Kathmandu. KATHMANDU: Nepali Congress (NC) former President Sher Bahadur Deuba has said that it was the historic responsibility of the Nepali Congress to protect democratic norms, freedom of expression and political rights. <\/p>\n
In a press release on the occasion of BP Koirala’s memorial day, he said the path forwarded by BP for nationality, democracy, socialism, reconciliation and people’s supremacy is the main guiding principle in Nepal’s political journey even today. <\/p>\n
“His firm belief in nationality, democracy and socialism along with reconciliation and people’s supremacy remain the guiding light of our political journey even today,” PM Oli said. \u2019<\/p>\n
Stating that it was the greatest privilege of his life to begin his political career under the leadership of BP Koirala, he said that democratic culture, responsibility and belief had given direction to his entire political career. “In his political journey spanning over six decades, he has never wavered in his stand for democracy, constitutionalism and people’s rights despite being jailed, banned, oppressed and in difficult circumstances,” he said. <\/p>\n
“In my journey from an ordinary cadre of the Nepali Congress to the party leadership for more than six decades, I got the opportunity to fight against all kinds of autocracy, totalitarianism and anti-democracy forces,” he said. Despite imprisonment, bans, political repression and many other difficult circumstances, my stand for democracy, constitutionalism and people’s rights has never changed. Because I have always believed that there is no alternative greater than democracy, and there is no power greater than the rights of the people. \u2019<\/p>\n
Paying respect to the memory of BP, he has extended best wishes to all Nepalis. “The path shown by BP in favour of democratic values, national unity and people’s supremacy are still relevant and inspiring,” he said. <\/p>\n
Deuba said that although he is abroad with his family in course of the treatment, his attention is continuously focused on the country, people and democracy. Paying respect to the memory of BP, he extended best wishes to all Nepalis.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
