Kathmandu: Former Prime Minister and Chairperson of CPN (Maoist Centre) Pushpa Kamal Dahal ‘Prachanda’ has emphasized that the 10th National Games should be held on the scheduled date.

After inspecting the Karnali Province Stadium in Surkhet today, he said the 10th National Games should be held in Surkhet as per schedule. If there is an attempt to postpone it under any pretext it will be a disaster for thousands of athletes and sports lovers.
