The party insisted on the need for implementing a foreign policy which is capable of meeting the interests of the nation and taking it to the path of prosperity.
Mixed economic policy, good governance, building of a corruption-free society, practical education, civic health and the prosperous nations have been priorities of the party, according to the document.
The protection of the Chure region, the modernisation of agriculture and management of better market for agricultural products, youth empowerment and promotion of entrepreneurship, effective disaster management and the physical infrastructure development are other priorities of the party.
