Disagreement has increased within the Congress on whether to immediately address the demands for change raised by the Gen-G movement or to run the party as it is. A group including two general ministers of the Congress, Gagan Thapa and Vishwaprakash Sharma, has come together in favor of a special convention with the conclusion that the party's policy and leadership should be changed immediately. The establishment party has opposed it.

In the Congress, there is a provision that the Central Working Committee can call a special convention in extreme circumstances. On the other hand, there is also a provision in the statute that if a petition is submitted with the signatures of 40 percent of the representatives of the central convention, the chairman must call a special convention within three months.

After the establishment aspect was not positive for both of them, the leaders of General Minister Thapa and Sharma Khema are preparing for the signature campaign of the representatives . According to Gururaj Ghimire, the leader of the other parties in the establishment, the signature campaign of the representatives is going to be formally started on Monday to convene a special convention immediately.

Now is not the time for rioting, special convention will make the party vulnerable: Krishna Prasad Sitaula [interview]

It has become so turbulent, can we sustain the party as it is, it is not possible, we have always raised the right things, but we have left in the middle, we will not leave this time. The establishment party is dissatisfied with the role. Five ex-officers who stayed at Chaksbari residence of leader Prakashman Singh on Monday concluded that special or regular congress is not possible within November. Former office bearers of Congress, Vimalendra Nidhi, Krishna Prasad Sitaula, Shashank Koirala, Prakashman Singh and Prakasharan Mahat were present in the meeting. 'There cannot be a regular convention next November. There are still a lot of procedures left for the regular convention,'' said Ghimire, 'in the current situation, there is no solution to the problem. Why did this happen? Why did it happen? Hasn't this situation come about because of the policies and steps we have taken? Today there are questions of corruption, corruption and misrule about leadership. It is no longer from the executive body to discuss these matters. A special convention is required. For that, it is better to call the central working committee itself, otherwise we will submit a petition with 40 percent signatures.

Mahat, who is also the spokesperson of the party, said that it is not right to raise the issue of a special convention when the chairman is undergoing treatment and the leadership should be removed humanely. We are also not in favor of not reforming the party. However, it is not good to talk about calling a special convention before the president who is undergoing treatment returns, it is not good to say that the leadership should be removed now,' said Mahat, 'We can discuss how to proceed from the meeting of the central working committee after the chairman returns.' Party president Sher Bahadur Deuba and his wife Arju Rana Deuba, who were injured in an attack by protesters on August 24, are being treated at a military hospital in the cantonment, Congress leaders said.

However, General Minister Thapa and Sharma have been insisting on the need to change the policy and leadership of the party to address the feelings of the Yuva Jamaat within the Congress. Mahamantri Thapa has given a message to intervene for policy and leadership through a video last Saturday . "There has been so much upheaval, can we sustain the party as it is, it is not possible," said Thapa, "We have always raised the right things, but left in the middle, this is our weakness." This time we will not leave.' He said that if there is no reorganization of the party, the sentiments expressed in the movement and the expectations of the youth cannot be addressed.

Thapa said that since there was a special convention in 2014, the policy and leadership of the party can be changed through the special convention this time too. The working committee led by Suvarnashamsher Rana, elected in 2012, decided to hold a special convention. Suvarnaji resigned and paved the way and BP Koirala became the chairman in 2014. The same leadership made the Congress a party with a two-thirds majority. Today, such an opportunity has come again," said Thapa.

If the leadership wants to renew the old active memberships, open new memberships for two months, suspend the articles of the constitution and hold a central session directly, they have presented an option to go to the regular convention . If not, he has the option of going to a special convention as a voter representative of the 14th convention. We are also not in favor of not reforming the party, but it is not good to talk about calling a special convention before the chairman of the treatment can return, it is not good to say that the leadership should be removed now .--Prakasharan Mahat, Spokesperson, Congress
