Narayan Man Bijukchhe (Rohit) of the Nepal Workers and Peasants Party (NWPP) disclosed that henceforth his party would not support the UML.

In a telephone conversation with this reporter, he explained the reasons for that in the following fashion.

Recently he said his party had put forth three demands to the UML. They were, (1) not to accept their MP from Dailekh into the UML (2) to have a written commitment that no Left party should be willfully split and (3) for the UML to support their candidate in Upper House elections.

Rohit disclosed that while the UML agreed on the third demand they did not accept his first two proposals.
