KATHMANDU: Provincial lawmakers of Lumbini Pradesh are knocking the door of the Election Commission (EC) today demanding scrapping of the registration of the CPN (Maoist Center).

Lawmakers including Dinesh Panthi who were, earlier, terminated by the Maoist Center are lodging a complaint at the Commission to this effect.

According to sources, former Maoist Center leaders including Lil Bahadur Thapa, Dinesh Panthi will lodge an application at 12:30 pm.

The Maoist Center had relieved them of their posts as lawmakers after they defected to the ruling CPN-UML following dissolution of the Nepal Communist Party (NCP) on March 7, 2021 by the Supreme Court.
