Fringe parties to play spoilsport in poll preps

Some 33 agitating fringe parties led by the CPN-Maoist have once more decided to hinder the poll preparations being held throughout the nation. 

A meeting of the fringe parties held on Tuesday at the central office of the CPN-Maoist, Budhanagar decided to initiate various protest programmes in their bid to obstruct the citizenship issuing campaign and other election related preparations.

The dissident fringe parties also decided not to get themselves registered in the Election Commission (EC) until the annulment of 25-point pact reached among the parties on March 14 to form Chief Justice-led Interim Election Council. 

According to the protest schedule, the parties are said to be organising various campaigns on national sovereignty all over the nation from May 8 to 28. 

Issuing a press statement on behalf of the 33 parties, CPN-Maoist Secretary Dev Gurung termed the government’s citizenship distribution campaign a poly to issue citizenship card to the foreign nationals. 

Leader Gurung informed that they are organising protest programmes in each district to protest the citizenship distribution campaigns. 

The EC has just stared the citizenship distribution campaign throughout the nation aiming to hold the new CA polls by November. 

The parties are also said to be drawing attention of the concerned bodies regarding the purported appointment of former chief secretary at the helm of the Commission for Investigation of Abuse of Authority (CIAA).
