The talks between the government and the unions of the government employees on Friday afternoon failed to reach understanding on demands put forward by the latter.

After the failure of the talks held at the Ministry of Peace and Reconstruction, the government employees have warned to intensify their stir against the government from Sunday.

The employees accused the government of not being serious towards their demands. The talks could not progress for more than two hours as both sides stuck to their stands.

The chief government negotiator and Peace and Reconstruction Minister Ram Chandra Poudel urged the agitating employees to withdraw their demonstrations taking into consideration the critical situation of the country and sit for talks.

Poudel said that he would seek assistance from the cabinet and the parliament to address the demands of the employees.

The government employees have been agitating since a month demanding increase in pay scale and passing of the Civil Service Act from the parliament among others.
