Birgunj, August 7
In its bid to strengthen the party’s presence and cope with the challenges set by regional political forces in the region, the ruling Nepal Communist Party is launching a ‘Marxism publicity campaign’ in eight districts of southern plains of the country, which are now parts of Province 2.
During the campaign, the party leaders will try to teach locals that Marxism is the best instrument to fight against all suppression and discrimination they have been facing for decades. Young people are primary targets of the campaign.
The campaign will be launched with a two-day function to be hosted in Birgunj of Parsa district on August 17 and 18. Top leaders of the party, other communist leaders and leftist intellectuals will attend the function, according to the party.
The party has formed a committee under the leadership of former minister Purushottam Paudel to make the campaign a success. Six sub-committees are working under the main committee.
Meanwhile, the committee organised a press conference in Birgunj to inform public about preparations being made for the campaign.
