I’m in need of politician like Girijababu: Prachanda

KAVRE: Newly elected Chairman of the UCPN (Maoist) Pushpa Kamal Dahal Prachanda has said that he was looking for a trustworthy and brave politician like former Prime Minister and Nepali Congress President Girija Prasad Koirala.

“I have not met such a political partner like Girijababu after his demise. I am in need of such politician lately to end the protracted deadlock of the country,” Prachanda revealed at a program in Dhulikhel today.

Prachanda also warned of totalitarianism in the country if the political parties delayed forging consensus to end the current deadlock. However, opposition parties including the NC and UML have charged the current government itself practising totalitarian system in the country.
