CPN-UML has objected to the Bilateral Investment Promotion and Protection Agreement (BIPPA) signed Friday between Nepal and India.
The agreement will harm Nepali nationalism, sovereignty, national integrity and economy; the party said, and warned to launch stern agitation against the agreement.
The agreement was signed at the presence of Prime Minister Dr. Baburam Bhattarai and his Indian counterpart Dr. Manmohan Singh in New Delhi on Friday during the four-day official visit of the PM.
CPN-UML Chairman Jhalanath Khanal objected to it while addressing a program organized by the Naya Naikap Village Party Committee on the occasion of the festivals of Bijaya Dashami, Deepawali and Chhath and Nepal Sambat new year.
He asked what nationalism was this of Dr. Bhattarai who said he will not sign any agreements in the country and signed it after reaching India. Khanal said the PM, who was never tired of speaking on nationalism, had his nationalism over and done with, after he reached India.
