Sood continues parleys with top leaders
Newly appointed Indian ambassador to Nepal Rakesh Sood has intensified his parleys with leaders of major political parties.
He met Maoist chairman Prachanda Thursday morning, chiefly discussing the formation of the next government which is likely to be headed by Prachanda himself.
During the meeting held at Prachanda's Nayabazaar residence, the Indian ambassador is said to have reiterated that India would continue its assistance to Nepal irrespective of which party forms the government.
This is the Indian envoy's second meeting with the Maoist chairman in less than a fortnight.
He had met Prime Minister Girija Prasad Koirala Wednesday and discussed the ongoing peace process, formation of new government and India's support in the post-election scenario.
Sood had started parleys with key leaders immediately after he assumed his office in Kathmandu. nepalnews.com mk May 08 08
