The central committee meeting of Communist Party of Nepal (United Marxist Leninist) scheduled for Wednesday would forward a concept of broader alliance that can accommodate all democratic forces in the country.

Annapurna Post quoted acting General Secretary of the party, Amrit Kumar Bohara, as saying that the proposed plan would be debated during the meeting on Wednesday. He said that there was the need of broader alliance among the democratic forces to heighten the present movement for restoration of democracy and human rights.

However, such alliance would not include the Maoist rebels, but all other professional organizations and trade unions who have been participating in the present movement.

Parties, human rights activists and professional bodies have been calling on the mainstream political parties to widen the horizon of present movement by adding more democratic forces into their alliance to intensify the stir. The parties so far have been able to organize only a seven-party alliance.
