KATHMANDU, June 7: The High-level Political Committee (HLPC) is to recommend the Government to draft electoral laws as per the norms and spirit of the 11-point agreement and the 25-point order to remove difficulties.



The meeting of the Committee held at its New Baneswor Office on Friday discussed about drafting the election laws as per the 11-point political agreement reached among the political parties and we have almost reached to an agreement, said UML Chairman Jhalanath Khanal, who is also the Coordinator of the Committee.

"We will now hold a discussion with the Chairman of the Council of Ministers and come up with a result within a day or two", said Khanal.



The meeting had begun at 11:00 am today. And many one-to-one and group meetings were held in between.



However, the meeting had to be postponed to meet again after holding a discussion with Chairman of the Council of Ministers Khil Raj Regmi. Accordingly, they will meet Chairman Regmi tomorrow.



Likewise, the meeting also urged the Government to address the just demands of the former Kamlaris and not repeat the mistake of suppressing a peaceful protest programme. The HLPC has also urged the Government to make necessary arrangement for the medical treatment of those injured in the movement, said UML leader Raghuji Pant.
