Kathmandu, November 14: Former Prime Minister and former Nepali Congress President Sher Bahadur Deuba has said that responsibility towards the country, the people and the party is more important than personal positions and prestige.
Addressing the inauguration of the 15th regular district convention of the Deuba faction of the Nepali Congress in Lalitpur at Mahalaxmisthan today, he said he no longer aspired to hold any position and would continue to contribute to the party and the country.
Stating that the Nepali Congress was established through the sacrifices and struggles of the people, he said no one could take control of the party to serve their personal interests. He stressed the need to move forward unitedly while respecting the party’s history and legacy.
He also said that disputes within the party and issues related to the special general convention should be resolved in accordance with the party’s rules, regulations and due judicial process.
At the programme, Nepali Congress leader Madan Bahadur Amatya, National Assembly member Jeet Jung Basnet, former Bagmati Province Minister Urmila KC Nepal, and outgoing regional president Maheshwar Thapa stressed the importance of internal unity, holding the regular general convention, and selecting capable leadership.
