Week. RSS reports from Chitwan.
At a news conference organised by the Chitwan branch of the Reporters' Club at Bharatpur Airport on Thursday, Thapa said the President and the Chairman of the Interim Election Council should take initiatives to hold the roundtable conference as it was the only alternative to bring the agitating parties including the CPN-Maoist led by Mohan Baidhya to election.
