Kathmandu, December 4
The ruling Nepal Communist Party has directed concerned committees of the party to review the party’s performance in the by-elections held last Saturday and submit the report to the centre in the next three days.
A meeting of the party’s secretariat held in Kathmandu on Wednesday issued the directive, according to the party’s spokesperson, Narayan Kaji Shrestha. The secretariat will meet again on Monday next week to review the reports submitted by the committees, he informs.
During the meeting today, the leaders had expressed concerns over the party’s loss in Bhaktapur and Dharan during the elections on Saturday.
