Nepali Congress (NC) General-Secretary Gagan Thapa has said that it would be a disregard of the parliament to say that there was no rationale for the government and parliament to endorse the MCC with a descriptive note.
Talking to media persons at the Biratnagar Airport, general-secretary Thapa asserted that our own treaties, acts, and international laws reserved our rights to describe any agreement. Stating that there was nothing new in the description, he said that whatever the MCC compact had in it were clarified.
According to him, the NC was clear about the description of the MCC compact. The descriptive note was needed to enlighten other political parties about it and to have it endorsed by the parliament. He believed that the misconception about MCC compact among the people would go away soon.
Thapa opined that those spreading misinformation about MCC should be constantly held to account about MCC for the next few years. Otherwise, he warned, they will continue to spread rumors and misconceptions on other similar issues.
Similarly, NC's Vice-president Dhanaraj Gurung clarified that the incumbent government formed a coalition in compulsive condition and it would move ahead depending on the situation and circumstances. As for forging alliance for election, he ruled out the possibility for the same.
