“The newspaper will not hit the newsstand from tomorrow [Wednesday],” Neupane added.



The Maoists launched the newspaper at the latter phase of the insurgency.



Slain journalist Krishna Sen was the editor of the newspaper.



According to sources, Chairman Pushpa Kamal Dahal stopped pumping money into the publication house for some “unknown reasons.” Journalists have not received their salaries for the last three months.
