Top leaders of eight political parties have intensified the discussions on crucial political issues. The meeting of eight political parties that was ended inconclusively on Saturday had reached agreement to carry out the common decision to end existing political deadlock and set the date to Constituent Assembly (CA) polls through Monday’s meeting.
The meeting which started at 4.00 pm at Prime Minister Girija Pradad Koirala’s official residence Baluwatar is expected to discuss on the issues like re-assessment of the proposal of Election Constituency Delineation Commission (ECDC), resolving the parliamentary impasse and solving the petroleum crisis, among others.
According to a leader, meeting will also discuss on school strikes, demands of civil servants, fate of Melamchi drinking water project and demands raised by other groups.
The eight parties had deferred the meeting for discussion after they failed to reach any consensus on Saturday. Saturday’s meeting could not reach any consensus after the CPN-UML insisted on proportional electorate system for the CA polls.
The PM had held a meeting with NC-D acting chairman Gopal Man Shrestha Monday morning. They are learnt to have agreed to present one voice in the meeting.
Similarly, the PM also made consultation with Narayan Man Bijukche, chairman of Nepal Workers’ and Peasants’ Party (NWPP). The PM is learnt to have told Bijukche that a new date for the CA polls would be announced after laws regarding the CA polls were passed by the Interim Legislature-Parliament.
