On the occasion, Deuba claimed that the way NC held its general convention in a democratic manner from ward to the central level was a rare occurrence in the other political party's activities and that such exercise proved that the NC alone was established as a democratic party in the true sense of the word.
Deuba argued that NC had conducted general conventions at all levels and women's participation was ensured from the grassroots level. He argued that the principle of inclusiveness that NC embodied would rarely be manifested by other political parties.
Deuba also urged one and all to pay attention to increasing the number of women voters in the party's next general convention. Deuba also extended gratitude to the Central Election Committee for successfully holding the national convention from ward to the center level despite various odds.
A total of 134 office-bearers and members elected from the 14th general convention were provided with certificates by the NC's Central Election Committee coordinator Gopal Krishna Ghimire. The party's central working committee meeting was held following the distribution of certificates to elected members.
