The National Federation Party has successfully re-elected its office bearers unopposed during its Annual General Meeting (AGM) today at the Nadroga Sangam School in Malaqereqere, Sigatoka. Parmod Chand has been re-elected as President, with Devendra Naidu, Kamala Lajendra, Ratu Esava Nabuta, Peter Saunivalu, Waisale Kanavu, and Vijay Rajnesh Prasad serving as Vice Presidents. Chandu Lodhia will remain as Treasurer, while Kamal Iyer continues as General Secretary and Bimal Prasad as Assistant General Secretary.
In his address to a sizable audience, Chand expressed his appreciation for the ongoing support, emphasizing that the party’s 61 years of existence reflects its steadfast principles and commitment to the nation’s interests. He stated, “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.”
Chand also highlighted the historical importance of the AGM’s location, as the party had not met in Sigatoka for 25 years. He noted, “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.” The Annual General Meeting and Convention concluded yesterday.
