An informal meeting of the majority secretariat members held at CPN (Maoist) headquarters in Dhumbarahi on Friday decided to meet Prime Minister on Saturday and request for a meeting, said spokesperson Narayan Kaji Shrestha.
During meeting, Prachanda briefed leaders of his party about his meeting with another Chairman and Prime Minister KP Sharma Oli. Spokesperson Shrestha informed that Oli had called a meeting without his consent and warned that it would be a point of split in party.
Shrestha said that Prachanda convened informal meeting of secretariat with the agreement of Oli to preserve party unity even though executive chairman has right to convene meeting.
