By THT Online

KATHMANDU: Prime Minister Pushpa Kamal Dahal 'Prachanda' today asked the fringe parties to support the government decision to sack chief of army staff Rukangud Katawal. During a meeting with 12 fringe parties at Maoists' parliamentary party office, Prachanda said that the government decided to sack Katawal to establish a civilian supremacy over the NA. He also urged the fringe parties to support the government to face the possible 'vote of confidence' motion likely to be tabled by the major parties in the parliament.
