Interim constitution to be finalized by mid-October: UML General Secy.
Amid widening differences between the ruling seven party alliance and the Maoists on key political issues, CPN-UML General Secretary Madhav Kumar Nepal has said that the process to finalise the interim constitution should be completed in all respects by mid-October to pave way for elections to the constituent assembly.
Speaking at an interaction organised by Bagmati Special Bureau of the fraternal organization of the party, All Nepal National Free Students Union (ANNFSU), Nepal said it was crucial to complete all the processes regarding the formation of interim constitution by mid-October to hold the election of the constituent assembly by March or April.
He added that the delay would only give an opportunity to the royalists to become more active.
He said he was taking up the issue of naming a new Chief Election Commissioner who would streamline the election process.
He added that eight-party joint meeting would be held to resolve differences and finalise the interim constitution.
Nepal appealed the ANNFSU to strictly follow the ideological stand on people’s republican set-up. nepalnews.com pb Sep 13 06
