PDP-Common-ForumThe People’s Democratic Party says Common Forums are necessary. The party also said it stands firm on its pledges of support to the armed forces and the religious bodies.

The statements were issued at a Press Conference last evening.

It comes after Druk Phuensum Tshogpa said common forums should be discontinued because other political parties are politicizing military and religious institutions, in a press conference, on Tuesday.

PDP’s South-Thimphu Constituency candidate, Tandin Wangmo, said common forums are not for the benefit of any political party nor it is for the benefit of candidates. “Common forum is a platform where the people can see, hear and choose from all the four parties present.”

The party also denied the allegations of politicizing religious institutions and armed forces and justified its pledges at the press conference yesterday. “When we talk about serving the armed force and religious community, it doesn’t mean that we are going to go against constitutional mandates nor are we doing this to go against the supreme authority ,” said Tandin Wangmo.

PDP added it stands firm on its pledges to support the armed forces and the religious community. Tandin Wangmo said PDP’s support for armed force and religious community doesn’t mean they are looking into the welfare of all the active serving armed forces or religious community. “We are looking into the welfare of those who have retired…we are looking to revise the pension scheme which has huge difference compared to those of our civil servants.”
