The National Federation Party has re-elected its office bearers without opposition during its Annual General Meeting (AGM) held today at the Nadroga Sangam School in Sigatoka. Parmod Chand has been re-elected as President, supported by Vice Presidents Devendra Naidu, Kamala Lajendra, Ratu Esava Nabuta, Peter Saunivalu, Waisale Kanavu, and Vijay Rajnesh Prasad.
Chandu Lodhia will remain as Treasurer, with Kamal Iyer serving as General Secretary and Bimal Prasad as Assistant General Secretary. In his address to a large audience, Chand expressed his appreciation for the continued support, highlighting that the party’s resilience over its 61-year history is a reflection of its core principles and commitment to the national interest.
“The fact that the NFP is 61 years old speaks volumes about the party’s values. We have never abandoned our principles for political expediency. Our achievements are monumental and will continue for decades,” he stated.
Chand also noted the historical importance of the meeting’s location, as it is the first time in 25 years that the party has convened in Sigatoka. “We are meeting here in Sigatoka after 25 years. The last time we met here was at the nearby Cuvu College hall in 1999, right after a major political defeat. Yet, the NFP rose from the ashes, as it always has,” he remarked.
The AGM and Convention concluded yesterday.
