Constitution Assembly dissolved, fresh election in November
The
Constituent Assembly (CA) was dissolved
on May 27, without delivering the
new constitution after the parties
failed to reach consensus on the
restructuring of the state, reports
Nepal News. The cabinet meeting
declared fresh election of the Constituent
Assembly on 22 November 2012. Ministers
from the Communist Party of Nepal-
Unified Marxist Leninist (CPN-UML)
and fringe parties walked out of
the cabinet meeting opposing Prime
Minister Baburam Bhattarai's proposal
to hold fresh election.
Meanwhile,
Nepali Congress (NC), CPN- UML,
broader Madheshi Front and some
fringe parties have rejected the
government decision to hold fresh
election of the Constituent Assembly
on 22 November 2012.
