Govt calls Biplav-led party for talks



KATHMANDU: The government today called the Netra Bikram Chand-led Communist Party of Nepal (CPN) for dialogue.

Making public the cabinet decisions on Thursday, government spokesperson Gokul Baskota said that the government was ready for talks to end violence in the country.

Bastola said arms and weapons cannot be the solution, and Nepal–the land of Lord Buddha– needs peace and prosperity.

“Let’s not go for violence or war,” he said adding Nepali people are not in favor of yet another insurgency.

Likewise, Baskota, who is also the Minister for Communication and Information Technology defended the National Security Policy-2075 saying that the issues of national need, strengthening nationality of the country were incorporated in the policy.

On another issue, Minister Banskota said the government has not received any formal proposal relating to the formation of a new Gurkha Battalion by the British government.
