Lalitpur, October 20
Prime Minister and Nepali Congress President Sher Bahadur Deuba has urged all political parties to participate in the elections of federal House of Representatives and State Assemblies.
Inaugurating a cultural rally organised by Nepal Sambat 1138 Organising Committee here today, Prime Minister Deuba said that the constitution would be fully implementation after both the elections.
