UCPN (M) to make last-ditch effort to revive Constituent Assembly

A meeting of the office bearers of the ruling UCPN (Maoist) has decided to make last-ditch effort to convince opposition parties to agree to reinstate the Constituent Assembly.

Party Spokesperson Agni Sapkota said that UCPN (M) was open on going for fresh elections, but would prefer to resolve the current political deadlock by reinstating the dissolved constitution-making body.

He reiterated that if parties want to go for polls, such polls should be held without a change of guard in the government. Reinstating the CA is the best way to safeguard the achievements of the People's Movement and fulfill the public's aspirations, Sapkota told medipersons. nepalnews.com
