Build up natural defense against terrorism: Gupta

Rajbiraj, Sept. 10 (RSS): Minister for Information and Communications and NC central member Jaya Prakash Prasad Gupta has urged the people to not always rely on the police for peace and security in the country but generate natural defensive capacity against terrorist activities in the society.

Addressing a mass meeting organised by Nepali Congress at Fattehpur of Namuna VDC in Saptari district today, Minister Gupta pointed out the need for workers of the party to unite in order to discourage the politics of murder and terror which has gripped some parts of the country.

He also clarified that the government has introduced different programmes in the Maoist-affected areas to relieve the people of the terror perpetrated by the Maoists.

On the occasion Minister Gupta also presented the party’s membership to ex-DDC chairman of Saptari Surendra Jha who left the RPP to join the Nepali Congress and various other persons entering the Nepali Congress from various political parties.

NC Fattehpur village committee chairman Mukhilal Chaudhary presided.
