President of Nepali Congress Girija Prasad Koirala has said the upcoming protest programmes of the seven-party alliance will be decisive and there will be no opportunity for the king to take his next step unilaterally.
Talking to journalists in his hometown Biratnagar upon his arrival on Monday, Koirala ruled out the possibility of talks with the king until the latter returned the seized power to the people, reports said.
"We want to achieve the goal through the strength of the movement that will be intensifi
ed from early next week."
Claiming that the movement will be crucial, he warned it will remove the King if he failed to realise the gravity of the situation in time.
Stating that the movement of the seven political parties will be entirely peaceful, he said, “Government agents might resort to tactics like throwing stones to create havoc during the protest programmes. Past experience has shown that. We need to be watchful.”
Replying to a question whether the Maoists would infiltrate in the guise of supporting the parties, Koirala said, "The Maoists are on their own track, and we are on the track of absolute democracy and peace."
Stating that legal professionals, civic society and professionals will participate in the movement, he also urged entrepreneurs to shut down their factories and business for four days to lend their support to the movement.
Talks with the Maoists were held to end the autocratic regime, restore peaceful democracy, and create a free, sovereign and developed Nepal, he said.
Reiterating that he took the same stand while he held talks with the representatives of China, India, US and Britain, he said: “The King has ignored even the Supreme Court verdict and his autocratic rule has touched the limit.”
The seven agitating political parties that are agitating since February 1 royal takeover of last year have announced valley centered protest programme for the restoration of democracy, which they said will be decisive.
