Maoists call off Dolakha strike

CPN-Maoists have cancelled the indefinite strike they announced in Dolakha demanding for the immediate release of their cadres involved in the thrashing of the Dolakha Chief District Officer.

The district committee of the party announced that it has taken back the indefinite strike by issuing a release Wednesday night, following which, the deadlock that gripped the district for the past one week has ended.

Meanwhile, the multilateral meeting that was held Wednesday to resolve the difficult situation that emerged after the Maoist activists vandalised the District Administration Office and manhandled the CDO has ended inconclusively after no agreement was reached on the release of the Maoist activists who were arrested following the incident. nepalnews.com ag Aug 02 07
