Nepali Congress President Sushil Koirala on Saturday expressed his dissatisfaction at the publicity campaigns launched by senior leader Sher Bahadur Deuba and Vice-president Ram Chandra Poudel for the party’s upcoming general convention.

Deuba and Poudel are urging leaders and cadres to support their candidacies for the party president. 

The Congress is holding 

its 13th General Convention on March 3-6 to elect a new leadership.

Hinting at the leader duo, Koirala said, “Some friends have come up with posters without consultation in the party.” Deuba has opened his office in New Baneshwor targeting the party’s general convention.

Koirala, however, did not speak about his plans to run for the party president for a second term. He only said he wanted to take the party forward by holding wide consultations in the party.
