NC marking national unity and reconciliation day
Kathmandu, Dec 31 (RSS): Nepali Congress
(NC) is marking the national unity and reconciliation day across the country by
organizing several programmes today.
The historical party Nepali Congress has

when the party founder BP Koirala and other veteran leaders returned the
country after ending a long hiatus of exile in India.
On the occasion, NC is observing the 45th
national reconciliation day by organizing public rally, seminar, corner meet
and talk programmes in all 77 districts of the country today, shared NC office

Nepal's first people-elected Prime
Minister BP Koirala, iron man Ganeshman Singh, leaders Shailaja Acharya and
Khum Bahadur Khadka among others had repatriated putting forth the principle of
national unity nad reconciliation on Poush 16, 2033 BS so as to safeguard the
sovereignty of the country.
BP Koirala had returned the country to
protect its sovereignty from the then political interference in the South Asia,
ignoring the prosecution order against him. On the occasion, BP had noted the
urgency of reconciliation between the people's power (political parties) and
palace power (King) for the safeguarding of country's sovereignty.
The then Panchayati regime had arrested
BP, Ganeshman and other leaders from the airport and directly took them to the
Sundarijal jail. Earlier, the then King Mahendra had deposed the people-elected
PM BP Koirala, his government and the parliament in 2017 BS to introduce the
party-less Panchayati system.
It may be noted that BP Koirala, also a
renowned name in the Nepali literature, had authored popular collection of
fictions and novels during his jail life in Sundairjal.
