KATHMANDU: The closed session of the eighth general convention of the CPN-Maoist has been postponed until 5 pm Saturday.
Addressing the closed session earlier, Chairman Pushpa Kamal Dahal ‘Prachanda’ gave the Presidium until 5 pm to forge consensus on the selection of Central Committee members and the office-bearers.
A leader, quoting Chair Prachanda, said the Election Committee would move ahead with the leadership selection process if agreement could not be reached by 5 pm.
