सुदृढ एवम् परिपूर्ण लोकतन्त्र (आठौँ राष्ट्रिय महाधिवेशनबाट पारित नीतिगत प्रतिवेदन)
Highlights
On the occasion of the Chhath Festival 2025, the General Federation of Nepalese Trade Unions (GEFONT) extends its best wishes for happiness, peace, and prosperity to all Nepali brothers and sisters residing in Nepal and abroad.
GEFONT believes that this festival, celebrated through the worship of Sun God and Chhathi Mata, inspires all Nepalis to end class-based, caste-based, gender-based, and all other forms of discrimination, superstitions, and social anomalies; to promote and preserve our indigenous culture; to strengthen mutual harmony; and to enhance national unity among all Nepalis.
The General Federation of Nepalese Trade Unions (GEFONT) organized the Kathmandu Valley Level Extended Meeting under Bagmati Province on October 25, 2025 at the GEFONT Assembly Hall.
Addressing the meeting, GEFONT Vice President Jitendra Shrestha and General Secretary Laxman Sharma highlighted the significance of the meeting and shed light on the Worker Dialogue Programs that GEFONT is set to organize in the changing political context.
The meeting was chaired by Bagmati Province President Ramhari Nepal and attended by GEFONT Secretary Mahendra Lal Shrestha, members of the National Committee, Provincial Committee, and central leaders from GEFONT-affiliated unions.
The General Federation of Nepalese Trade Unions (GEFONT) has extended financial assistance for the medical treatment of Dhupa Devi Rai, former central member and current Central Women’s Committee Secretary of the Central Union of Painter, Plumber, Electro and Construction Workers, Nepal (CUPPEC-Nepal), an affiliate of GEFONT.
Rai recently underwent surgery at R.A. Neuro Hospital, Kanchanbari, Biratnagar, due to a blood clot in her head. From the GEFONT Solidarity Fund, a support amount of NPR 25,000, and from CUPPEC-Nepal, an additional NPR 16,100 in cash were handed over to Rai’s daughter, Laxmi Rana, at the hospital on October 25, 2025, by GEFONT Deputy General Secretary Narnath Luitel and Koshi Province President Kishor Dhamala.
Considering the recently changed political situation, the General Federation of Nepalese Trade Unions (GEFONT) has decided to organize Worker Dialogue Programs across the country.
GEFONT has launched this campaign under the slogan “Let's Defend Democracy – Not with Silence, But with Resistance”, expressing concern that with the erosion of democratic rights, the hard-won labour rights achieved through years of struggle are now at risk of being taken away.
For the operation of this campaign, responsibilities have been assigned as follows:
- Koshi Province: Vice President Bidur Karki and Secretary Belimaya Ghale
- Madhesh Province: Vice President Manju Thapa and Secretary Hari Karki
- Bagmati Province: Vice President Jitendra Shrestha, Secretaries Mahendra Lal Shrestha and Smriti Lama
- Gandaki Province: Vice President Sita Lama and Secretary Krishna KC
- Lumbini Province: Vice President Kamal Gautam and Secretary Taranidhi Pant
- Karnali Province: General Secretary Laxman Sharma and Secretary Bijaya Khadka
