RPP
raps Maoists for breaking truce
Post Report
KATHMANDU, Nov 28 -
Rastriya Prajantantra Party (RPP) today came down heavily on the Maoist terrorists for
breaking the cease-fire unilaterally by launching attacks across the country which claimed
lives of dozens of people.
An emergency meeting
called by the RPP, chaired by the Party president, Surya Bahadur Thapa urged the Maoists
to continue the talks.
The Maoists have
been killing innocent civilians in the name of people’s war, said the release, issued
by the party today.
The release said
that the recent declaration of emergency by the government is within the constitutional
limits. However, press release also stated, "Emergency should not infringe upon the
democratic rights and terrorists must be punished,".
The meeting also
decided not to comment immediately regarding the recent move adopted by the government.
The release said that the party needs little more time to evaluate on the recent
government’s move.
RPP has also urged
the ruling party, Nepali Congress to change their attitude if it seriously wants to bring
the situation back to normal.
The move cannot be
successful until and unless there is support from other political parties, said the press
release.
