Rekha not interested in politics

Actress Rekha Thapa denies her active involvement in politics now citing it's not appropriate time for the same. It's her another sensational whim. Contrary to what she said recently, she established a good tie with Unified CPN (M) Chair Prachanda in the beginning and even went to the extent of addressing a mass gathering at Biratnagar during the Maoists' general shutdown after the May Day celebration. Now is not suitable time to talk about politics, states Rekha. What an irony!

At Biratnagar function of Pyramid College of which she is brand ambassador, Rekha said, "I'm a professional artist so I won't carry any party's flag." While making it clear that she is not a Maoist cadre, Rekha added she has every rights like other citizens to like or dislike plans and programmes of a political party. Rekha consented attending a Maoist mass meeting as UCPN (M) leaders, unlike other political leaders, called on her for the function with respect the first time.
While emphasizing the need of film crew's representation in the nation's mainstream politics, Rekha expressed her regret over non-participation of the artists in the Constituent Assembly (CA) by any party, however.
