Normal life was affected across the country on the second day of the Bandh (general strike) on February 6. In the capital Kathmandu, normal life was partially crippled with more vehicles plying on the roads and more shops opening. A report from Pokhara said the effort of SF personnel to get shops to open there failed. Vehicular movement on the Hetauda-Pathlaiya road section came to a complete halt due to the road blocks and bombs planted by Maoists at a bridge on the border between Bara and Makawanpur. Similarly, reports from eastern development region said normal life remained crippled in most of the districts of the eastern region. Normal life was also affected in Dhading, Tanahun, Rajbiraj, Nawalparasi, Mahottari, Janakpur and Syangja.

In an interview with The Hindu, Communist Party of Nepal (Maoist) leader Pushpa Kamal Dahal alias Prachanda said that the Maoists were fully committed to multi-party democracy so long as it was under a "new constitutional framework." "If the King says that I was wrong to have done what I did last year, now come on, let us sit across the table, and then he talks of a free and fair election to a constitutional assembly, then we will be ready to take part," Prachanda said. "Our minimum, bottom line is the election of a Constitutional Assembly, that too under international supervision... and whatever the peoples' verdict, we are ready to accept that. This is our bottom line," he added. Prachanda also asked the Indian Government to abandon its "two-pillar theory" and choose the one pillar of multi-party democracy over the "so-called monarchy". The Maoist leader stressed that when elections for the Constitutional Assembly are held the party would accept whatever verdict emerged democratically. "We are convinced people will choose a democratic republic. But if people choose a ceremonial or constitutional monarchy, we are ready to accept that too."
