Lalitpur, May 25: Prime Minister and CPN (UML) Chair, KP Sharma Oli, has said that the elected ward chairpersons at the local level should strengthen their close relationships with the public and the party to work towards development and good governance.
Inaugurating the Bagmati province-level training programme for the Ward Chairpersons elected from the CPN (UML) here today, the party Chair Oli urged elected local body heads and deputy heads to work in coordination along with other political parties to win the trust of the general public by providing quick and easy services as well as maintaining development and good governance.
“You have been elected from the party to a position of responsibility. After winning the election, one should not cut off contact with the party as if cutting the thread of a kite. It is not acceptable to say, I won, I have no further concern. Another election will also come. Therefore, you should now actively serve the country and the people by following the party’s policies and directives,” said PM Oli.
Stating that the UML is a party that is formed for establishing a true people’s democracy and it is a party that steadfastly works in favour of the country’s independence and territorial indivisibility, he described the CPN (UML) as the country’s ‘protagonist party’.
“Some so-called leftists conspired against the UML, saying that they will make the UML bite the dust to the point it would be impossible to find them even by shining torchlight, but we have shattered those conspiracies and moved forward,” he asserted on the occasion.
Prime Minister Oli commented that after they united the party to form the Nepal Communist Party (NCP), which had nearly two-thirds majority (in parliament), they (the so-called communists) had tried to stop the campaign of the UML to develop the country by committing the crime of division in the party. He stated that the attack on UML by both domestic and foreign forces to prevent the country’s development is an attack against the nation itself.
Although there is no basis for the monarchy’s return, Prime Minister Oli urged the party leaders and cadres not to let the morale of the UML fall while the reactionary elements are trying to raise their heads, emphasizing the need to dispel the illusion spread by those who shamelessly wish for the people to become ‘serfs’.
PM Oli stated that currently, the corrupt and the cooperatives fraudsters are spreading confusion among the public by raising voices such as ‘Oppose corruption and give justice to cooperatives victims’.
A total of 359 ward chairpersons elected from the CPN (UML) from Bagmati Province are participating in this two-day training programme. (RSS)
