Congratulating both the King and PM for finalizing the constitution, DNC said, “While our Kingdom is embarking on a new vibrant journey, there are matters that still need attention to ensure an equitable democracy for our people.”

The denial of religion and cultural freedom had led to a religio-politico imbroglio in our beloved country. It seems a partial solution has been achieved by guaranteeing the freedom of religion and cultural rights under the Constitution.

DNC tells, however, the genuine intent and resolve of a new democratic Bhutan should be the release of all political prisoners at once. 

The letter mentioned that it is the fervent prayer that unless the political differences are addressed, including with exiled political leaders, then long-term peace, stability, economic prosperity, and happiness of all Bhutanese would not be achieved.

“We are all firmly committed to strengthen the sovereignty and security of our beloved nation” said DNC appealing Bhutan work together with exiled leaders and international community to resolve all outstanding problems.Bhutan News Service
