Kathmandu, April 11: The main opposition CPN (UML) has decided not to back the new proposal on constitution amendment to be floated by the government stating the UML was not consulted regarding the fresh move.
A meeting of the UML’s standing committee held under the chair of party’s acting chairman Bamdev Gautam took such decision arguing that UML could not support the move which is against the constitution and local level polls or the national interests, UML’s publicity department chief Yogesh Bhattarai said.
The UML’s statement has come just after the Prime Minister announced to bring a fresh proposal on constitution amendment which would be acceptable to the UML and the agitating United Democratic Madhesi Front (UDMF).
The UML has also said that no consensus was forged between the UML and the ruling parties as claimed by the government.
Similarly, the meeting has formed a taskforce under the leadership of Gautam to settle the disputes seen in party’s Kathmandu District Committee. Leaders Jhalanath Khanal, Madhav Kumar Nepal, Ashta Laxmi Shakya and Ishwar Pokharel are the members in the taskforce. RSS
