KATHMANDU, April 27: It has been 14 years since Nepal embarked on a historic transition to switch to a federal democratic republic system. Achievements were possible as a result of people's prolonged and tremendous struggle.
A week-long 8th General Convention of the CPN (Maoist Centre) has concluded, selecting 236 Central Committee (CC) members and endorsing a political document tabled by party Chairman Pushpa Kamal Dahal ‘Prachanda’.
The document says the Millennium Challenge Corporation (MCC) compact will be approved only after amendments and only on the basis of broad political consensus.
The closed session of the party endorsed the names proposed by Prachanda. The size of the Central Committee is 299 and Prachanda will nominate the rest of the members.
