Kathmandu, Nepal: Prime Minister Pushpa Kamal Dahal and CPN-UML Chairman KP Sharma Oli held a meeting to discuss about the current political deadlock of the country.
In a meeting held at CPN Maoist Center vice chairman Narayan Kaji Shrestha's residence at Harisiddhi, Lalitpur on Friday, two communist leaders-Dahal, chairman of the CPN Maoist Center, and Oli discussed on ranges of issues including the recent political deadlock of the country.
As the meeting is held in the mean time when there is a speculation that the main opposition party CPN UML would extend support to the existing CPN Maoist Center led government, the meeting is taken meaningfully in the political sector.
There is also a rumor that the Nepali Congress, the largest party in the parliament, would withdraw support to the incumbent Dahal led government, thanks to the differences among the government allies on most of the issues related to the governance.
Though the meeting has sparked speculations, it is said that the two leaders had discussed over the issue of the constitution amendment and holding elections as envisaged by the constitution but not change of the government.
During the meeting, Prime Minister Dahal had urged the UML chairman Oli to support to passage the constitution amendment bill to create an environment conducive for holding elections.
Responding to the concerns of Prime Minister Dahal, UML chairman Oli urged the Prime Minister to concentrate to hold local level elections rather than constitution amendment claiming that constitution amendment is not necessary for the country.
