“The four students unions affiliated to UCPN (Maoist), Nepali Congress, CPN-UML and CPN-Maoist reached to a decision to postpone the June 6’s election protesting the admission of fake students,” said Poudel, adding, “We will formally take the decision on the postponement of elections after calling a meeting of TU Executive Committee today itself.”
Poudel further stated that TU would announce new date of FSU polls only if student unions come up with joint proposal for the election in near future.
