Reinstatement Of Dissolved CA Possible Says NC President
By KTM Metro Reporter
August 6, 2012: speaking at the event held by the Association of pro-Maoist Revolutionary Journalists in Butwal, Prime Minister Dr. Baburam Bhattarai said that the NC and the CPN-UML have been standing in the way to building a political consensus, as they refused to talk to the coalition government of the UCPN-Maoist and UDMF. The prime minister further said that he would quit the office immediately after the all-party consensus was built. Prime Minister Dr. Baburam Bhattarai also said that Head of State President Dr. Ram Baran Yadav as the custodian of the constitution would not make any unconstitutional move.
Speaking to reporters at his Maharajgunj residence today, President of NC Sushil Koirala said that his party was ready for any option including the reinstatement of the dissolved CA provided his party would let lead a unity government. Mr. Koirala promised to use any possible means including the street protest to topple the Bhattarai government.
The Bhattarai-government-appointed Chief Secretary Lilamani Poudel took the office after the retirement of Chief Secretary Madhav Ghimire today. The coalition government of UCPN-Maoist and UDMF had appointed Poudel to the office of chief secretary on July 29 that had prompted five secretaries to quit their offices protesting the government appointing their junior to the top civil administration office passing over them. They even charged the government of breaching the tradition of appointing senior secretary to the chief secretary. (Source of the news items is nepalnews.com)
Thanks to the cadres of Youth Association Nepal (YAN) affiliated to the CPN-UML, vehicles had been off the Kathmandu streets for four hours starting from 6:00 AM to 10 AM today again. Such shutdown of vehicular traffic might serve to preserve the environment but common folks cannot move from one place to another for work, for shopping, for going to schools and even to hospitals. Is that what the CPN-UML for? This is the strategy of the CPN-UML to topple the current government. Certainly, some people have already fought back the YAN cadres. More fight-backs would come soon.
