Leader Dr Rawal blasts UML’s action against him inconsistent with party statute
It may be noted that the CPN (UML) recently decided to expel Rawal from the party even with the annulment of his general membership.
KATHMANDU: CPN (UML)’s former leader Dr Bhim Bahadur Rawal has said the party’s action against him is not aligned with the party’s statute, rule of law and procedures.
It may be noted that the CPN (UML) recently decided to expel Rawal from the party even with the annulment of his general membership.
At a press meet organised for the first time following the party’s move, the leader accused that the party took revenge against him for his candidacy to the post of party Chair in the 11th General Convention.
The former Vice Chair of the party announced that he would engage in what he called the ‘Motherland Awareness Campaign’ and move ahead based on the feedback and sentiments of his ‘well-wishers’ ‘supporters’ and the masses.
The UML’s Secretariat meeting on December 25 took the action against him. The leader has already served as the Deputy Prime Minster, Minister for Tourism and Civil Aviation, the Minister for Home Affairs and the Minister for Defence at different times.
The leader who preferred to identify himself as a ‘nationalist leader’ was the competitor for the party’s Chair post in the UML’s11th National Congress.
He had obtained the party leadership in 2032 BS.
As he said, since his association with the party, he remained dedicated towards the country, people, sovereignty and the party principles amidst challenges.
