Unified CPN (Maoist) has urged various fringe parties represented in the Constituent Assembly (CA) to pressure the Prime Minister to step down, Tuesday.

Maoist leaders apprised the fringe parties of the three-point agreement among UCPN (Maoist), CPN (UML) and Nepali Congress (NC) reached Friday night and urged them to help create an environment for the PM's resignation, at a meeting held at Maoist parliamentary party office, Singha Durbar Tuesday.

Maoist chairman Pushpa Kamal Dahal apprised the fringe parties of both the written and the verbal agreements among parties claiming there had been an agreement to have the PM resign within five days.

UCPN (Maoist) sought support of the fringe parties after the three largest parties in the CA started describing Friday night's agreement in their own ways.

 Speaking to reporters after the meeting, Maoist vice chairman Narayan Kaji Shrestha warned of dire consequences if the PM does not resign within two days.

Fringe party leaders present at the meeting complained that the agreement had not been clear. The parties urged Maoists to call a meeting including all the parties in the CA to make the agreement clear.

According to CA member Bishwendra Paswan a meeting of all parties in the CA is likely to take place tomorrow at the CA building New Baneshwar, Wednesday. nepalnews.com
