Chairman of the Interim Election Council of Ministers, Khil Raj Regmi, has addressed the 68th General Assembly of the United Nations (UNGA). Addressing the UNGA last Saturday, Chairman Regmi said that the necessary preparation has been made for the upcoming Constituent Assembly polls which will be vital for Nepal’s peace process. He also thanked the international community for the “moral and material support” made available for the elections.
“The election will provide the mandate of the people for writing a constitution, advance civil and political rights, ensure people’s sovereignty in decision-making in state affairs and institutionalize multi-party democracy, federalism and republicanism,” he said.
Meanwhile, Regmi has also met UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon, Indian Prime Minister Dr Man Mohan Singh and US Assistant Secretary of State for South Asian and Central Asian Affairs Mr. Robert Blake in the sidelines of the UNGA.
Regmi has also held an interaction with the representatives of the Nepali expatriate community in New York.
