Disaster, humanitarian sensitivity and the role of the opposition

At the outset, the report paid tribute to those who lost their lives in floods and disasters in Bhotekoshi, Manang and other areas a month ago.

It stated that the party had risen above all political interests and prejudices to support the government during the crisis and would continue to do so.
