KATHMANDU: Prime Minister KP Oli and Nepal Communist Party (NCP) Executive Chairman Pushpa Kamal Dahal have held talks at Baluwatar after a six-day-long hiatus on Tuesday.

However, it has not yet been revealed what they discussed in the meeting.

Dahal had reached Baluwatar to meet Prime Minister Oli immediately after he returned from Chitwan.

The Standing Committee (SC) meeting of the NCP was postponed for time and again after the one-on-one meeting between Dahal and Oli ended inconclusively.

Earlier, two heavyweights had one-on-one meetings for hours on Sunday, Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday but did not reach any conclusions.

The SC meeting slated for July 10 had been postponed for a week stating that the whole party rank and file had to participate in rescue and relief operations for flood victims.

The two-hour-long meeting held at the Prime Minister’s official residence in Baluwatar on July 8 could not make any headway as both the leaders stuck to their respective stance with no signs of budging.

The intra-party feud of the ruling NCP has deepened after most of the Standing Committee members demanded resignation of Prime Minister Oli from both of his posts.

Senior leader Nepal and his aides are disappointed as they have not been involved in the talks. It is learned that NCP Spokesperson Narayan Kaji Shrestha, too, is dissatisfied with the ‘one-on-one’ dialogue between the NCP top guns.

The party leadership is currently under pressure to keep the party intact since around 53 central committee members of the party has already initiated a signature campaign to convene the party’s central committee meeting.

They have argued that the meeting of the 441-member central committee will be more impactful than the 45-member Standing Committee.

According to the NCP statute, the leadership will have to call the meeting of the central committee if 25 percent, i.e., 110 members signed the document.
