Coordinator of Naya Shakti Baburam Bhattarai has accused the ruling CPN-UML and the UCPN (Maoist) of acting against the spirit of the communist party.

At an interaction organised under the Madhes awareness campaign here Friday, leader Bhattarai further said the behaviour and the culture of these ruling parties were against communist principles.

He pointed out the need that communist policy and behaviour should be harmonious. If any party is found working against this basic norm, it is deceiving people, he argued.

According to him, the Madhesi people are truly patriotic. Those claiming patriotic to self but tagging others as India-oriented based on complexion and language can not steer the country to development.

"The true nationality is the harmonious link of ethnicities, language, religion and culture from mountain, hill and Tarai," he stressed.

Meanwhile, leader Bhattarai inaugurated the district office of his party at Bhairahawa. RSS
