Hopes for govt increased: Sapkota

Kathmandu, Aug. 21

Former Speaker of the House of Representatives, Agni Prasad Sapkota, has said that people's hopes for the current government have increased.

He expressed this opinion at the Kirtipur municipality-level meeting on the issue of 'Maoist's special transformation campaign with the people' held here.

Former speaker Sapkota, who was also the central vice-president of CPN (Maoist Centre), said that the people were excited because the government had started good works one after another.

"The government is doing a lot of good work, if we can win the hearts of the people, the achievements of all the movements can be institutionalized," he said.

He said that it is necessary to promote the mechanisation, modernisation, industrialisation and marketing of agriculture while moving forward for development, prosperity, good governance, and social justice.

Sapkota said that while the government has started good work against corruption in Nepal, the ‘Cold War’ is being intensively waged by invisible forces, he indicated that various types of non-national storms may come in the coming days.

While stating that there are various kinds of conspiracies against the government and the party, he held the view that they should stand on their own to fight for nationalism.

Likewise, he emphasized the need to make full use of current information technology and social media to strengthen the campaign in a peaceful manner, unlike in the people's war fought in the past.
