Kathmandu, October 31
Naya Shakti Nepal coordinator Baburam Bhattarai says his party will launch a struggle for people’s rights, which according to him would be more advanced than the armed conflict waged by the Maoist party that he was a part of.
Inaugurating his party’s 15th federal meeting in Kathmandu on Wednesday, he said the new movement would be different from the armed conflict, but of a higher standard.
The former prime minister defined politics itself as a struggle, and announced that his party would launch another round of struggle to establish itself in the national politics and give a momentum to economic development and prosperity.
Bhattarai reiterated that big parties’ ideologies had turned obsolete and hence people were looking for new political ideologies. He claimed Naya Shakti would meet that expectation.
The leader, however, accepted that his party could not expand its organisation to the local level, assuring the party would do so within next five months with a new plan of action.
