The Secretariat meeting of the NCP UML is scheduled for today at 1 PM. The agenda includes a discussion on the parliamentary party leader Ram Bahadur Thapa’s address delivered on Thursday. Vice President Bishnu Paudel noted that Thapa’s statements do not align with the party’s established policies and norms, indicating that this matter will be seriously deliberated in the Secretariat meeting.
UML leader Surendra Pandey stated that the current situation is a result of the previous government’s inactivity and emphasized the necessity of investigating the events of Bhadra 23 and 24. Thapa had described the outcomes of the Jenaj movement on Bhadra 23 and 24, as well as the election on Falgun 21, as part of a conspiracy.
Vice President Paudel mentioned that appropriate decisions regarding Badal’s controversial remarks will be made during the Secretariat meeting. Meanwhile, leader Surendra Pandey commented, “Blaming others is an old political tactic,” holding the former UML-led government responsible for its inactivity.
Badal wrote on Facebook, “Yesterday in parliament, we witnessed long tales of ‘conspiracy.’ The army did not protect, officials did not support, and technology failed—blaming everyone else!” He also stated, “We cannot ignore the reality that our politics has not aligned with the aspirations of the people.”
