Deputy prime minister and Nepali Congress leader Sujata Koirala has said the three senior leaders of her party are competent to lead the party in the absence of Girija Prasad Koirala.
During an interaction with journalists in the capital on Monday, Koirala said the NC should have collective leadership and that the leaders should be guided by principle of consensus and cooperation, as envisioned by Late GP Koirala, to lead the party in the right direction.
Acting president Shushil Koirala, senior leader Sher Bahadur Deuba and vice president Ram Chandra Poudel, who is also the parliamentary party leader, have been claiming party leadership after the demise of party president GP Koirala.
In another context, Sujata said the parties have no alternatives to forge consensus to ensure that country gets a new statute within May 28 deadline. Widening differences only invite instability in the country, she added.
She refused to comment on the possibility of the change in government leadership as well as the interrogation by Public Account Committee (PAC) of Prime Minister Madhav Kumar Nepal regarding the Machine Readable Passport (MRP) contract to India without bidding
