Oli, Dahal meet to discuss talks with UDMF

KATHMANDU: Prime Minister KP Sharma Oli and UCPN-Maoist Chairman Pushpa Kamal Dahal held a meeting on Monday to discuss the ongoing talks with the agitating United Democratic Madhesi Front (UDMF).

The two key leaders of the ruling coalition discussed continuing the talks with the protesting Madhesi Front and taking it to a logical conclusion, the PM's press advisor Pramod Dahal told the Rastriya Samachar Samiti.

They also discussed possible alternatives regarding revision on demarcation of federal units, which the UDMF could also agree with, according to Dahal.

The meeting was held at the PM's official residence, Baluwatar.

The ruling coalition on Sunday had formed a new talks team under the leadership of Dahal.
