Nepal-Khanal faction calls CC meeting Friday



KATHMANDU: CPN-UML’s Madhav Kumar Nepal-Jhalanath Khanal faction has called a meeting of the Central Committee (CC) for 11 am Friday.

“A meeting has been called to discuss with the leaders of our party who are available in Kathmandu,” Yubaraj Gyawali said.

Gyawali said that the meeting will discuss how to move forward. “The party is in a dilemma now. The agenda of the discussion is how to maintain the party unity and move forward in the days ahead, said Gyawali.

Earlier, Madhav Nepal’s party leaders and lawmakers did not attend the CC meeting and the parliamentary party (PP) meeting convened by Chairman KP Sharma Oli in Baluwatar.

The Nepal-Khanal faction has been carrying out parallel activities saying that Oli has tried to run the party unilaterally after he unilaterally nominated central members, and took away responsibility of the leaders.

The party, which has been holding activities including the gathering of national cadres and meetings of people’s organizations, is now preparing to form parallel organizations in districts as well.

Meanwhile, a meeting of the Oli-affiliated Central Committee held in Baluwatar on Monday decided to ask four leaders, including senior leader Nepal, for their activities against the party’s interests. Leaders are preparing to respond to the clarification.
