Maoist Decision for Promulgation instead of Extension

The Unified CPN-Maoist has decided to press for the promulgation of new constitution by May 27th instead of seeking the term extension of the Constituent Assembly. A Standing Committee meeting of the UCPN- Maoist held today decided to make maximum efforts for consensus for the promulgation of constitution by the deadline. The ruling party has also decided to bring other parties into confidence in its proposal to carve out 11 provinces in the new federal set-up.
