A letter issued by the party, which reportedly has its headquarters in Kailali’s Dhangadhi, to journalists stated that a ‘sabotage programme’ will be launched from mid-December to mid-February in support of the King, reports said.
In a letter distributed to the journalists the party had warned that the party would embark on an armed struggle.
“An armed struggle has been declared from the far west to show disagreement with the current political activities, in the context that all others except the seven political parties and Maoists are being treated badly,†the letter added.
It also said that the Nepal Janatantrik Party was formed on May 24, 2006. The CDs distributed to the journalists contained the party’s declaration.
The letter read that Rana Bahadur Chand ‘Samrat’, Shailendra Dhami ‘Jeevan’, Tapendra Bhatta ‘Smriti’, Janak Bhandari ‘Basant’ are the central president, vice-president, general secretary and secretary of the party, respectively.
The party’s seven-member committee also includes Narendra ‘Bam’, Sudarshan Damai ‘Surya’ and Sanyog Bhat ‘Sansar’. nepalnews.com pb Oct 16 06
