party has made an important political decision. We demand the formation of a powerful

make it public.” Bamdev Gautam, former Deputy Prime Minister and General
Secretary of CPN-ML, reacting to charges of corruption levelled against him by CPN-UML
leaders, in Bimarsha. * * * “UML
leaders have exhibited the lowest behavior by labelling prejudiced charges against me. We

Work and Transport, in Ghatana Ra Bichar. * * * “Look
