CHITWAN, Oct 22: Nepali Congress (NC) Vice President Ram Chandra Poudel on Thursday said relations of NC leaders with Prime Minister Madhav Kumar Nepal have gone sour after his decision to promote Sujata Koirala to deputy prime minister.
“NC leaders have been dissatisfied with the prime minister after he chose to promote Sujata against the suggestion of most NC central leaders,” said Poudel.
Poudel arrived in Chitwan to address a condolence meeting organized on the 13th day of the demise of NC leader Chij Kumar Shrestha.
Talking to mediapersons at Bharatpur Airport, Poudel said an abrupt decision on the part of the prime minister was not appropriate as NC leaders were holding meeting with the party president to resolve the issue of party´s leadership in the coalition government.
He, however, said that NC leaders have good relations with all UML leaders even as the relations with the prime minister have been troubled.
Poudel alleged that the UCPN (Maoist) was chiefly to be blamed for the political deadlock in the country. “There is a limitation to stage protest in the parliament,” he said. “It must be symbolic. The Maoists have no right to paralyze the country by obstructing the parliament indefinitely.”
Poudel added that the unruly activities of the Maoists had pushed the country to a highly critical situation.
NC Acting President Sushil Koirala also alleged that the political deadlock could not be brought to an end due to Maoist adamance. He argued that the Maoists must exercise flexibility to end the political impasse.
Koirala reiterated that the NC will not tolerate any kind of proposal that drags the President into controversy.

Dear Leader even my child ask me a question " Why all the Nepali politician speak only politics whenever they got a platform to speak" ? ... I have no answer..... Mr Ramchndar is supposed to pay tribute to late Chij Kumar Shrestha and the speech should be relevant to that particular occasion ...but what to say such a leader ?
