poudel.
