CHAIRMA READY




CHAIRMAN PRACHANDA PREPARED TO FACE EXTENDED
CENTRAL COMMITTEE MEET ON ORGANIZATION DISPUTE SAYS SPOKESMAN SAPKOTA

Kathmandu, 6 July: Spokesperson of the UCPN-Maoist Agni Prasad Sapkota has said that the people themselves would boycott those opposing and talking of boycotting the Constituent Assembly (CA) elections slated for November 19 this year.

Speaking in the regular spokesperson-media interface held at the party central office at Parisdanda today, he said special initiatives would be taken for having the participation of the political parties and groups opposing the CA election through talks and dialogue.

The meeting of the High Level Political Committee (HLPC) convened today also took a concrete decision to that effect, he added.

Stating that the CPN – Maoist could not boycott the election, the UCPN-Maoist spokesman said that since all the parties were one on the issue of federalism with identity, constitution with federalism and constitution through the Constituent Assembly, those opposing the election would have no relevance.

He said that his party was ready to hold discussions on expansion of the HLPC and the reconstitution of the Council of Ministers, among others, for creating an environment for polls, but ruled out any compromise regarding the annulment of the 11-point agreement signed on March 14 and the 25-point presidential decree regarding removal of the constitutional obstacles for holding the CA.

Spokesman Sapkota said that the extended meeting of the party's Central Committee scheduled for coming July 19 would settle the issue related to the organizational structure.

"Party chairman Pushpa Kamal Dahal 'Prachanda' has already prepared the preliminary draft of the organizational report to be presented in the extended meeting. This preamble of the document would be further enriched by the joint meeting of the different committees and bodies of the party organization to be held on July 9 which would be then tabled in the extended meeting for its ratification. In this way, the problem seen within the party would be resolved," he said.

UCPN-Maoist Vice chairman has not given up his membership of the party but only quit his post as Vice-chairman, said Spokesperson Sapkota. The extended meeting of the party would take tangible decision in this regard, he added.

Meanwhile, leader Sapkota said it was unfair to arbitrarily spend the national budget in the name of development at the end of the fiscal year and urged the government to discourage such activities, immediately.

Sapkota stressed on not bringing the populist programmes through the budget for the government has been just formed for the election purpose.
