Mechi-Mahakali campaign for directly elected president: Chair Dahal

Hetauda: CPN (Maoist Centre) chairperson Pushpa Kamal Dahal ‘Prachanda’ said his party would initiate a Mechi-Mahakali campaign calling for a directly elected presidential system in the country.

Addressing the second municipal conference of the Young Communist League (YCL) of Thaha Municipality, Makawanpur today, Chair Dahal said the directly elected presidential system would ensure political stability in the country.

Chair Dahal further said he had waived loans up to Rs 30,000 to the needy general public in his first premiership and removed load-shedding in his second term.

‘When I was the Prime Minister for the first time, I had waived the debt to render relief to the general public and expedited the construction of the mid-hill highway for connectivity,’ he claimed. Construction of the Covered Hall is in process with investment from the Bagmati province government under the initiative of the Maoist Centre, he claimed, adding a cold store has been built as a special initiative of the local government.

Dahal mentioned that the Damgade Mahadevbeshi road is being constructed with an investment of Rs 98 million, under the integrated urban infrastructure programme. The Madan Bhandari Science and Technology University was established in Chitlang, the former Prime Minister shared.
