CPN (Maoist Centre)’s Chair Pushpa Kamal Dahal ‘Prachanda’ has said he struggled for long to see political transformation in the country.
While inaugurating the ‘Youth Entrepreneurship Conference’ organized by the Ministry of Commerce and Supplies, Bagmati Province; the National Youth Council and Bishal Media Group jointly here today, the former Prime Minister said he planned to dedicate his days ahead for the cause of political stability, economic revolution, peace, development and prosperity of the nation.
The leader was of the view that youths who are abroad for various reasons would obviously not hesitate to come back to home provided that an atmosphere for stability, development and prosperity was ensured here. He realized that he was in the later part of life and he would dedicate his rest of the life for the economic revolution. The present situation suggests that we could accelerate the pace of development in the next 10 years. Youths are capable of taking the nation towards a new phase of economic development if they are committed for the same, according to him.
He was of the view that Nepal has a great potentiality of being developed as the economically self-sufficient nation, but political atmosphere, strong power, a right vision, plans and programmes are lacking to take the country towards that path with utilization of natural resources. Pointing out the great potentiality for the digital infrastructure development and urged youth not to miss such opportunity. Similarly, agriculture is one of the prominent sectors for achieving self-sufficiency.
