Prime Minister KP Sharma Oli today reiterated that the government was open to dialogue with all disgruntled parties and communities regarding their legitimate political concerns.
“I urge all to realise the need of cooperation and collaboration for the sake of unity, development and stability.
I invite all stakeholders to take the ‘nation first’ motto for the betterment of the country,” Oli said, addressing the inaugural session of International Buddhist Conference organised on the occasion of Buddha Jayanti, the 2,560th birth anniversary of Lord Buddha,.
Nepal is striving to effectively implement the constitution, he said. “Our challenge is to restore hope, inculcate self-confidence, rebuild better and revive our economy. Our efforts are closely linked to the long cherished aspirations of the people,” he said.
The conference is being held with the theme ‘Lumbini, Nepal: the Birthplace of Lord Buddha and Fountain of Buddhism and World peace’.
The PM remembered Nepal’s suffering last year due to the earthquake, the Tarai agitation and the five-month long undeclared blockade of goods at the Nepal-India border points that brought about a humanitarian crisis in the country.
“Despite such ups and downs, our focus now is on the implementation of the Constitution. Altogether 193 laws were incompatible with the new constitution. These have been amended and we plan to have additional 138 new laws enacted within a year.
