Nepal Politics takes a Nose Dive; NC, UML challenge Maoists
A day after the Unified Maoists’ Party demanded resignation from the Prime Minister Madhav Kumar Nepal to pave way for the formation of the Maoists’ Party led National Government, the 15 party comprising the ruling coalition meet out rightly rebuked the Maoists’ demand.
The coalition has rather challenged the Maoists’ party to show its majority in the Parliament and form a government on their own if they can.
The meeting was convened by the Nepali Congress party, where the UML leaders were mysteriously missing.
Prior to the 15 Party meeting, the NC and the United Marxist Leninists’ leaders held a meeting at the UML headquarters in Balkhu,
The UML and the NC leaders concluded that the Maoists’ Street demand to replace the current government was an undemocratic stipulation.
The Maoists’ Party has freshly begun demanding resignation of Prime Minister Madhav Kumar
Sounds interesting.
Earlier, the party was demanding correction in the unconstitutional steps of the President while the latter reinstated Maoists’ government sacked Army Chief Rukmangad Katawal, May 3, 2009 late evening.
Making his views clear at the meeting the Nepali Congress leader of the constituent assembly Mr. Ram Chandra Poudel said that no agreement would be reached with the Maoists’ Party concerning their demands for resignation of the Prime Minister and as far as the move of the president was concerned.
He also said that the Maoists must first end the current political deadlock to open talks over other issues.
Ishwor Pokharel, the UML General Secretary also criticized the Maoists for exhibiting undemocratic behavior.
The NC and UML meet also concluded that the Maoists’ demand for resignation of the PM was also against the 12-Points Agreement.
