NC general secretaries oppose electoral alliances

Toeing Gagan Thapa’s line, Bishwa Prakash Sharma now says forging alliances ahead of polls would be inappropriate.

Nepali Congress general secretaries duo Gagan Thapa and Bishwa Prakash Sharma have ruled out the idea of an electoral alliance, a topic which has sparked heated debate in Nepali politics for some time. Thapa had first spoken against forging any pre-poll alliance during the Mahasamiti meeting of the Nepali Congress, which concluded in February.
