CPN-M miffed by int'l support to CJ-led govt

The Mohan Baidya-led CPN-Maoist has taken exception to the support expressed by the international community to the Chief Justice-led interim election government.

In a press statement, CPN-M vice chairman and the party's foreign department chief C.P Gajurel asked the foreign governments and their envoys based in Nepal to reconsider the support they have lent to the new government, arguing that the agreement signed by the four parties - UCPN (Maoist), Nepali Congress, CPN-UML and Madhesi Front - is against the interest of Nepal and Nepalis.

Meanwhile, CPN-M chief Baidya has claimed that his party will not allow the four parties to enter the villages to campaign for the elections. "We will break their legs if they enter the villages" he warned while addressing a gathering organised by the party in Kavre on Monday.

Baidya said there is no possibility of electoral alliance with the UCPN (Maoist), mentioning that leaders of the UCPN (Maoist) telephoned him and proposed such alliance. nepalnews.com
