Speaking at the same rally, UCPN-Maoist Standing Committee member and Finance Minister Barshaman Pun has said that the Chhaitra-24 means the Janaandolan II day has a great importance in the history of Nepal as it led the country to changes; the UCPN-Maoist would lead the country for the next two decades, leading other democratic parties together in favor of nationality, independence and people's interest.
Speaking at the same rally, UCPN-Maoist Politburo member/former Minister Hishila Yami has said that the Mohan Baidya faction of the UCPN-Maoist would be dealt with in political and ideological terms.
Founding father of Communist Party of Nepal, Nar Bahadur Karmacharya has urged the parties to complete the tasks of peace process and constitution writing considering the people's sentiment regarding the peace and the constitution.
