Paudel says Deuba couldn’t play role of opposition leader

L-R: Ram Chandra Paudel and Sher Bahadur Deuba

Chitwan, November 13

Nepali Congress senior leader Ram Chandra Paudel has criticised  his party president Sher Bahadur Deuba, claiming the former prime minister failed to play the role of an efficient main opposition leader in the federal Parliament.

Speaking with journalists in Chitwan today, Paudel said, “The president should have presented himself with aggressive thoughts, but he could not.”

On the occasion, Paudel also claimed that he was more concerned about the party rather than his position. “I am worried why we lost the elections and how we can revive the party,” he said, “I don’t care who will hold what position.”

In another context, he said the lunch meeting held at the residence of leader Sujata Koirala in Kathmandu on Monday was just an informal gathering and it was not aimed at promoting factionalism in the party.

He maintained that he did not have any objection to Bijaya Kumar Gachhadar’s appointment as the party vice-president except that the process did not follow the party statute.
