The main opposition Unified Communist Party of Nepal (Maoist) (UCPN-M) boycotted the House session on Thursday, saying that there has been a breach in May 28 three-point agreement.
Following the UCPN-M' boycott, the winter session of the Legislature-Parliament has been put off.
As per the House tradition, all the decisions regarding House procedures are taken with the consent of the main opposition party as well. House Speaker Subash Chandra Nemwang announced the postponement immediately after the UCPN-M boycotted the session.
The ruling allies and UCPN-M are still at odds over the prime minister's resignation as both the sides are sticking to their former stances.
While the UCPN-Ms have been demanding Prime Minister Madhav Kumar Nepal's resignation before entering into any discussions, the Nepali Congress (NC) and the Communist Party Nepal-Unified Marxist Leninist (CPN-UML) have been stressing on implementation of past pacts of fixing the number of UCPN-M combatants to be integrated, return of seized properties and disbandment of UCPN-M' s Young Communist League.
On May 28, the UCPN-M had struck three-point deal with NC and CPN-UML before lending their support, crucial for amendment bill, for the Constituent Assembly's term extension.
