Failure to implement House directives will lead to conflict: Dr Bhattarai

Kathmandu, November 27- Senior Maoist leader Dr Baburam Bhattarai Tuesday said that the country might see another conflict if the government failed to implement the parliament’s directives, on announcing republican order and adopting a voting system based on proportional representation.

“If the Nepali Congress-led government fails to implement the parliament’s directives another conflict may erupt in the country,” he said, adding, “However, it will not be an armed conflict.”

Bhattarai also declared that his party would not join the constituent assembly elections unless monarchy got abolished. He claimed that conspiracies were being hatched in the dark rooms of Narayanhiti Palace to scuffle CA polls.

The Maoist no. 2 was speaking at a programme organised by Nepal Dalit Liberation Front (Unified) in Kathmandu.

During a meeting earlier today, Bhattarai had directed the leaders of various sister organisations of the party to launch pressure campaigns to ensure implementation of the proposals on republic and proportional voting system. nepalnews.com mk Nov 27 07
