POKHARA, July 3: Chairman of CPN-Maoist Mohan Baidya said the second Constituent Assembly (CA) elections scheduled for November 19 was not in the interest of the country and the people.



Talking to journalists at a press conference organized by the party here Wednesday after the completion of the extended meeting of his party, Baidya said the extended meeting had been unanimous to boycott the CA elections.



He claimed that his party concluded to boycott the elections after seeing no possibility to write a new constitution through the second CA elections.



The meeting concluded that earlier 11-point agreement, amendment of 25 clauses of the Interim Constitution 2007 through ordinance on removing difficulties by the President were guided by the four-party ´syndicate´ and that the parties were undemocratic, unconstitutional and wrong, said Baidya.



Baiddya stressed on the need of resolving current political impasse through a roundtable conference among the political parties and other stakeholders.



He also objected the ongoing election process he said was moving ahead ignoring his party´s demand to constitute a unity government from within the political parties.



Responding to media query, Baidya ruled out any possibility of his party’s unification with the mother party, Unified CPN (Maoist).
