Rolpa, March 15: A party with new ideology should lead the country after the constituent assembly (CA) election for restoring enduring peace and stability, CPN (Maoist) chairman Prachanda said addressing a mass meeting organised in Liwang of Rolpa Saturday.
He said that the CA election was being held to give new direction to the country but the parliamentary parties had been trying to save monarchy by having a provision of ceremonial head of the state in their manifestos following the suggestion of India and Britain.
The parties had become victorious in the past elections by misusing power and buying the votes, he claimed.
He blamed that the parliamentary parties in the government had been trying to lead astray the mass through deception and rigging. He also urged the people to vote for the true nationalists and republicans.
Commending the role of the people in Rolpa during the decade long conflict, he said that he had special fondness of the people in the region. “Since the people in Rolpa had made great sacrifice during the People’s War, they have a great role to make the economic revolution a success,� he said.
He said that the Maoists were committed to taking the peace process to a logical end and the people had a great role to make the CA successful.
He claimed that CPN (Maoist) alone had a plan to make use of the vast resources in the country to make it prosperous and urged the people to make the party victorious to build a corruption free Nepal.
Minister for Information and Communications and senior Maoist leader Krishna Bahadur Mahara said that the relationship with the feudalism, imperialism and expansionist forces should be severed to transform Nepal into a federal republic.
Jaya Puri Gharti, lawmaker and candidate of Rolpa Constituency- 1, said that her party should secure at least two third of the seats for women liberation.
Maoist leaders Pasang, Santosh Budha, Hemanta Prakash Oli were also present at the programme.
