Nepali Congress leader Prakashman Singh has underscored the need for a capable leadership that could steer the party in
the right direction.

founding president of the NWA, Mangaladevi Singh today, leader Singh said the NC leadership was losing the trust of its cadres.
It is
imperative to have the right leadership in the NC to further strengthen the party because if the NC is not strong, the democratic system
wont be strong, he said, adding that only the NC could spearhead the economic revolution
The former deputy prime minister lauded the contribution and gallantry of late Mangaladevi, who had raised voice for the rights of Nepali
women.
On the occasion, NCs central member and Spokesperson Bishwa Prakash Sharma termed Mangaladevi as a lsquo;courageous woman
He credited the increasing number of Nepali women rising to the leadership position due to the revolution sparked by Mangaladevi.
NC central
member and women department Chief Ishwori Neupane said the Constitution of Nepal had ensured the rights of women.
Another central member
Sita Gurung viewed that the NWA should press for implementation of at least 33 per cent of inclusion of women as guaranteed by the NCs
statute in every ward, rural municipalities, province and the centre mechanism of the state.
