KATHMANDU, Feb 17: Four small political parties took out a protest rally against the ongoing efforts of the big parties to appoint the Chief Justice the prime minister of the country.



CPN-Maoist, CPN-Unified, Revolutionary Communist Party Nepal and CPN (Maoist) organized the rally which emanated from Shantibatika and converged into a corner gathering at the same place after passing through Bagbazar, Putalisadak, Shahid Gate, and New Road.[break]



Addressing the gathering, CPN-Maoist Spokesperson Pampha Bhushal said the consensus the four parties were trying to forge to appoint the CJ as the Prime Minister was a traitorous scheme and her party would continue to protest until it was thwarted.



Similarly, CPN-Maoist coordinator Matrika Yadav said the decision of the big four parties was unconstitutional because the same person could not lead both the executive and the judiciary.



General Secretary of the Revolutionary Communist Party Mani Thapa warned of launching the third janaandolan if the big parties did not shun the idea of elevating the CJ to the prime minister´s post.
