BIRATNAGAR: Nepali Congress (NC) General-Secretary Gagan Thapa clarified that there will not be any amendment in the fundamental provisions in the constitution at anyone's whim.

Talking to journalists at the Biratnagar Airport in Biratnagar today, General-Secretary Thapa asserted that the political mechanism was formed between the two biggest parties-Nepal Congress and CPN (UML) to institutionalize the seven-point agreement inked between the two.

Thapa shared that the two coalition partner will first forge a common view on constitution amendment and will deliberate on it with other political parties.

Reiterating that constitution amendment on fundamental provisions will not be held on behest of anyone impulsively, he assured that they will decide on the due course of action in consultation and consensus of all concerned and responsible parties.

Furthermore, he added that his party will maintain friendly relations with all countries in line with the spirit of the constitution and the principles of Panchasheel.

On a different context, he expressed his confidence that the impending China visit of PM KP Sharma Oli will help in dispelling the suspicion and unnecessary speculations and rumours regarding Belt and Road Initiatives (BRI).

"Since a huge amount of capital investment is needed for development works, we are currently expecting grant assistance from our neighbouring countries not loans," he asserted.

As for the upcoming local level by-election on December 1, Thapa claimed that his party will fare well in compared to the previous election.

The by-election is taking place on December 1 to fill 42 vacant seats in local levels across the country.
