History teaches, rather than gives us power; we must learn from it and seek new answers: Gagan Thapa

KATHMANDU: Nepali Congress President Gagan Kumar Thapa has stressed the need for open, fact- and reason-based dialogue within the country, Parliament and the party, questioning the relevance of Parliament in the absence of the prime minister.

Addressing the inaugural ceremony of the Nepali Congress’ 15th General Convention at the historic Khula Manch in Kathmandu, Thapa highlighted the significance of the venue and recalled the contributions of democratic leaders BP Koirala, Girija Prasad Koirala and former party president Sher Bahadur Deuba.

During his address, Thapa expressed strong dissatisfaction with the current functioning of Parliament.
