KATHMANDU: Prime Minister and Co-chair of the Nepal Communist Party (NCP), KP Sharma Oli briefed the party secretariat meeting today about the government's international relations and contemporary issues.

In the meeting held at the Prime Minister's official residence in Baluwatar, the PM informed about the initiatives government has been undertaking for expanding international relations and also about further collaboration in development works including the post-earthquake reconstruction, according to NCP (NCP) Spokesperson Narayan Kaji Shrestha.

The meeting discussed the preparations regarding unification of party's province, district and people's organisation units. The meeting adjourned agreeing to convene the next meeting soon.

The meeting, however, did not discuss the topic of resignation by the party's spokesperson Shrestha, which he is said to have tendered in the secretariat's meeting two weeks back, citing his differences with the party leadership over the issue of Dr Govinda KC's hunger strike.
