KATHMANDU:- Senior leader of the CPN (Unified Socialist) and former Prime Minister Jhala Nath Khanal has pointed out the need of addressing ideological struggle within the party.
At a press conference organised on Saturday, he opined that the party leadership has not been able to bring ideological policy and programmes of socialism passed by the party’s general convention.
The CPN (Unified Socialist) leader stressed the need of holding discussions from the secretariat to the standing committee about the challenges seen in the party.
“Ideological struggle within the party should be addressed through discussions as well as solutions should be explored in the party’s meeting”, he argued.
Remembering the five-decade long collaboration with party chairperson Madhav Kumar Nepal, leader Khanal opined, “Chairman Nepal asked me to quit the party. The dispute with Chairperson is not on a personal level. Ideological and theoretical clarity was necessary in order to establish justification even after four years of split from the CPN (UML).”(RSS)
