KATHMANDU: The meeting of the left alliance's Party Unification Coordination Committee (PUCC) today has yielded the execution of parties' unification to CPN-UML Chairman KP Sharma Oli and CPN Maoist Centre Chair Pushpa Kamal Dahal. The PUCC members urged both the top leaders to resolve issues pertaining to the unification of both the parties, in the meeting held at Prime Minister Oli's official residence in Baluwatar, Kathmandu. Today's meeting, which deliberated on the reports submitted by the taskforces formed to settle outstanding issues, remained inconclusive. However, CPN MC leader Narayan Kaji Shrestha said that the next meeting would decide the date for party unification. Senior leaders from both the parties who are also members of the committee attended the meeting apart from UML's senior leader Jhalanath Khanal. Present in the meeting were leaders Ishwor Pokharel, Ram Bahadur Thapa, Madhav Kumar Nepal, KP Sharma Oli, Pushpa Kamal Dahal and Narayan Kaji Shrestha. On Monday, UML Chair KP Sharma Oli and CPN MC Chair Pushpa Kamal Dahal held one-on-one meeting that dwelt on unresolved issues, such as equal representation for both the parties in the unified party structures and incorporation of the spirit of ‘people’s war’ in the unified party’s document and election symbol, but could not reach understanding. In the previous PUCC meeting held on April 5, two taskforces led by UML leader Madhav Kumar Nepal and CPN MC leader Ram Bahadur Thapa had suggested that the formal unification be announced on April 22, coinciding with the birth anniversary of late Russian communist leader Vladimir Lenin. But leaders from both the parties said the circumstances suggested unification on April 22 was not possible since major differences had not been sorted out.
