Earlier, the government and the UCPN (Maoist) had sent separate and conflicting letters to the UN with regard to the renewal of UNMIN´s mandate after September 15, the deadline of the existing mandate of the UN political mission. [break]
"The letter reflects the spirit of the agreement reached between the government and the UCPN (Maoist) on Monday," said a source close to the prime minister.
On Monday, both the government and the Maoists had agreed to complete the peace process in the next four months, among others.
The UCPN (Maoist), in the letter, has expressed its optimism that it will be possible to take the ongoing peace process to a fruitful conclusion within the next four months. The party sent the letter to UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon through the UNMIN´s office in Kathmandu.
