KATHMANDU, July 31: Prime Minister Pushpa Kamal Dahal and the main opposition party CPN-UML Chairperson KP Sharma Oli held a meeting Monday morning at the Prime Minister’s Residence, Baluwatar.

It is said that they discussed removing the obstruction in parliament and the Constitutional Council meeting called by the Prime Minister on Tuesday. Discussions on the recommendation of the Chief Justice were also held.

The current Chief Justice Hari Krishna Karki is retiring on August 4. There is a constitutional provision that a recommendation for the appointment of the Chief Justice should be made one month before retirement. But the Constitutional Council chaired by the Prime Minister has not yet recommended the appointment of the Chief Justice.

CPN-UML has prepared to maintain the obstruction in the meeting of the House of Representatives to be held today at 1PM. The UML said that today's meeting will also be disrupted after the discussion between Prime Minister Dahal and KP Oli on Sunday did not reach any conclusion.
