President Dr Ram Baran Yadav has already given a deadline of Aug 21 to form a national consensus government.
At the meeting, caretaker Prime Minister and CPN-UML Chairman Jhala Nath Khanal clarified that he stepped down for the implementation of five-point deal that pave the way to extend the Constituent Assembly deadline by three months. He added that the UPCN (Maoist) should be responsible for the implementation of other pacts.
Also on the occasion, Maoist Chairman Pushpa Kamal Dahal reportedly expressed his confidence that the peace and constitution-drafting processes will make tangible progress prior to Aug 31 deadline of CA.
Likewise, Nepali Congress President Sushil Koirala urged the Maoist to become serious towrds the twin tasks of peace process and statute drafting.
Similarly, Constituent Assembly Chairman Subash Chandra Nembang noted that two of the five points--extending the CA tenure and PM's resignation--have been implemented but the other issues including new constitution drafting, peace process, national consensus government and Madhesis participation in Nepal Army are yet to be implemented.
