NOT CONVINCING

It was encouraging to read this report (“Referendum if no accord: PM” 9 April, Page 1) when the new Constituent Assembly is preparing to draft the new constitution within one year. The major political parties should have thought of holding a referendum during first CA itself instead of trying in vain to draft a new constitution without coming to consensus on major issues. This time, let the sovereign people decide.

However, it was disappointing to hear PM Koirala saying that the local election may have to be differed until October/ November due to lack of preparation. If this is so, why do his ministers continue to publicly say that the local polls will be held within six months? And, if they were not sure about holding local polls within six months, why promise this during the election campaign? The people do not seem too happy with this government so far.
