Kathmandu, Nepal: The main opposition party, CPN-UML has made clear on Wednesday that it will not allow amending the newly promulgated constitution of Nepal.
While making the decision made by the 43th Standing Committee of the party UML General Secretary Ishwor Pokharel said that the constitution can’t be amended at the interest of other countries.
Though the UML has not mentioned the other countries that have shown interest to amend the constitution of Nepal, Pokhrel clearly intended to the neighboring India. The constitution can’t be amended to serve the interest of foreign powers.
It was reported that Indian Prime Minister Naredra Modi had suggested the visiting Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Home affairs Bimalendra Nidhi to amend the constitution to take into bard the agitating Madhes based parties.
However, Nidhi has already made clear that there was no any discussion regarding the amendment of the constitution during the meeting with Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
The government is preparing to amend the constitution to please the foreigners which is not only objectionable but meaningless, the UML has said.
The activities of the government seem to have intended to bow down before other countries, UML General Secretary Pokhrel said accusing the incumbent government of attempting to take the country toward instability, indecision and constitution vacuum.
Conspiracy is being hatched to invite political and social conflicts in the country, reads the statement distributed in the press conference.
