Communist Party of Nepal Yet to Formally Comment on Judicial Nexus and Police Chief Change

Kathmandu. A nexus between middlemen Inam Sapkota and Supreme Court justices, and the police chief change case, the Nepal Communist Party (NCP) has not yet made a formal statement. The NCP has not called an internal meeting to discuss the latest political developments since October 23. Leader Devendra Poudel said that internal discussions are ongoing, but no formal meeting has been scheduled. 'Informal internal discussions might be happening regarding the latest developments. I am currently in the district for party work. I am not aware of any party meetings, perhaps one will be held,' Poudel said. Another leader, Ramkumar Bhattarai, said that internal discussions are underway regarding calling a meeting. He said, 'A central coordination committee meeting might be held tomorrow or the day after.' Bhattarai clarified that the government's decision to change the Inspector General of Police is a mixture of the decisions made by Lokendra Bahadur Chand's government in 2053 BS and Prachanda's government in 2064 BS. 'The current government's decision is a mixture of the decision of Lokendra Bahadur Chand's government in 2053 BS and Prachanda's government's decision in 2064 BS,' he said. The NCP, which has announced a national awareness campaign, is preparing to expand it extensively at the district and local levels after Tihar. Leaders currently active in provincial-level internal training and expanded meetings have stated this.
