Leftist unity imperative: Leaders

Kathmandu, Dec 26 : Speakers at a programme have underscored the need of leftist unity to institutionalize the achievements of Nepal’s communist movement. During a programme organized by the Mao Birthday Celebration Committee here Tuesday, CPN (Maoist Centre), leader Devendra Poudel said the left unity would help reach the socialism as provisioned by the constitution. The management of party with due allocation of posts is not a big deal, as the approval by the people’s mandate is pressing issue.
Another leader of the party, Bamdev Chhetri, said, “Political polarization with leftist unity is the need of hour. Service to the people in need of desperate help should be focused for economic prosperity of the country.” Youth leader of the Maoist Centre Mani Thapa said the left unity was essential to ensure the economic change to the people. A single party’s efforts were not up to the mark to keep on leftist unity, he added. A left intellect Ekraj Bhandari and legal practitioner Mukti Pradhan said there was no alternative but the leftist unity.
