Nepal has potential for economic benefit: Leader Dr Rijal

Bhairahawa, May 16: Central member of the Nepali Congress and former minister, Dr Minendra Rijal, has said Nepal is yet to reap expected benefits despite its location between two large economies.     

At an interaction organized by NC regional working committee of Rupandehi here Thursday, leader Dr Rijal, however, viewed Nepal has huge potential of economic growth once it reaps benefits from the economic powers in neighbourhood.     

On a different note, Dr Rijal viewed NC should not forge electoral alliance but field its candidacies on its own strength.     

He argued that NC's votes declined because it did not field its own candidates in all constituencies.     

The programme was also addressed by district leader Sushil Gurung. (RSS)
