System not bad, but political tendency: NC Vice President Gurung

Manahari: Vice President of the Nepali Congress Dhanraj Gurung has said Nepal’s system is not bad, but a political tendency.

Releasing a book ‘Prajatantrik Darpan, 2081’ amidst a programme organized by the Democratic Thoughts Society Makwanpur chapter in Hetauda city today, Gurung viewed that once the wrong political tendency is curbed, it would help dissipate public despair.

Nepali Congress is ready to cooperate with the initiative to bring to book the leaders involved in corruption, he vowed, reiterating, “NC is against corruption. We can begin an anti-corruption drive from ourselves.”

On the occasion, the district president of the party, Buddha Lama, said the Democratic Thoughts Society had an important role in consolidating democracy. Central Chairman of the Society, Kulchandra Wagle, the time has come to strengthen the institutional development of the Society by linking to democracy, the federal government and the people.

Former central chairman of the Society, Dr Kedar Narsingh KC, said the institution having intellectuals on board should play a vital role in rescuing democracy from casualty.

Democratic Fighter Awards was conferred on Ashok Shrestha, Yadav Raj Parajuli, Parameshwor Blon, Harinanda Kharel and the late Ishwor Chandra Agrawal.
