CPN-UML holding Secretariat meeting today



KATHMANDU: The ruling CPN-UML is holding a meeting of its Secretariat today.

The meeting is scheduled to be held at the party’s central office in Chyasal at 5 pm.

While the agenda for the meeting has not been disclosed, Prime Minister KP Oli is expected to brief the party about the recent political developments, including the arrest of former Home Minister Rabi Lamichhane, who is also the Chairman of the Rastriya Swatantra Party (RSP).

This will be the UML’s first secretarial meeting since Rabi’s arrest, which occurred on Friday in Kathmandu before he was taken to Pokhara, Kaski by police.

Previously, a Secretarial meeting was held on October 10 at the party office in Chyasal, where the decision was made to construct a new central office building for the party.

The following day, UML laid the foundation stone for the office on land donated by businessman Min Bahadur Gurung, a move that has faced significant criticism.

Additionally, the UML has called on the party to prepare for the local level by-elections scheduled for December 1.
