Kathmandu, March 28: Prime Minister KP Sharma Oli today stressed the need for boosting up country’s economy through political stability and enforcement of the new constitution.

“Now the country is suffering from current economic trouble. The government will lift the troubled economy,” he said while inaugurating the 7th National General Convention of the General Federation of Nepalese Trade Unions (GEFONT) here today.

“I am at the helm of the government only for a delivery. I will raise the whole society by making the country a model democracy,” he said, adding that the new government marks the beginning of a new era.
