Nepali Congress leader Mahesh Acharya has commented that the recent decisions of the performance committee have started violating the dignity enshrined in the party's statute.
He has said that the decision and propaganda like calling the demands and initiatives of the majority of the delegates of the general convention 'illegal' are flawed and objectionable.
Amidst the escalating conflict within the Congress over the special general convention, Acharya has made his views on the justification of the general convention public by writing a status on social media. He has said that according to the Congress statute, the highest body of the party is not the central committee but the central general convention, and that there is a provision that all decisions of the working committee must be approved by the central working committee, and that now even meetings of the working committee have been stopped. He wrote, ‘With the country’s increasingly serious situation after Bhadra 23 and 24, the continuous disregard for our party statute, policy confusion, organizational malaise and the current crisis of leadership have made the party’s special general convention inevitable.’
Explaining the statute, he said that the Central Working Committee does not have the authority to unilaterally decide on the party’s policy and organizational issues and that the committee should be accountable to the general convention. He said, ‘The recent decisions of the performance committee have started violating these dignity of the statute.’
