"We commend the contributions made by the office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights to ensuring the protection of human rights and to raising awareness of the need for respecting human rights and their interdependence with socio-economic and political progress. Nepal continues to work together with her office in promoting and protecting all human rights,” she said.
"We firmly believe that only the democratic path paves the way for a harmonious, just and equitable society in a multi-racial, multi-lingual and multi-religious setting. The people of Nepal look forward to April 10 as a great historic day when they will vote for the Constituent Assembly elections,” she said. "We appeal for the participation of as many international election observers as possible in this historic mission.”
