Kathmandu, Nov 23: Litterateur Yagyanidhi Dahal has suggested the political parties to deliver such constitution and federalism that could address all ethnicities and communities of the country.

Talking to media persons at his own residence at Mandikhatar in the capital city on Saturday evening, litterateur Dahal said, "The State must address all and encompass their aspirations. The late leader BP Koirala and the great poet Devkota too used to stress this."

According to him, the election manifesto of the Nepali Congress in 2004BS had included religious secularism. "If the Hindu religious advocates to declare Nepal as the Hindu state again, they must provide a cow and thirteen ropanis of land to each family."

In another context, he said, "Prithvi Narayan Shah is a man full of valour. He charted out present Nepal and identified us as Nepali.

Mr Dahal has been receiving treatment of kidney disease expending Rs 100,000 every month.

"I’m treating on my own expense, and don't worry why the State did not heed me," the senior litterateur Dahal said, adding that not any of the helpless can humiliate himself."

Meanwhile, a special poetry symposium will be organized by the Mahakavi Literary Foundation next week, informed coordinator Ratnanidhi Regmi Sukracharya. RSS
