Nepali Congress General Secretary Gagan Kumar Thapa has said leaders should not interpret the ideas and decisions of national leader BP Koirala according to their own convenience and interests. Speaking at the launch of writer Dharma Gautam’s book B.P. ra Bidrohka Ti Din, Thapa said Koirala was not merely a leader of a political party but a great thinker who could envision developments ahead of his time. Thapa said Koirala’s decision to adopt the policy of national reconciliation in 2033 BS was a historic decision linked to the political circumstances of the time, national sovereignty and democratic values. He criticised the growing tendency among politicians to invoke Koirala overnight to serve their political interests and interpret his ideas according to their own preferences. He said Congress leaders have recently been invoking Koirala and the policy of national reconciliation to meet their own political needs.
