I want to become the party president. The convention is not just about bringing in new leadership, it is also a time to build a new party. - General Secretary Thapa
What you should know
Nepali Congress General Secretary Gagan Kumar Thapa has announced that he will contest for the post of President in the 15th General Convention. Addressing a program organized in Kathmandu on Monday, General Secretary Thapa claimed that he is a candidate for the post of President in the 15th General Convention and will become the President.
He also said that it is time to not only change the leadership of the general convention but also to make the party new. He also objected to the delay in sending the work of active members.
He said that he is confident of holding the general convention on time. He also said that as the General Secretary, he has been telling party President Sher Bahadur Deuba that the general convention should be held on time and that he is clear about this. He said that he is ready to pay any price, but the general convention should be held before the elections.
This is what General Secretary Thapa announced.
While the work of active members is being done from below, the matter of sending active members from place to place is not happening as it should be. But I do not blame anyone, because I believe that it can still be done. We are trying. Looking at the newspapers, it is no longer possible, it cannot be done, it is like pouring water on a good road before, now the road is muddy, it is impossible to walk on. The road was good. The convention could have been concluded on time.
But we are slowly smelling it. We are clearly telling the party leadership on this issue. We are ready to pay any price. I am currently the party president's candidate for the 15th general convention. I want to become the party president, I want to become the party president. The convention is not just about bringing in new leadership, it is also a time to build a new party.
