Major parties agree to extend CA term by six months; form national
consensus government as per 7-point deal

The meeting of the three major parties – UCPN (Maoist), Nepali
Congress (NC) and CPN (UML) – and United Democratic Madhesi Front
(UDMF) concluded Tuesday with an agreement to extend the term of the
Constituent Assembly by six more months.

In the meeting held at the Ministry of Peace and Reconstruction in
Singha Durbar, the major political parties signed a six-point
understanding on CA term extension, immediate formation of a national
consensus government and power-sharing, among others.

The major parties inked the understanding after the four-member
taskforce they had formed on Sunday to prepare a detailed time-bound
calendar within a week submitted a proposal for the six-month term
extension of CA.

With the Supreme Court's ruling that the term of the Constituent
Assembly can be extended only once, the meeting of the taskforce of
the major parties had on Monday agreed on the government's proposal to
extend the CA term by six months. The taskforce also agreed to ask the
top leadership of the major parties to initiate the process of forming
a national consensus government as envisaged in the seven-point
understanding signed by major parties on November 1.

With the understanding, the extension of CA is likely to happen this afternoon.

The House session to vote on the 11th constitution amendment bill for
six-month extension of CA has been called today, a day before the CA's
term expires.

The current tenure of the CA expires on November 30.
