A team of CPN-UML leaders met Nepali Congress (NC) President Girija Prasad Koirala and NC (Democratic) President Sher Bahadur Deuba at their residences separately to discuss future strategy to intensify the ongoing democratic movement.

According to UML Central Committee member Subash Nemwang, the delegation discussed with Koirala and Deuba the future strategy and program of peaceful democratic movement for the restoration of complete democracy in the country, according to newspaper reports.

The seven agitation political parties are protesting against the February 1 royal takeover of last year demanding restoration of complete democracy in the country putting an end to what they call “autocratic regime”.

They also discussed about the 12-point pact reached between the seven-party alliance and bringing Maoists to the political mainstream.

Nemwang ruled out the possibility of rift among agitating parties and said Maoists should internalize the pact into practice.

After the finalization of extensive program schedules for next month by the joint movement coordination committee, the UML is going to organize an all-party meeting of top-brass leaders next week for discussion.
