Kathmandu, October 8

Four members of the Nepali Congress Central Working Committee on Sunday have objected to the decision made by the CWC meeting on the age limit for members of the party’s student wing, Nepal Students Union.

Those expressing their note of dissent during the meeting on late Sunday night include senior leader Ram Chandra Paudel and influential leader Krishna Prasad Sitaula, who had contested against Sher Bahadur Deuba for the party presidency. Prakash Man Singh and Arjun Narsingha KC have also objected to the decision.

However, the meeting set the upper limit at 32 years as the majority of members supported the proposal filed by party’s Joint General Secretary Prakash Sharan Mahat.

The dissident leaders have claimed the party did not follow due procedures while discussing the statute.
