Chairman Vaidhya hinted at the foreign hands on breaking the talks .
Secretary of CPN-Maoist Dev Gurung said that the four-party political mechanism did not want his party to participate in the elections, they broke the talks; so, the 33-party front has no alternative but to launch protests.
Leaders of the four-party political mechanism said that they were surprised to see the 33-party front going back to its demands and taking firm stand on not stepping back from their demands. They said that the 33-party front including the CPN-Maoist did not want to participate in the elections rather want to disrupt it. They also have said that they keep the door always opened for talks if the 33-party front including the CPN-Maoist come with the clear intention of taking part in the elections.
