Nepali Congress General Secretary Gagan Thapa has said his party had not taken any decision whether it would forge electoral alliance with other political parties in the coming local level elections. He however said it would be discussed now onwards.
At a press meet organized by Press Union, Surkhet chapter here Sunday, General Secretary Thapa viewed, “NC is currently working in alliance. It is present need too. Views have surfaced on cementing the present alliance in view of the coming elections.”
He reminded that NC and UML made a coalition government in 2056BS considering then situation. Even the talks on electoral alliance dominated the scene, but both parties fought the election alone- fighting each other. The issue of whether to face election with alliance or singly has surfaced just now, Thapa added.
According to him, views on both options- forging alliance and facing election singly- are in the party. Final decision would be made by the end of March. Decision to this would be taken by the central committee meeting based on the views of lower level committees and leaders.
