POKHARA: Nepali Congress (NC) Vice President Ram Chandra Paudel said that the proposed Constituent Assembly election scheduled for November 19 even if dissenting political parties like the CPN Maoist did not participate in it.
Speaking at a press conference organised by the Press Union Kaski Chapter in Pokhara on Sunday, leader Paudel said that his party is willing to go for the elections by taking all dissenting parties into confidence and resolving differences through talks.
“CA election will happen on the scheduled calendar, no force can stop the election. If anyone tried to disrupt the election then the people will chase them away,” he said.

During the programme, Paudel said that the new CA will promulgate the much desired constitution within a year.

The NC leader said that his party will form the Election Booth Security Committee to conduct the election in free, fair and peaceful manner at a time when the poll-opposing parties are aiming to foil the election.

Moreover, he said that his party will deploy cadres in each booth and retaliate the CPN-Maoist if the latter tried to disrupt the election.
