CPN (UML) Chairperson KP Sharma Oli said his party considered fulfilling the national aspiration of 'Prosperous Nepal, Happy Nepali' through democracy as it was the mandate of his party.
At the 40th Standing Committee of the International Conference of Asian Political Parties (ICAP) and fifth annual meeting of the Asia-Europe Political Forum, Chairperson Oli viewed they should get out of the narrow-mindedness since humanity would be oppressed if political parties and political ideals were guided by parochial thoughts.
Oli, also former Prime Minister, asserted, "Intolerance breeds injustice. It incites human towards injustice, conflict and ruthlessness. Therefore, we have no choice but to move forward to the journey of prosperity while achieving political stability."
The septuagenarian leader urged all the political parties towards nature and environment protection while achieving collective and sustainable progress.
He opined that the role of political parties should not be underestimated as he argued, the political parties were the means to implement the dream of ensuring equal opportunities and access to justice for every citizen.
Rajan Bhattarai, Co-Chairperson of the Asia-Europe Political Forum and Standing Committee Member of ICAP, told the RSS that the assembly would see leaders and experts of political parties from the Asia and European countries deliberating on the contemporary issues for the shared future of the two continents.
