Kathmandu, May 29: A meeting of the three major political parties and agitating Rastriya Janata Party (RJP) held today ended inconclusively.
The meeting of the leaders held in the Prime Minister’s official residence in Baluwatar dwelt on constitution amendment and second phase of local level elections.
In the meeting, Prime Minister Pushpa Kamal Dahal ‘Prachanda’ urged the leaders of the RJP to take part in the second phase of local level elections, pledging to amend the constitution after the election. Two-thirds majority was not possible in the present context.
However, the RJP urged the leaders of the three major political parties to create environment conducive for constitution amendment as their major concern was the constitution amendment rather than other technical issues.
Prime Minister’s political advisor Chakrapani Khanal said that during the meeting, UML seemed positive to forward the constitution amendment bill after the second phase of the local level elections.
During the meeting, Prime Minister Prachanda, NC President Sher Bahadur Deuba, UML Chairman KP Sharma Oli and RJP leader Mahantha Thakur were present. RSS
