Speaking at an interaction organized by Reporters Club Nepal, Gajurel said a necessary amendment to the Interim Constitution is a must prior to holding the round table meeting. “We don’t accept the round table meeting organized by the four party syndicate,” Gajurel said , adding that the party should be ready to put off the stipulated date of the Constituent Assembly elections if they are really want the election.
He stated that the decision on disputed issues should be made by the two-third majority or unanimously in the round table meeting. He said his party will accept any kinds of decisions made through this procedure. He underlined the need to sort out the thorny issues such as the date of elections and the issue of the new government. He vehemently stated that the election would be a far cry if his party is sidelined.
Referring to the possible confrontations and crisis, he ruled out the elections held unilaterally by the four parties, overlooking his party’s consensus. He further said the election held under military force indicates the state of emergency which will ultimately invalidate the legitimacy of the free and fare elections.
