The CC on Friday recommended names of chiefs and members in four constitutional bodies to end the long vacuum those bodies. The meeting was not attended by Maoist chairman Pushpa Kamal Dahal, who is a CC member in capacity of the leader of main opposition.
Shrestha also added that the boycott is also for the government’s reluctance to correspond with the United Nations for the term extension of UN Mission in Nepal (UNMIN) and against the ‘conspiracy being hatched to suppress Maoists’ scheduled protest on May 1.’
The parliament was adjourned after the boycott.
