"We want you poll-opposing parties to make election boycott peaceful," Vice-Chairman Gajurel quoted Mr McGoldrick.
At the meeting, the CPN-Maoist reiterated its stand on the CA election is postponed and if it were to hold, people and the party would not accept it. The protest would be peaceful but if the government suppressed, it would invite confrontation.
