Prachanda asks for three months to fulfil Nepali Congress demands
Kathmandu, Jan 2 : Nepal Prime Minister Prachanda has expressed his willingness to fulfill the nine-point demands of the Nepali Congress (NC) in three months.

A meeting of the High-Level Political Coordination Committee (HLPCC) held at the PM''s official residence had suggested Prachanda to address the Nepali Congress demands including the return of the seized property to the rightful owners.

Meanwhile, the meeting reached an agreement to recommend the names of the representatives of different parties who will participate in different constitutional commissions within two days to the Prime Minister.
It also decided to give full shape to the high-level Scientific Land Reforms Commission.
According to Nepalnews, UML leader Surendra Pandey said, "We asked him that he should give time-bound commitment as demanded by Nepali Congress and he agreed to give three months."
Pandey added that Prachanda also asked the ruling partners to provide their nominees by Friday for the six commissions and to fill vacant positions in some constitutional bodies. (ANI)
