Preparation for the unification of Rastriya Prajatantra Party (RPP) led by Pashupati Shumsher Rana and Rastriya Janashakti Party (RJP) led by Surya Bahadur Thapa is on final stage.

The two parties have found consensus for the unification in all issues but the name and the chairman of the united party. At a meeting between Thapa and Rana on Friday, Rana had proposed ‘Unified RPP’ and Thapa had proposed ‘Rastriya Prajatantrik Janashakti Party’ as the name of the new party.

Likewise, they have also agreed to form a high-level central coordination committee led by RPP senior leader Bishwa Bandhu Thapa, while retaining the central committees of both the parties for the time being. Earlier, Rana and Thapa both had been staking the chair of the united party.

They have also agreed not to dissolve the district, town and village committees of both the parties and work on it after sorting out the issues with the central committee.

The two leaders have agreed to retain plough as their ballot symbol and craft a new flag by incorporating the elements of the flags of both parties.

Rana and Thapa have also agreed to initiate dialogues for unification with RPP-Nepal led by Kamal Thapa after their parties are united.

Sources say, leaders of the former monarchy supporting parties intensified their unification attempt concluding, they would have emerged as the fourth largest party in the Constituent Assembly after Unified CPN (Maoist), Nepali Congress and CPN (UML) had they contested the elections as a single party.

All three parties are breakaway factions of the erstwhile RPP formed by the leaders of the Panchayati regime prior to 1991 elections. They had been supporting for monarchy until recently. As of now only RPP-Nepal is advocating for monarchy.

RPP, RPP-Nepal and RJP have eight, four and three seats respectively in the CA. nepalnews.com

We need to protect our country's sovereignity but not by the leadership of these old 'wolves', who are blessed with by Indian politicians and works for their interest. They have killed many innocent peoples in the name of politics and have accomted vast illegal and untaxed property to last for seven generations into their family and to buy votes of people. Do you call that a true nationalist, unification of such parties will benefit our country?

Kamal Thapa should lead as his political stand point has always been consistent and more credible which will ultimately bring in more supporters. Definately should not go to Rana, seniority should not be the sole reason for being chairperson now, look at Girija and N.Comgress. Nepal ko chhoro  - To Dika   |90.220.133.xxx |2009-12-06 12:37:09 Dika, your comments itself proves your lowly thinking and character. Besides 'saraping' the monarchy and insulting me you have said NOTHING OF SUBSTANCE. Precisely my point. People like you have no good ideas and no good wish for the country either. As long as you can pull someone else's leg, you're happy. If anyone can be described as an 18th century numskull it is YOU. Those of us supporting monarchy are not supporting feudalism etc. This is just your 'khutta-tanne nara'. WE WANT CONSUTIONAL MONARCHY. Many developed countries, non-feudal countries have this system and are doing well. There is no reason we cannot too. MONARCHY IS A USEFUL INSUTION FOR NEPAL, AND IT IS BEST FOR US TO RESTORE IT. JAI DESH, JAI NARESH! JAI NEPAL!! Dika  - You must be stupid friend.   |115.64.201.xxx |2009-12-06 11:58:21 To: 'so called nepal ko choro': I don't totally blame you for your thinking as you must be partly stupid in commenting in that way. Yes you are partly right: but partly wrong. Look, the current situation of Nepalese is all because of the stupidity of feudal netas of the bhikhari parties whose irresponsible behaviour and stupid greed and khurafati selfish thoughts the royal families got the opportunity to rule like a 18th century tribal leaders of Afica; who would appear good to all though using such stupid party leaders at the same time kept people in the stone age so that they could continue to enjoy the mojmasti in the palace. The country looked like their own provate property. This is 21st century and people have seen the world; they have studied hostory of the world's developed world and how this happens. Our misfortune is that we don't have such a leadership to make real things happen to make Nepalese people prosperous and ...

HE YAM LOK KA DEVTA PLEASE CALL THESE OLD FELLOWS SOON Nepal ko chhoro 2  - Best wishes to unified RPP, Long live Monarchy!   |90.220.133.xxx |2009-12-06 09:14:28 ...the foreign-backed forces' purpose is to destabilize, weaken Nepal and steal all our resources. Parties are their tool for weakening us. When will the parties (and their foolish supporters) realize this??! The sooner parties and their supporters realize this and understand that monarchy is a force for good in the country, we can be strong again. Therefore, with much pride I say: JAI DESH! JAI NARESH!! I WISH THE UNIFIED RPP ALL THE BEST IN RESTORING CONSUTIONAL MONARCHY, UNITING THE COUNTRY AND RESTORING PEACE!! I hope you prevail against all those AWASARBADI, SELFISH, CORRUPT FORCES THAT HAVE TRIED TO DESTROY OUR COUNTRY IN THE NAME OF "DEMOCRACY"! Nepal ko chhoro  - Best wishes to unified RPP, Long Live Monarchy!   |90.220.133.xxx |2009-12-06 09:05:54 To Dika, er and other anti-monarchists: No matter how much you yap against the monarchy, there are sufficient Nepalis who support monarchy in Nepal in one form or another. We are not slaves of monarchy, we are people who have respect for the insution and truly believe it can be used for the greater good of the country. We have every right to hold our beliefs and you have no right to obstruct us from doing so. Moreover, your anti-monarchist thinking and actions have gotten us NOWHERE. Parties have had 3 years. If they were truly for the nation and the people they would have done some good things by now. Monarchy or monarchists made no obstruction for them at all. Fact is, all these politicians are awasarbadi chors who exploit Nepali ppl for their own benefit. They have been put into power by India and other forces building on a misinformation campaign against the monarchy; and their purpose is to break up and weaken N... Powered by !JoomlaComment 3.26
